    Anyone seen the new paddy power shop rebrand ?

    Passed by one store last night and it was rebranded to this so they must be rolling it out.

    Personally i think its an abysmal design theres nothing fresh about it, under construction comes to mind.

    I can't see them hiring a five year old for brand redesign, to be honest.

    Pad power sounds like a certain product for women...

    I like it. I find it aesthetically pleasing on the eye.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 655 ✭✭✭HurtLocker


    More likely someone decided to use WordArt.

    I hate rebranding. Looking at you club.

    I think it's good for a 5 year old......didn't go inside the writing with the green crayon.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,396 ✭✭✭✭Frank Bullitt


    Quite awful.

    And cost them quite a bit.

    Ha Ha me too. I thought by using the words "aesthetically pleasing" it was obvious I was taking the mick. ;)

    No he's right. The green stripes are like one of those magic eye pictures. If you cross your eyes and rock in and out from the screen, there she is. Go on, give it a go.

    It can be anything you want it to be.

    Pad Power? Surely the extra 'dy' wouldn't have taken you much longer to type.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 43,028 ✭✭✭✭SEPT 23 1989


    Really is bad,who actually signs off on a design like that?:confused:

    i think the 'dot' implies the rest afaik. stupid design is stupid.

    Bland. Unremarkable, unappealing.
    'Generic shop' in small letters, in light grey on a medium grey background would be better.
    Give me some alphabetti-spaghetti and I'll s.hit a better sign.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,235 ✭✭✭✭Cee-Jay-Cee


    It looks like it was done on MS Paint. That's cut backs for ya!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,417 ✭✭✭ToddyDoody


    I've always found the name to be a bit racist


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 26,899 ✭✭✭✭BBDBB


    ..........and suddenly I am determined to spend my money gambling, powerful stuff this rebranding malarky


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,829 ✭✭✭Nemeses


    Is their website going to be rebranded too I wonder - could do with an overhaul to be honest.

    I know you're talking about Club Orange (you're right, their rebranding has been disastrous, they need to change advertising agency).

    But whatever happened them Club biscuit bars, remember in the yellow pack? They were delicious, can you still get them anywhere?

    Paddy Power sounds like the Irish version of the EDL.
