Olympic Pictograms

ge_science

Olympic pictograms are new nowadays. In 1964, Katsumi Masaru, together with a team of designers, created the first Olympic pictograms for the games in Tokyo. They combined ideas from Europe and kamon, traditional Japanese designs for family crests.
During the Tokyo Olympic Games, their pictograms were used in sports events as well as restrooms and restaurants. Moreover, some of the pictograms are now in use globally. Katsumi Masaru and the team of designers gave up their rights to these designs so that they would become international common property.
Ever since the Tokyo Olympic Games, the host countries have made different sets of pictograms. In the Olympic Games in Mexico in 1968, they applied colors from traditional Mexican art to their pictograms. Meanwhile, in Australia, boomerangs were added to their designs. In China, the pictograms were like calligraphy. For the London Olympics of 2012, the pictograms were similar to real pictures. Through time, Olympic pictograms may change but the Tokyo Olympic pictograms set the standard for the Olympic pictograms.
