Default New Cardiff Logo Design

The colours represent the city's waterfront and parks

A new logo has been unveiled to market Cardiff on the international stage, aimed at ditching the "stereotype" of daffodils and dragons.
Promoters say the brand, made-up of multi-coloured discs encircling the city's name, will mark Cardiff out as a "progressive" place to live and visit.
The £45,000 design was revealed to an audience of politicians and business leaders at the Wales Millennium Centre.
Cardiff & Co said it was a brand people in the city would be proud of.

wow how about some creative bullshit that explanation that was. This mark is just plain weak and completely underdeveloped. This looks like a stereotypical dot com boom logo, complete with circling dots and swooshy like arrangement.
