I originally posted this on insta back in 2022 but with the recent news of a badge update, I wanted to repost and reiterate my intentions behind the redesign and hopefully be part of the conversation for the new design. #nufc
My redesign was a genuine attempt from a designer and football fan to address a design challenge and improve the badge for use in a digital world.

We’ve all witnessed the errors made by other clubs in the premier league when updating a badge and I wanted to show how it could be done sympathetically and with the fans in mind.

Some quick paper sign practice with a classic phrase from an old showcard book. If any businesses open in Newcastle could do with something like this at the moment, drop me a DM with what you need and we’ll get it done. instagram.com/p/B_PZzx8AXLt/…
