Which new Emirates logo is your favorite?

Three logos designed by Emirati artists have been shortlisted in the competition — each unique and anchored by the culture, values and traditions of the UAE. It’s up to you to decide which logo wins! Members of the insydo team each have a favorite logo amongst the trio — here’s what we’ll be voting for…

The first logo:

I’m voting for this logo because… it screams ‘futuristic’! I love the simplicity of the design — seven clean lines in the shape of the UAE — and the way it represents the unity of the seven emirates. This logo is the most modern-looking of the trio, and I can see its longevity in moving the Emirates towards the next 50 years.

The second logo:

I’m voting for this logo because… I grew up in the UAE and the palm tree has always been a symbol of home. The Emirates might boast the world’s tallest building and other architectural icons, but this country remains grounded to its humble roots. That’s what I love most about this logo — it reminds me of Bedouin hospitality and where the UAE started from.

The third logo:

I’m voting for this logo because… Arabic calligraphy is an art form that’s appreciated by millions around the world. This logo takes ancient calligraphy and gives it a modern feel. Most importantly, it puts an important spotlight on the visual beauty of the Arabic language — it’s one of those things that needs no translation.
