Eurovision revamp !
https://www.designweek.co.uk/issues/25-november-1-december-2019/eurovision-2020-identity/
The Eurovision song contest 2020 has unveiled a “colourful” and “abstract” visual identity, created by Utrecht-based design studio Clever Franke.
The identity is based around a circular logo which “honours” the competition’s history and is inspired by this year’s “inclusive” tagline, ‘Open Up’, according to the studio.
The annual singing competition was started 10 years after the World War II with the aim of uniting Europe through music. The next competition will take place in Rotterdam in May 2020 (Good luck with that one !)
Pantone colour of the year announced

Pantone ? No, not those pretty boxes of Christmassy cakey things (That's Panettone!) but PANTONE, an international company that sets standard & regulations for colours in design and across all areas of industry.
Pantone ? No, not those pretty boxes of Christmassy cakey things (That's Panettone!) but PANTONE, an international company that sets standard & regulations for colours in design and across all areas of industry.
The American colour company, which chooses a shade every year, says that it is a “timeless and enduring hue elegant in its simplicity”.
“We are living in a time that requires trust and faith,” says Leatrice Eiseman, executive director of Pantone. “It is this kind of constancy and confidence that is expressed by Pantone 19-4052 Classic Blue, a solid and dependable blue hue we can always rely on.”

Open all hours ...?
Ever thought provoking, elusive street artist Bansky is behind a shop in Croydon called Gross Domestic Product.
Although people will be able to visit the store for the next two weeks, its doors will never open and the lights will remain on 24 hours a day. Items on display in the shop, which are only available to buy online, range in price from a £10 signed spray paint can to a handbag made from a house brick.
“A greetings cards company is contesting the trademark I hold to my art, and attempting to take custody of my name so they can sell their fake Banksy merchandise legally,” he said. “I think they’re banking on the idea I won’t show up in court to defend myself.”
Items being sold in the shop include a Union Jack stab-proof vest worn by the rapper Stormzy during his Glastonbury performance and a model of Frosties cereal character Tony the Tiger, re-imagined as a rug. Welcome mats made from life vests salvaged from the shores of the Mediterranean, which have been hand-stitched by women in detainment camps in Greece, are also on display
“The proceeds from these products will go towards buying a new migrant rescue boat to replace the one confiscated by Italian authorities,” Banksy said
