We chose to go with Swiss style, as it represents simplicity and celebrates typography. The choice of colors is greatly restricted by the guidelines [1], so we can't blame Mateus for that either. (BTW, his previous proposal [2] proposed different colors.) Alex's designs don't actually follow these guidelines, and the designs will have to be changed if we want to consider them (as we've posted on the ml, g+, and fb). > > N.B.
