The emblem of the Winter Paralympic Games is a leap. Its design adheres to the concept of displaying the culture of the host country and embodying the athlete-centered, and combines the calligraphy art of China with the sports characteristics of the Winter Paralympic Games.
The design shows the dynamics and strength of Chinese characters flying, skillfully transforms them into an athlete who slides forward and rushes to victory, and vividly expresses the form of special sports equipment such as wheelchairs in the Winter Paralympics.
Renewal of the emblem of the Winter Paralympic Games
The IPC revised and updated its logo on June 20 19. Taking this as a reference, the emblem of Beijing 2022 Paralympic Winter Games, the combined graphics of Winter Olympics and Paralympic Winter Games were updated and officially announced to the public on September 6, 2020.
After communicating with the IPC, the updated contents include: redrawing and coloring the three arc elements of the IPC logo in the lower part of the emblem, which is consistent with the new IPC logo, and removing the Paralympic English words in the old version of the emblem to inject new vitality into the emblem.
The biggest change this time is to remove the English words of Paralympic Games. Lin Cunzhen, director of the image and landscape art of the Cultural Activities Department of the Beijing Winter Olympics Organizing Committee, believes that the overall shape of the emblem is very simple after removing the line referring to the English Paralympic Games, which is more convenient for subsequent extension and application.
