The Design

About Diplomatic Relations Emblemo-Dezajno

Diplomatiaj Rilatoj estas emblemo kreita por la Germana Ambasado en Vilno. La dezajno simbolas la ligojn inter Litovio kaj Germanio. Inspirita de la trikoloraj naciaj flagoj, tri markoj estis desegnitaj por ĉiu lando en la koloroj de ĝia flago. La markoj kuras kiel du paralelaj flankoj, similaj al fervojaj reloj kiuj disiĝas kaj poste kunvenas denove. La ruĝaj markoj estas kombinitaj por reprezenti amikecon kaj unuecon. La kolora simbolo estas metita sur blankan fonon kaj povas esti aplikita al skribiloj, subĉiela reklamado kaj kompaniaj donacoj. Ripetante la simbolon en linio formiĝas ŝablono.

Unique Properties
The logo was created for the German Embassy in Vilnius to symbolize diplomatic relations between Lithuania and Germany. Inspired by tricolor national flags, three check marks were created for each country using the colors of their flags. The marks represent two parallel sides, like train tracks heading in opposite directions, but coming back together again and being connected. The red check marks are combined, representing friendship and unity between the two countries.
Dimensions & Packaging
To enhance the visibility of the logo and keep original colors, it was decided to use a colored symbol on a white background.

Production Technology
The symbol of Lithuanian German cooperation is easily applied to stationery, outdoor advertising and corporate gifts. Combining more symbols in one line creates a pattern that can be used in many places.
Design Challenge
After drawing numerous symbols, it finally came to a modern and memorable logo design which will be used by the German Embassy in Lithuania for its external communication, events and promotional goods.
Research
A national flag is the most easily recognizable country symbol, so while searching for similarities between the two countries, the same patterns stood out in their flags and it was decided to find symbols that could seamlessly utilize these patterns, hence the check marks became a logical design solution.
Inspiration
Lithuania and Germany are connected by a long, rich history. Bilateral relations between the two states existed from 1918 and again since 1991 when Lithuania regained its independence just a few months after the reunification of Germany and diplomatic relations were restored.
Project Duration
Started in January 2021 and finished February 2021 in Vilnius, Lithuania.
Operation Flow
The symbol highlights the relationship between the two countries by visually uniting the colors of their flags. The logo reflects the moment when two countries diplomatically unite, moving forward together into the future. The colorful marks provide a dynamic symbol, expressing the multifaceted relationship between Lithuania and Germany.
