New South Korean and Japanese NuBits need logos. Help us choose the right colors for these countries. Designers are free to suggest a refresh of NuBits’ logos, but the winner must include the current design allowing us to consider any refresh thoroughly.
Design Brief
NuBits are stable digital currencies. New South Korean NuBits and Japanese NuBits have been created. We need you to pick colors for them and produce infinitely scaling versions of all eight logo versions.
Refer to our existing logos for United States NuBits, Chinese NuBits, European NuBits, and X-NuBits. Note: SDR NuBits is now X-NuBits (XNBT).
Focus primarily on the color, and motivate why you chose each!
Updates
- Omit the hyphen from USNBT, KRNBT, ….
- Clearly distinguish new colors from existing colors, but stand strong with your choice if you believe in it.
Improved guidelines below!
Types
- New: South Korean NuBits (KRNBT)
- New: Japanese NuBits (JPNBT)
- United States NuBits (USNBT)
- Chinese NuBits (CNNBT)
- European NuBits (EUNBT)
- X-NuBits (XNBT)
- NuShares (NSR) – no hollow circle surrounding
- Nu – the decentralized autonomous organization, no hollow circle
Primary Objectives
- Create logos in vector graphics.
- Choose one color for South Korean NuBits.
- Choose another color for Japanese NuBits.
- Enable easy coloring for future adjustments and new products.
- Exclude shine from the logos.
- Optional: Open to a refresh, but winner must include a version with the old design along the new. Refer to cajva’s refreshed design as one that intrigues us.
- Optional: A design that scales down to favicon size would be perfect.
Design Requirements
- Logos for all six NuBits.
- Logo for Nu, the decentralized autonomous organization, in black.
- Logo for NuShares, in red without the hollow circle.
- Transparent, white, and black background must look good.
