Coalition logo concepts

Four ideas for the Coalition logo. The last picture of each shows how a red-green colour-blind player sees it. The colours are the six parties' own.

1 · The hemicycle that won't add up

60 seats, one per starting delegate, in party order left to right, drawn the way real parliaments are. The dotted line marks 60% of them (36 seats), the coalition win line. No party gets near it alone: the biggest start with 15. Even the two centre parties together hold 30, 6 short. Real coalition countries draw their parliaments this way.

2 · The ring coming loose

The front-runner so far. No two rings are linked, yet pulling one out frees the other two. That is a three-party Government where one defection ends it. Round only, never triangles (three linked triangles are a hate symbol). Also shared with Ballantine beer and ThyssenKrupp, so it is the least ownable.

3 · Named by its colours

Germany says Ampel (traffic light) and Jamaika for coalitions, after their colours. Every game makes a different flag. Shown here: Liberal + Growth + Patriot, one of only two three-party Governments that start above 60%.

4 · Six symbols on an arc

India gave every party a plain object so voters could pick by sight. Shape plus colour, so it works printed in one colour or seen by anyone. The same six symbols can go on tokens, cards and seats.
