The logo was originally intended to support Harvey’s private label program. With a small operation in the back of the store the company ventured into the mail order business in 1984. Within a year Flax moved its headquarters 10 miles south to Brisbane, providing the space needed to support the growing catalog business. The Flax brothers grew close to their customers, becoming well known for their generous support of struggling artists and the local arts. In a continuation of the Flax culture of engaging the artist community, participants in an annual catalog cover competition created all the catalog covers. And when you visit their store, take a look at their Wall of Fame where the catalog covers hang proudly. Later the logo was adopted and shared with the other Flax businesses across the country, who also used it for the joint Flax catalog (see below).

Artwork must be original and all mediums will be considered. Now, Flax is offering a contest to design the artwork for the masthead atop their Facebook page. The artwork that graced the FLAX art & design catalogs for over 20 years (1984 - 2007) was creative and intriguing. Harvey Flax, who ran the Los Angeles Flax store, commissioned a young designer named Louis Danzinger in 1949 to create a new trademark. Their original and legendary "F" logo, originally designed by respected graphic designer Lou Danziger, must be incorporated into the design and the winning designer will receive a $100 gift card as well as having their work featured on the Flax facebook timeline. Herman and Sylvia Flax, with their son Jerome, established Flax Artist's Materials in downtown San Francisco in 1938. Having lost virtually everything in the Great Depression, Herman took his family west from New Jersey and opened a tiny art supply store.

All published work becomes the property of FLAX art & design, with reuse of the work by the artist limited to self-promotion.
