Oliver Lincoln Lundquist, architect and industrial designer who led the team that created the United Nations logo, died on Sunday. He was 92.
The distinctive blue in the design, Mr. Lundquist explained, was "the opposite of red, the war color." He continued, "It was a gray blue, a little different than the modern United Nations flag."
