I am both a permanent full-time resident and an architect deeply embedded in our Palm Springs design community. I would like you to consider a thoughtful process to create a truly appropriate branded image for the new PSP graphic. Please DO NOT compromise and quickly decide to just use one of the proposed poorly-conceived concepts that have been presented so far! In fact, please propose a branding process that will result in a concept that our Palm Springs community can embrace. Today I will fly internationally back to Palm Springs PSP Airport….and I’ll have pride that you’ll take these words into consideration.

Having read the brief and reviewed the proposed Aviatrix PSP Brand Presentation, I ask the City Council to reject the current proposal and continue work on the airport branding project. The submitted work does not show a deep understanding of Palm Springs design history, respect for the airport's architecture, or even outstanding graphic design solutions. The deformed PSP letters , in an attempt to simultaneously illustrate Palm trees and windmills, is awkward and amateurish. The colors seem random and garish. A 5-color palate (let alone an 11-color palate!) is not a solution. We all know Palm Springs is a design mecca. We must respect the heritage of the Golden Age of modern design and graphics of which Palm Springs is the world-class example. Airport branding, as an initial vibe-setter for the visitor, should reflect that. Thank you, City of Palm Springs This is an automated message generated by Granicus.

This garish, childlike idea from a San Diego PR company SHOULD NOT be used and the opportunity for a local brand professional be considered. This should have been open to local design professionals who understand our city. DO NOT APPROVE any one of these three proposals for PSP.

This is a revised version of my letter to the City Council I’m writing to provide public comment on Agenda Item 1O on the City Council Agenda for September 1, 2022. PALM SPRINGS INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT BRAND UPDATE Tom Dolle Palm Springs CA August 28, 2022 Dear City Council, I am a graphic designer and brand specialist, I ran a New York City design studio for over 30 years, and was an adjunct professor in Pratt Institute Graduate Communications Design for over 20 years. I have created dozens of branding and signage programs, including recent ones for Palm Springs Unified School District and DAP Health. I am currently the Creative Director at Destination PSP in Palm Springs. After reviewing the design brief (the section titled BACKGROUND) and resulting visual design solutions for the airport branding project, I strongly encourage the City Council to reject ALL of the proposed designs. The design brief is really a marketing brief to promote the airport. There is a big difference between “branding" a busy public transportation hub with a long-term solution like a logo and signage, and “marketing" the airport with short-term promotional solutions to build traffic and awareness. If this is in fact for the long-term branding of the airport with a logo and signage, it deserves much more public input and guidance from the design & architectural community. The Donald Wexler-designed main building is a Class 1 historic property, and any signage should be carefully considered. This project fails on a number of fronts: 1. None of the proposed designs takes airport way-finding signage into account. This is the primary use for most airport branding programs, to help travelers navigate the airport through a consistent use of color, typography, and graphic elements within the overall signage program. That would also apply to apps and websites used for airport information. None of the proposed logos are shown in expanded use this way. 09/01/2022 Public Comment Item 1O 2. If what is wanted from this program is really a marketing campaign with a logo, then the proposed designs should show how marketing concepts, images, videos, etc work together with the logo. T-shirts and airport buses are the least likely applications. 2. The design brief states: "The primary finding of their research was the need for the Airport to establish a vibrant, unique airport brand that best positions the Airport as the airport of the entire Coachella Valley." In all three designs, the words Palm Springs or PSP are the primary elements and the International Airport signifier is insignificant. The Palm Springs focus works well for marketing & promotion, but may not be the best solution for a logo. 3. None of the proposed designs take the architecturally significant Wexler-designed building into account. Travelers using the airport often mention that as the most memorable part of the airport. Statistics prove that our midcentury architectural heritage is a major draw for tourism dollars, and what sets us apart from other southwestern cities. 4. The monument signs outside the airport should be treated as part of the architecture, not as a place to slap a branded logo like it's a strip mall. 5. Certainly, design can be subjective. But the typography is generic, the S in designs #2 and #3 are awkward at best and totally indecipherable, and the color palettes are garish. 6. Why was a San Diego public relations and marketing firm hired for this project, instead of one of the many experienced, accomplished brand designers in the Valley? Their lack of understanding of our region, beyond the basic “palm trees and bright colors”, is obvious. None of these proposals rises to the level that we, in the design community, expect of a world- class city. It’s time that the City treat graphic design, signage, public art, and other elements of the visual landscape, with the same seriousness they are beginning to do with architecture. Good environmental design contributes to making Palm Springs special, which can be easily lost if we continue to accept mediocrity. Thank you for your consideration.

The Airport is not only of historical importance, architectural significance it is the Welcome to Palm Springs and sets the tone to what our city represents past, present and future. PSP is the gateway to the city. I believe the graphic branding design needs to be thought out on a deeper level and convey the cities deep history, importance of architecture, lifestyle and international attention. The design should be raised to a higher standard that will be timeless and make visitors new and returning to be lead with their first impression and be evoked by what they see. Palm Springs deserves better, this design is incredible important. Thank you for your time and consideration.

Dear Brent, We would like to give our opinion about the new logo/branding being considered for the Palm Springs Airport. We would ask that the council NOT APPROVE this design, or any of the proposed, as none of the offerings are up to the standards of graphic design and architecture in Palm Springs. Palm Springs is known for its design: architectural, fashion, food and fun. The airport building is an architectural icon that greets visitors to Palm Springs with a taste of what's to come on their visit. The logo should be in keeping with this high standard. When the right logo is offered up - everyone will agree that it best represents "PSP." We have several branding experts in our midst, right here in Palm Springs. Gary Wexler, son of Don Wexler (who designed the airport) , a talented graphic designer in his own right (he created the Lulu restaurant logo and murals that make that restaurant a #1 tourist destination) should be given a chance to submit a design. So should Tom Dolle, creative director of Destination PSP. The products he designs are sold in museum shops and fine stores around the world. These are not the only two, but the first names that come to mind. Thank-you for considering our opinion, and please let us know if this is the correct way to submit it so it will be read at the next meeting.

I am writing to express my concern about the proposed new logo for PSP. I working in strategy and innovation at Best Buy where my supervisor used to run silicon chip production for IBM. An important lesson he taught me is that you have to execute with 100% accuracy on every step of a process, because failing to do so, causes accelerating errors down the production line. I have two issues with logo design I saw and the creative brief. One, the brief describes the odd S as the 'trunk' of the palm tree leaves above it. I would argue that if you polled 100 travelers to PSP about what the S communicates to them, I would guess zero would call it the trunk. And second, the most accurate term is Stem not Trunk for a Palm Tree, something this firm should have researched.

All three designs are amateurish and the colors chosen are not reflective of Palm Springs. The first design with the italic lettering looks outdated and uninspired. It is not modern, clean, or elegant--quite the opposite. The second design with the crooked S just looks weird. What is the point of the crooked letter? Also, I don't think it's right to just use the airport code without the city name appearing anywhere. Plus, the colors chosen are all wrong for Palm Springs. The third design is the least 'bad' option, but it's still not great. The rounded letters of the airport code are again not reflective of the city, and the palm fronds look like flower petals. I do hope there is time and budget to reconsider these designs so we have a more appropriate representation of our city and our fabulous airport. Thank you.

The concepts submitted are woefully missing any level of sophistication and are instead based in "pop" culture. The colors and fonts are 2022 trendy, whimsical in style, and will not stand the test of time. We are a sophisticated town that is too often, today, being portrayed in a cartoonish fashion. Anyone of these and I understand staff recommends #3 will be dated looking in just a few years. Please redirect the designers to give it another round with focus on color and font. This is a good opportunity to offer a design competition and let the general public weigh in on the final choice. Thank you, City of Palm Springs This is an automated message generated by Granicus.

Dear Mayor and City Council. There is much chatter on social media regarding the proposed new branding logo for our airport. I concur with the dozens of comments I’ve read and hereby: I STRONGLY URGE YOU TO VOTE AGAINST ALL THESE PROPOSED LOGOS. From an aviation geek like myself, none of the proposed logos indicates “world class international airport”. The basic fonts, elementary colors and illegible design work is far from what should represent us. The airport facade is a Class 1 Historical building from a local architect, Donald Wexler. The proposed logos do not tie into the design of the facade, nor does it tie into the Gensler addition. The company issuing these garish ideas are not local….they are from San Diego with clearly NO idea of the richness of Palm Springs. Mountains, palm trees and colors: groundbreaking. The third (favored) design has an illegible “S” that is trying to be clever. It looks more like an ampersand giving the logo a “P & P” look which, in some circles, stand for “Party and Play” (let’s do drugs and have sex). Is THAT the statement you want to greet tourists. If this was an airport for a small town in the midwest, I can see how the proposals would be cute. For a world‐class International destination, they are basic, unimaginative and child‐like. We can do MUCH better. You can do MUCH better. Again, I urge not approving these.

None of them shows a level of sophistication and design intelligence equal to the subject. None of them offers a complete, integrated solution that includes directional and informational signage. It seems that they are confusing a logo for local advertising and marketing with the much more demanding and comprehensive project of graphic identity for what is an international destination. A high-profile, high-impact project of this nature demands a thorough and transparent process involving the local architectural and design community. Not a quickie logo turnaround from some airport trade shop in San Diego. Thank you, City of Palm Springs This is an automated message generated by Granicus.

To Whom it may concern, The logo's submitted for the airport are weak, and substandard. They're collectively lacking the aesthetic integrity of our past, present, and future. I would love to overlook this but it is impossible. I've noticed a great deal of public disappointment, and I must speak out. It will not take much to identify those worthy of being heard. We must raise the bar, and consider the input of a collective, elevated, and design savvy public. This will simply not do. Shortsighted, and not ready for prime time. Stop, and please listen to those reaching out. There is a wealth of brilliant, mindful professionals whom are in a better position to assess this. The collective outcry cannot be ignored. What has been submitted by the one firm is an embarrassment, devaluing what we are, and what we have to offer. Consider firming a committee, and greater public input. It's like someone is learning as they're going along getting on the job vocational training. Stop this at once, and step up.

It gauls me that the people I put my trust in don’t return that trust to the community they serve. The colors are horrific - Florida at best. And choosing PSP instead of our iconic brand “Palm Springs” is a ridiculous blunder. And then the angled S - I don’t even know what to say about that. Lastly the font should reflect this city’s biggest brand - mid century modern. Yet another shortsighted mistake by the few choosing for the population.

One has a palm tree that belongs on a tropical island, not in CV; one only has airport code with no identification of "Palm Springs," not to mention colors that are too garish (pink and purple? Really?); and the third, which I read is favored by airport staff, has a ridiculous "S" in the logo, but the best colors...maybe they should be used in the "plane to palm" design and add the words "Palm Springs." That would be my suggestion. Please, though, no pink and purple! Thank you, City of Palm Springs This is an automated message generated by Granicus.

I am writing to express my preference that the Palm Springs City Council SHOULD NOT APPROVE item ‘O’ on the consent agenda regarding the Palm Springs International Airport Brand Update. I have reviewed the 3 proposed designs presented by the consultant, and I am underwhelmed by all three designs. Nothing about them is inspiring. Nothing about them evokes any sense of connection to Palm Springs or the local communities. They look more like logos for a water park than branding for a desert resort destination. The money spent on these consultants for this product was wasted, in my opinion. The City Council should REJECT all three designs, and should either: a) direct the consultant to go back to the start and come up with new designs which truly reflect our airport as the entrance to a desert oasis, or b) terminate the consultant and put this out to bid with local talent who can create a branding logo and marketing campaign which would be more reflective of the desert oasis communities serviced by the Palm Springs International Airport.

Dear Palm Springs City Council: Palm Springs is a world-class destination that should be supported by world-class branding. The modern, sophisticated appeal of Palm Springs and our airport is unfortunately not reflected in the juvenile rendition of an airport logo on the agenda at this week’s City Council meeting. I urge the council NOT to approve this outdated logo. The color, font and overall design do not represent our city and airport, especially not in 2022. There are a plethora of talented graphic designers working in the desert. The out-of- town marketing firm’s presentation is a reminder of graphic design from the 1980’s. Graphic designer Gary Wexler should be considered to create the logo for the airport his father, architect Donald Wexler, designed. Please reject the proposed logo on the agenda today. Let’s go back to the drawing board and create a logo worthy of our city and our iconic airport architecture.

August 29, 2022 Dear City Council Members and City Staff, The Palm Springs International Airport is a Class I Historic site which seems to have evaded the notice of the Airport and the City Manager. Any rebranding of the Airport should include consultation with the broader community outside the Chamber and Tourism entities. Designed by modernist architect Donald Wexler, the Airport is one of Palm Springs most exceptional structures and any additions to it should uphold his high standard of design integrity. Unfortunately, none of the proposed designs come close to that. Aviatrix notes, “When taken as a whole, the new Palm Springs International Airport brand nods to the region’s iconic past while propelling the airport effortlessly into the future.” Their “nod” is based on a superficial understanding of our “iconic past.” The garish colors, cliché symbols, and strange fonts do not relate to the modern design of the building. It seems strange that Council is being asked to choose and vote for one of these brand designs without consulting members of the community who have a deep understanding of the City’s architectural history and the value of upholding its superior design legacy. I urge Council to table this agenda item and require the Airport to seek other submittals from designers who truly understand what is involved. Thank you for your consideration.

Tahquitz Canyon Way Palm Springs, CA 92262 Subject: Consent Calendar Item 1.O. Palm Springs International Airport Brand Update Dear Mayor Middleton, The Palm Springs Preservation Foundation would like to express our serious concerns about the subject consent calendar item, scheduled for discussion at your September 1, 2022 council meeting. The proposed new airport logo is appropriate for a Palm Springs medical marijuana facility. It is studiously inoffensive, colorfully kitschy, and has a bud of green sprouting from its top. It is entirely inappropriate for a locally loved historic building which serves as the gateway to the city. The logo is completely untethered from the historical context of the building and the sophisticated midcentury typography originally associated with the airport. While the staff report asserts that, “comprehensive research was…performed by the [logo and brand] consultant about area architecture, history, and design,” the results seem amateurish and “phoned in.” There also seems to be a misunderstanding on the part of city staff with regard to the subtle distinctions between “branding” (a longer-term effort) and “marketing” (a shorter- term effort reactive to changing economic conditions). We also understand that the city’s Historic Site Preservation Board was not consulted on this matter. Pursuant to city council Resolution #22480, the airport’s front façade was designated a Class 1 Historic Site (HSPB case #70) in May of 2009. Since the airport has already been identified as important, we hope you agree that its branding should have the appropriate gravitas. If you require any additional information, please contact PSPF at (760) 837-7117 or info@pspreservationfoundation.org.

Tahquitz Canyon Way, Palm Springs, CA 92262 RE: September 1, 2022 Agenda, Consent Calendar Item O. Palm Springs International Airport Brand Update Dear Members of City Council: As the City Council reviews the submittals for the International Airport Brand Update, please give careful consideration to the following factors: The Airport is an icon of the City of Palm Springs. Its distinctive form captures the optimistic, open spirit of the City that encompasses the Midcentury period down to the present day. With a view of Mt. San Jacinto and an interior lit by the warm desert sun, the visitor immediately knows they have arrived in Palm Springs. Additionally, architect Donald Wexler planned the airport so that it could expand as the population of the City and it’s numbers of visitors expanded. It is precisely for these reasons that the west side of the airport received a Class 1 Historic Site designation. I strongly recommend the designers proposing the new signage for the International Airport look to the iconic form of the building and honor that rather than deny it. Thank you for your kind consideration of these comments.

On the new logo and branding for our airport! I’m just finding out about this logo and re-branding this morning while I’m driving and I am quite frankly appalled! I have to admit I do not know all the details of how this rebranding/logo came about and why it would be going to any design group outside of the city is quite shocking! We have per capita one of the best cities for designers and architects. I myself have been in the logos/graphic design/re-branding industry for over 30 years mostly dealing with large nat’l sport complexes and Arenas. Also the Denver international airport and frontier airlines Since we first put A new logo and an animal graphic on the tail of their planes. Please do not move forward with this frozen yogurt stand logo. Thank you, Mitch Thank you, City of Palm Springs This is an automated message generated by Granicus.

Please do NOT approve ANY of the three pending designs for the new airport logo. They are all AWFUL! This process was NOT transparent and with so much great design talent here in town that could do a much better job it is unfathomable as to why you would go outside of Palm Springs for this most important assignment. It is CRITICAL this be done correctly as this will be the FIRST thing many visitors see and will represent our city for YEARS--if not decades--to come. So please table this decision and solicit additional design submissions in an OPEN and TRANSPARENT manner. Thank you!

I would like this considered by Council members at the meeting this week. ~~~~~~~~~~ Dear Mayor Middleton: I have reviewed the three options suggested for a new airport logo. In today's paper, I saw the current logo, printed in black and white. With years of experience in brand and corporate design, I assure you I support an update to what we currently have [or don't have]. I suggest this decision be delayed and that you respectfully ask the designer to revisit the options provided. In many ways, the current logo is preferable to the suggestions I've seen, albeit with appropriate Palm Springs colors. My specific comments: Window seat sounds good in description but shows nothing exciting about Palm Springs or the Valley. The focal point, Palm Springs in script, is dated; the current font is more iconic to the area. PSP as the focal point in the second option is just wrong. And the palm tree looks like a marijuana plant. Colors are monochromatic and uninviting. The last option is too 'cute' and will beg the question 'what is that thing on the left'. We can do better than this. Thank you for your consideration.

It is appalling how bland, how lifeless, how invisible this work is and there is no salvaging it. I beg you not to settle for this mess. There are many talented design professionals in Palm Springs.

We have a stunning mid century modern architectural airport that should be referenced and referred back to in any branding style for this area. To me the design feels more “Margaritaville” rather than a classier “Riviera” vibe which better represents our valley.

To members of the City Council, I write to express my objection to the new logo and branding being proposed for Palm Springs International Airport. Our airport, designed in 1966 by architect Donald Wexler, is one of our city's greatest mid- century modern structures. It is also the first glimpse of Palm Springs's treasure trove of mid- century modern architecture for the multitudes of visitors who fly here from around the world. As such it deserves branding and signage in keeping with its innovation, character, and sophistication. The word mark "Palm Springs" in Option 1 of the 3 being considered is too basic and dated and certainly does not represent the progressive, forward-thinking city that we love. The proposed logo in Option 2 is garish and amateur-ish. The palm tree on the left resembles a cannabis leaf and the slanted "S" looks like a snake, which surely many visitors would prefer to avoid, and makes it difficult to read PSP clearly. Option 3, the weakest of them all, is undoubtedly meant to be "fun" but again it is hard to read PSP clearly, instead reading as PDP, and once more the palm tree looks like a cannabis leaf. In all 3 options the color choices seem arbitrary and have no relationship to the airport's architecture or to the colors of our city, which is strongly identified by the green of palm trees, cactus, and other vegetation, and the blue of our big open sky. I understand that these 3 logos were designed by an out-of-town firm and clearly their understanding of Palm Springs and its attributes is superficial at best. I strongly recommend that City Council delay its decision on a new logo and instead approach Gary Wexler, a renowned Palm Springsgraphic designer AND the son of the airport's architect Donald Wexler, to develop new, and more appropriate options for a new logo for the airport. Palm Springs has positioned itself, thanks to many who have served on City Council in recent years, as a progressive city that looks to the future while celebrating its legendary modern past. A new logo for the airport, the first place visitors to our city experience, should do the same. Respectfully, Brooke Hodge Independent Curator and Writer and Former Director of Architecture and Design at Palm Springs Architecture Museum -- Brooke Hodge 9/1/2022 Public Comment Item 1O 9/1/2022 Public Comment Item 1O August 31, 2022 Dear City Council, I am writing regarding the Palm Springs International Airport Brand Update, Agenda Item 10, September 1, 2022. Please include this in the public comments section. As a Palm Springs resident from 1982-2007 and again from 2019-present, I am sorry to see that the level of understanding of architectural significance and design excellence remains low. The proposed new brand for the airport does not recognize the significance of the Wexler-designed building, nor does this new branding reflect the uniqueness of this airport. In addition, the three options presented do not rise to the higher level of design that the creative Palm Springs community has come to expect of itself. We are a community of passionate preservationists and sophisticated design aficionados and professionals. Our brand demands better. Please don’t accept one of these uninspired logos for the airport. With regards, Janice Lyle, Ph.D. Former director, Palm Springs Art Museum Former director, Sunnylands 873 N. Cerritos Drive Palm Springs, CA 92262 9/1/2022 Public Comment Item 1O August 31, 2022 Mayor Middleton, Mayor Pro Tem Garner, Councilmembers Holstege, Kors, Woods, The proposed three options for branding the Palm Springs International Airport do not rise to the high level of design excellence that this iconic property deserves and should be rejected. The staff report states that these logo and signage designs are key elements of the long-term branding of the airport. That is why it is the considered opinion of the Palm Springs Modern Committee board of directors that such an important process deserves much more public input and guidance from the local design & architectural community who have a much better understanding of the iconic history and important qualities that make the Coachella Valley an utterly unique worldwide destination. Equally important, the Donald Wexler-designed main building is both a Class 1 Historic Site and is listed in the National Register of Historic Places. Because of this, new branding signage should be much more carefully considered. Therefore, the Palm Springs Modern Committee board urges you to reject the proposed designs and recommends that the Department of Aviation expand the branding process to include additional input from the local design and architectural community. Thank you.

Dear Mayor Middleton and Council members, I am writing to urge your rejection of any of the proposed new logos for the Palm Springs International Airport presented in the staff report, item 1O for this Thursday’s council meeting. There are many concerns relating to this item, not the least of which is that this project began as an awareness campaign, not a rebranding. The firm that created these ’top three’ are not from the valley, and it shows in their work. Please listen to the community of architecture and design folks who have worked for years on nurturing the identity and the brand of Palm Springs. Tom Dolle, Gary Wexler, David Dixon, and many others can more eloquently explain what is so wrong with the designs proposed, but I want to make sure you’re aware that many of us are strenuously opposed to this. Furthermore, it’s my opinion that it's a shame that the misguided airport branding project is being done as a stand-alone. The City does not have a logo... you use the Seal of the City as a logo, and it is NOT one. (It contains a GRADIENT!) The Police Department does't have/use an official city logo either, instead relying on the shield-shaped embroidered patch that adorns their uniforms next to a photo of their badge. The list goes on. A comprehensive branding for the entire city and all of its departments makes sense and is long overdue and it should be done by a local designer.

Dear City Council ‐ I'm sure that the city (and WE, the city residents) has paid a healthy fee to Aviatrix Communications. In exchange there are three possible logo options. It seems that the city officials have fallen for a line of hooey ‐ "propelling the airport effortlessly into the future" ‐ WHAT? Two of the three totally obscure "PSP." Don't we want something that is immediately recognizable? The third option, where the city's name is spelled out in a cursive font, is very trite, but if we have to use one of the three designs submitted (and really ‐ must we?) this would get my vote. This is a very disappointing state of affairs.

My specific concerns: the typefaces in all three designs are generic and are not responsive to the design brief instructions to establish "a vibrant, unique airport brand;" the City awarded the design contract to a firm not located within the Coachella Valley, resulting in artwork that does reflect the very things that attract people to this magical place; and finally, none of the concepts presented give me a sense that the artist was inspired by a personal connection to this place - and isn't the point of creating artwork to use in marketing, branding, signage, and publicity to evoke a personal connection that reflects the magic of this area? Art is subjective, to be sure, and must be interpreted individually, but this is not art for the purpose of artistic expression and must be viewed in light of how it will represent the charm, quirkiness, and allure of Palm Springs. On that measure, it fails, wholly,. Thank you, City of Palm Springs This is an automated message generated by Granicus.

Dear City Council- We urge yuu to NOT APPROVE the current logo in your session on Sept 1. Please instead go back to the drawing board with a new designer that understands the significance of why so many have flocked to Palm Springs and why our airport is so special!!! The logos submitted hardly display the level of sophistication and architectural heritage that has made our city and it’s airport so popular with the rest of the world!!! Why not instead turn to an individual like Gary Wexler - whose father Donal Wexler designed the airport. Gary is a local and an excellent designer. In addition- we have other local designers who are truly excellent at their craft ,like Tom Dolle. Please we urge you not to brand our airport so swiftly with the wrong logo- it would be a travesty!!! Thank you for your consideration.
