Apollon Kalamarias

Redesign + simplification of the crest + creation of a minimal signature (on the right) for Apollon Kalamarias.

A football club founded by Pontic Greeks -residents of Anatolia region- who escaped the Pontian Genocide by the forces of Turkey and moved in great waves to Northern Greece, in the region of Macedonia and mainly to its capital, Thessaloniki.

After seeing today's logo I thought it was a time for a brand refresh hence my design here! The Black color symbolizes the grieving for the loss of the Motherland and the Red color symbolizes the innocents' blood spilled there during the Pontic Genocide.

Hope it inspires you to bring some fresh air of change to your own local football club as well.
