Nice and clean. I really appreciate your excellent work on type (which is? custom? many thanks:-).

admarcbart said on Oct. 31 '07

Dache this does not read well at all on its own, the viewer would have to have the description to understand this mark.

If you used a roman typeface it might help sell this idea a little more.

dache said on Oct. 31 '07

Thanks Thomas, its Kontrapunkt and a custom roman numeral.

admarcbart, I think you may have a different vision to that of the viewer, you see this logo out of context and have seen all the concepts for this till now.

OcularInk said on Oct. 31 '07

I like your concept. It's a great idea. However, I somewhat agree with Bart. Also, wouldn't this be more of a logo for a company named 'SHARP'? To me, the roman numeral is'nt recognizable enough to stand as a 5. What if you add the word 'five' somewhere? Maybe right above the roman numeral. Just some thoughts.

dache said on Oct. 31 '07

Hello Kevin, thanks. I was thinking perhaps an URL in the tagline. This is just an idea I wished to explore before completing the project. My clients and myself are still swaying towards "this concept":http://logopond.com/gallery/detail/18972
I've updated it somewhat, will post on LogoPond when available for public viewing.

I like this one the best, it's the most unique. I don't know how hard it is to understand... I got it right away but that might be because I've seen the other versions & knew the name already.

wouldn't most things that have the logo have the name also? (Bizcards, letterhead, etc.) I think it works!

This was the first time I've seen your line of concepts, and I would never have assumed it read "Five Sharp". Whatev.

graphic design and marketing company - they should be a lot more clear with their identity - are they ok with hiring other people for the service they are providing?

Either way this overtly novel and not strong enough to send a message outside of confusion.

(i still love you dache)

zuhumina said on Nov. 03 '07

i dont get it .... would it not be stronger with the v not being encapsulated by the two lines ... since 5 is V

dache said on Nov. 04 '07

Thanks for the comments.

@amyblandford : Some people choose to understand sometimes ;^)

@kult house : Whatev.

@raja : Overtly novel, oh well :^) Yes, as mentionned it is a work in progress.

@zuhumina : I sympathise that you don't get it.

LOGOMOTIVE said on Nov. 04 '07

Dache, while I think this is a clever idea, I don't think it's working at all. Yes we understand but will the general public?.. probably not. I feel it reads as SHVRP if that. But nice idea anyhow.

dache said on Nov. 05 '07

Yes, as mentionned it is a work in progress.

zuhumina said on Nov. 05 '07

Ummmm ,,,, you sympathise .. or you cant explain ... you seem to give but cant receive ... a work in progress must progress ... or rather you choose to digress ... the arrow actually indicates the direction of the logo ...

and to quote ... dache - No need to get personal ..?

or is it not homogeneous to the centuries roman numerals .... ????

zuhumina said on Nov. 05 '07

Actually i apologise for my rant so before you decide to .... red card me ... i would like to say ....

dache said on Nov. 06 '07

zuhumina, feel free to email me your opinions from now on instead and Ill be sure to help you understand.

zuhumina said on Nov. 06 '07

a riot u are indeed ... i would email you but its so much easier to post here ....

the question i ask is ... why have you closed up the top of the "v" and have the line at the bottom ....

perhaps this is easier for you to understand ....

http://maryt.files.wordpress.com/2007/03/roman_numerals_complete.jpg

note the character of the equivalent character to 5! Im trying to understand why yours is different ...

My question is ... does the dash/middle bar of the a not work better with a V ..... Even with a line underneath from the centre of the V TO THE end of the word enhances a pencil graphic .... denoting more of a creative studio ... perhaps cliche but im sure you get the point .... perhaps ...




zuhumina said on Nov. 06 '07

perhaps ... u are misunderstanding me ... the concept i love but not understanding the V being closed
