Emirates Stadium Makeover

Will see how it looks in real life, but at the moment I also think the previous design was better.

I reckon 2 or 3 of these will look great. I like the concept behind most, not so keen on the execution on a couple though.

I'll take these over LEDs every day of the week fwiw and love the concept of using artwork around the stadium.

I like the 1885 one but is it just me or does it have 1940s Germany vibes?

As a fan on the other side of the world I like the display of all the foreign supporters clubs. Recognition that the fans are more than just those who are able to attend the stadium. I see the NZ supporters banner made it on too which is cool.

I like the idea of this, but it's kind of weird that they've run with these specific ones. You'd probably find better Arsenal artwork just looking through Instagram for half an hour.

Maybe it will look better in real life or it will grow on me. It like when you look at a kid's drawing and say it looks great, what you're really thinking is it looks shit.

Coombs

Very weird style. Like they had midjourney take the first crack at it.

Literally this. These murals are a bit amateurish, but they'll look okay from a distance and they respect the traditions.

But the "bulging shield" crest has looked dated since its inception, thing's been a blight for 20 years now, it's just so blatantly inferior to all the others we've had and has overpowering "90s Hyundai Excel" design vibes.

extremely unsubtle. Bleh.

Speaking of unsubtle.

It's mainly number 4, 5 and 6 I have issues with. Sure, I could make number 1 and 2 in Photoshop in an hour or so, but at least they look clean enough.

Edit: Didn't know we had Reddit embedding. Nice.

QuincyAbeyie It's mainly number 4, 5 and 6 I have issues with.

Only half of the designs then. 😜

But yeah, agree that those are the ones that look a bit off. Art style doesn't feel right for the imagery...too classical...?

goon

Yeah those are the one's i'm not so keen on either but maybe they'll look good supersized.

RocktheCasbah

goon I think that's it. I actually like all of it, but understand why they're not exactly blowing everyone away. But full judgement can only be made once you've seen them as intended, otherwise it's a bit like watching Top Gun Maverick on your phone and saying it looks rubbish.

Clrnc

I think it's because they were combined with the red emirates logo which camouflages into it as well.

I am not feeling number 2 as well, looks too contemporary and not well thought of.

Number 3 was really perfect

Qwiss

I like the arty ones much more than the text ones, they look terrible. Although the arty ones are pretty shoddy. Now I'm talking myself out of liking any of it. Definitely prefer the older art work. This stuff is tacky.

goon

Funnily enough the reaction everywhere else seems to be overwhelmingly positive, so I guess they weren't designed with the grumpy OMITT contingency in mind.

QuincyAbeyie

A five-year old could probably draw it up and Arsenal fans in general would praise it as long as it's Arsenal related.

RocktheCasbah

QuincyAbeyie How quickly we forget the Puma years...

goon

Mugs!

Mind you I don't remember many liking the concrete blocks we were presented with when the stadium first opened. I have no idea what they were thinking with that.

That Warner Bros badge just ruins everything
