Google Design Competition

At Google, we like to reflect the ever changing world of our users through the logo designs on our homepage. These "doodles" celebrate different people, events or special dates and, until now, have been designed by our original Doodler, 29-year-old Dennis Hwang.
The 'Doodle 4 Google' competition asks young people across the UK to design their own doodle. Last year, thousands of children created doodles that represented to them what it meant to be British today. The winning doodle was displayed on the Google UK homepage for a day, and was seen by around 18 million people.

This year's 'Doodle 4 Google' competition asks pupils to create a doodle around idea of 'My Community' and what it means to them. We're interested in the people, places and groups that make up the communities around the UK today.
Our judging panel will select their favourites, but we will then ask the British public to choose the doodle that means the most to them. Once again, this will become our Google doodle for a day, and the winner will also receive a trip, for their family, to the Google headquarters in California.
