Christiania bikes logo sketch

Sketches from the development of the visual identity for cargo bike pioneer Christiania bikes.

Re-design of the Christiania Bikes logo The history of Christiania Bikes is linked to the history of the self-proclaimed, autonomous neighbourhood Christiania in Copenhagen, Denmark. Christiania was established in 1971, when an area of the old military barracks in Copenhagen was squatted by young activists wanting to create an alternative society. Today the neighbourhood functions as a small village where all the inhabitants participate in Christiania related decision making. One of the earliest Christiania rules was a ban on cars in the area. In the 70's a bike-repair shop was established in Christiania, and here the classical Christiania carrier bike was developed. Today Christiania Bikes is known internationally. — The Christiania Bikes logo has traditionally re-used the three dots seen in the official Christiania flag. This flag consists of three equally spaced yellow dots placed next to each other on a red background. For the re-design of the Christiania Bikes logo, the text was redrawn. Additionally the second dot was moved slightly to the right, so that the three dots graphically resemble the three wheels on the carrier bike.
