The design features a bold, stylized logo for the Ohio State University. The main design element is the word "OHIOSTATE" written in a distinctive, uppercase, sans-serif font. The letters are bold and feature a slight arch, giving the design a dynamic and energetic feel. The color scheme is a striking combination of red and gray, with the text "OHIO" in a bright red hue, and "STATE" in a darker gray. The design is framed within an octagonal border, which is filled with a pattern of red and gray shapes that give it a textured, three-dimensional appearance. The overall effect is a strong, memorable emblem that effectively communicates the identity of the Ohio State University.
