Logo Design Information
The custom logo designs had gone through more than a dozen revisions, reflecting Wilson’s ideas in unifying the images of the magnets in the Main Ring accelerator. The finished product, combining images of both the dipole and quadrupole magnet laminations and apertures, has served as a mark for features of the laboratory ranging from experiments to buildings to letterheads.
With such determined emphasis on the physical appearance and the representational images of the laboratory, Wilson created a strong template for subsequent generations of design and designers at Fermilab. But time has a way of leaving its own legacy, in the form of rounded corners and softened edges, wandering borders and shifting colors, fuzzy reproductions and altered proportions-or in an unanticipated explosion of possibilities, such as the Internet.
