Whistling Straits logo and symbol, meaning, history, PNG
- Here’s what the corporate legend tells us.
- enjoy the picturesque landscape.
- The day was exceptionally blustery, even for this windy piece of land.
- Kohler must have been in a somewhat lyrical mood as, instead of curses (or simultaneously), the words “Whistling Straits” came to his mind.
- Symbol Now, it was time to create a Whistling Straits logo.
- To convey the meaning, the author of the logo went back to pagan times, when people believed that forces of nature were represented by different goddesses and gods.
- The character depicted on the logo appears to be a god of wind.
- His lips are rounded to produce the wind blowing all around the Whistling Straits.
- There’s a certain roughness to his face (or should we say “muzzle”?
- ), and yet, he’s not appalling.
- All the hair growth is “blown” to the sides, as if by the wind, in a symmetrical and rather elaborate manner.
- The word “Whistling” in capitals can be seen above, while the lettering “Straits” is placed below.
- The letters in “Straits” are separated from each other by tiny rhombuses – the effect used apparently to make the lettering longer, equal to the length of “Whistling.” Versions There’s hardly any information about the evolution of the Whistling Straits logo.
- And yet, you can come across slightly different versions.
- For instance, on the poster for the PGA Championship held in August 2015, the face of the wind god is made up out of clouds, between which the blue sky can be seen.
- The emblem has appeared on a variety of products and types of surfaces, including collectible coasters, embroidered flags, cufflinks, and metal gates.
- The Whistling Straits logo has a lot of tiny details and color nuances.
- Each time, it has been slightly modified to fit the type of material (textile, metal, plastic, etc.).
- So, we can’t talk about an “old” and a “new” logo but rather about its versions created to fit specific contexts and existing simultaneously.
- It can be a modified version of the JT Alvito Regular font, which was developed by JAM Type.
