Worst Logo "Wins"

While "excellent" is a word that describes most winning logos, "excrement" is closer to the mark in this case.

The How Low Can Your Logo? contest challenged designers to create the worst logo possible that meets a fictional client's brief. The mock client, Excellencico, requested a logo that's "simple and yet detailed, complex yet spare... 'Just right' is the vibe we are looking for."

There were almost 1,500 entries, which ranged from bad to worse; you can see them all here.

The judges must have had a hard time separating the chaff from the chaff, but at last, the winners have been declared:

Winner: John Herd [Mmm, Hobo.]

First runner-up: Jesse Andrew Tilley

Second runner-up: David J Swift

Third runner-up: Jason Jones

Fourth runner-up: Brian LaRossa
