San Jose State, which has featured gaudy court designs in the past (here), now has a new one (here). A couple thoughts on the new court, one pro and one con.
First, the array of lines, curves, and dots surrounding the Spartan logo is really innovative. One observer called this the "motherboard" court design, which also looks like a circuit board design. Given San Jose State's presence in Silicon Valley, the juxtaposition of the school logo and computer imagery is quite apt and clever.
Enough praise. I don't like that the entire court (except for inside the three-point arcs) is painted solid blue. Natural wood looks nice, so I wish a wood background could have been used somehow.
Thanks to the usual sources for bringing the San Jose State redesign to my attention.
