A New Symbol for Europe, Winner!

The current European flag with its twelve identical yellow stars placed in a circle on a blue field, was designed in 1955. Since then Europe has changed. Design Den Haag Foundation asked designers to submit their ideas for a new symbol for Europe. Here are my submissions.

Current EU Flag:

Submission 1:

Using the original flag colors, I've transformed the design into a modern representation of community. Using yellow to represent members of the EU and white to represent the rest of the world. The EU coincides with the rest of the world and forms a unifying sphere.

Submission 2:

The spherical shape represents community. The gradient touched by light at the front represents the power of the unity of the EU. The visual feeling of motion represents constant evolution and movement forward of this unity.
