Olympic Torch - London 2012

*Cue Olympics Theme Song*

The 2012 London Olympic Torch has arrived! A symbol of the months leading up to the opening ceremony, the Olympic Torch is a beautiful piece of work that should get more recognition for its design. This prototype torch for the 2012 summer games was created by Edward Barber and Jay Ogersby, two industrial designers from England.

The torch features 8,000 dots that represented the 8,000 people who will help carry the torch to its new home in London.

It is a well-crafted, simple, and elegant design that I’m sure will look great no matter where it is or who holds it!
