Brighton District 150th Celebrations

This year the District of Brighton celebrates 150 years of settlement. Last year in preparation I worked with the 150th committee and designed a logo for the year long event.

So this post is about the Brighton District 150th logo design process.

A few years ago I worked on designing a logo for the newly formed Big Rock Boardriders (Brighton Based). Below are the final two designs. The one on the Right was adopted.

The one on the left has a silhouetted and colour shadowed "Big Rock" landform which divides Brighton from Ocean View, you can see it in the photo below, saddle hill in the background, and then the banner below the photo is taken from the top of Big Rock with Brighton on the left with the beach, and then Ocean View far to the right.


I had the photoshop document of this rejected surf club logo, so I picked the concept up again and evolved it into a few different designs for the committee to comment on. Below, they eventually decided on number 1 as seen at the top of this post.

It has now been developed into a bumper sticker to be given out or sold over the year, and the logo used on different local clubs' activities in 2011. The Brighton Pony club is using them on certificates very soon.
Below logo used in the Taieri herald for the
Brighton Gala Day beginning this weekend.

Below a couple of old Brighton Postcards.
