America’s Semiquincentennial Logo

Uniting the US under a single 250th anniversary logo as well as possibly working in the word “semiquincentennial” feels like an unenviable challenge. But Sagi Havav, partner with Chermayeff & Geismar & Haviv, sidestepped the multi-syllabic word and instead created a flowing, ribbon-like logo that forms the number 250 in a single red, white, and blue stroke.

In an article with The Seattle Times, Haviv explains how his team undertook the challenging project. From the article: “It’s almost an impossible construction,” Haviv said of the design, which twists around itself like a Möbius strip. “I think that has an additional level of meaning, because bringing people together today is almost an impossible task, but the result is beautiful.”
