There is a new survey with some design proposals for the themes “European Culture” and “Rivers and Birds”.
There is a new survey with some design proposals for the themes “European Culture” and “Rivers and Birds”.
They’re very similar, either people, buildings or birds as main designs and feels boring as well as the designs being mainly ugly. Some are nice but don’t feel inclusive for all of Europe. I feel like the designs should be more generic to be inclusive of all countries, so no famous people or country-specific buildings/geography. I like the EU stars, constellations, the map of Europe, symbols of what Europe represents.
Birds are a pretty good motif because a small selection of them might already span the whole continent (don’t know if that’s specifically the case here), disregarding any borders. They also lack representation in a part of the world where people classify themselves mostly as either a dog or a cat person.
That they are similar isn’t surprising, the motifs for the two possible themes where selected by the ECB over a year ago.
