DCE presents European Championships 2007 logo
After 'The Castle' and the Erasmus Bridge, another Rotterdam symbol now forms the basis of the DCE Championships. The artist Peter Franken has designed a European Championships logo for Drum Corps Europe that focuses on the well-known cube houses.
"After the theme of sport (the historical Sparta Stadium in 2005) and bridges and water (Erasmus Bridge in 2006), I have chosen architecture as the third theme in the 'Rotterdam' series", explains Peter Franken. "I have always chosen a theme that typifies the city. Rotterdam is full of examples of modern architecture, but I had to choose something that is easily recognised as being from Rotterdam and which is still recognisable after being stylized."
The cube houses, with their unusual shape and line pattern, were chosen. "The colour scheme fits in with the series, but is a tad different from the previous two. The colours are cheerful again in any case", adds Franken.
Once again, Drum Corps Europe is delighted with the design and would like to thank Peter Franken for his creative work. The logo will be incorporated in the design of the champions flags, the patch and other items of the DCE Championships.
