Logo Throwdown: Place ? Edition
Cavazos site seems like a work in progress, and as the following only appears once there, at a low-res, we're making a leap in assuming this to be the official logo. But we like what we see.
The pink, aside from instantly transmitting Cavazos gender to voters, also subtly speaks to her Hispanic heritage through the southwestern color selection, while the star and type toughen things up a notch …
Rick Cofer's logo, however, is a little more problematic.
We understand what Cofer's going for here, the deep blue speaking to Cofer's Democratic roots, while the all-caps type and stars strive to convey authority. Just overly so. Dare I say it (sorry Rick), there's something almost Republican about the logo, like it belongs on the back of a mudded-up late-model pickup parked on a frat lawn in the West Campus.
Which brings us to the most unassailable design of the three, Chris Riley's (designed, it's noted, by a professional firm).
