Fiorentina

I rebound this interesting playoff with my favorite football team.

ACF Fiorentina is the football club from Florence (Firenze) founded in 1926. The main color is purple (so club's nickname is "Viola", purple), while the emblem comes from Firenze's symbol, a red lily flower on white field.

Fiorentina got some important trophies in its history, but not as many as Milan, Juventus or Inter… unfortunately. Anyway, in this glorious club, from one of the most beautiful cities in the world, there were great top players like Giancarlo Antognoni, Roberto Baggio, Effemberg, Brian Laudrup, Gabriel Batistuta, Manuel Rui Costa, Mutu, Toni and Jovetic (now).

You can see the original and actual emblem here. On redesigning it I was inspired by the older emblems of Fiorentina, more simple and geometrical (sample).
