1957–1969

Sveriges Radio TV

In 1957, the Swedish broadcaster Radiotjänst changed its name to Sveriges Radio. The television service changed its name to Sveriges Radio TV. During the 1950s and 1960s, Sweden had only one television channel, and hence no apparent need to distinguish it from other channels. As a channel logo they used Sveriges Radio's distinctive SR logo.

As a station ident, they used an art deco image of central Stockholm.

1980–1996

SVT TV1 1

Sveriges Television (SVT) was created in the late 1970s to run the two state-controlled television channels, which up until that point had been a part of Sveriges Radio. SVT received its first logo in 1980. It was designed by Sid Sutton and came with logos for each of the channels.[1]

The logos consisted of three-striped letters. The stripes were coloured red, blue and green, but the logos could also be seen in one colour.

On 31 August 1987, TV1 was renamed Kanal 1 as part of a reorganisation within SVT which moved most programmes made in Stockholm to the first channel, while all programmes made around the country were placed in TV2. With the new name came new graphics which was probably one of the first attempts at creating a more elaborate cohesive design for the channel.

The last look for Kanal 1 was introduced in 1994. The most significant part of this look was the reintroduction of the in-vision continuity announcers.

SVT1

1996

SVT1 1996-1

In January 1996, the organisations behind SVT's two channels were merged and they were renamed SVT1 and SVT2.

As a result of the merger, the channels got new logos and graphics on January 8, 1996. For the following five years, the graphics would be completely generic and identical on both channels, with the exception of the logo. Indeed, SVT made no effort to distinguish the channels on the programming side either. The first logos had the SVT logo in a black rectangle with the channel's numeral in a blue or green box.

1996–1997

SVT1 1996-2

The first incarnation of the merged channel structure's identity was short-lived and was replaced after ten months in October 1996. The new version was more elaborate and came with a new orchestral theme music and new channel logos. The logo was in circle.

1997–2001

SVT1 1997

Yet another logo change was made in the Spring of 1997. This time, the numerals were put on top of blue balls.

British design agency English & Pockett were chosen to create the new identity, which was centered around a new corporate symbol, However, the "starflower", created by Darrell Pockett and Timothy Wilkinson.[2][3]

SVT1's logo and graphics got orange and red colours. A big sofa was created for the idents, which featured presenters from the channel.

Both SVT1 and SVT2 used two logos during this period: A simpler logo with a numeral and the starflower in a square, and one logo which was used for idents featuring the starflower in the middle with the channel name to its left.

From January to October 2003, SVT1 still used this logo while SVT2 given a new look.English&Pockett rebrands Sveriges Television
