gareth, cool based on your info here I'd say you nailed it. H/E new and Y/E old. The style of the plug is very old perhaps square (roundish square as in newer style plugs) just the top one up and I think it would really strengthen the overall concept up. Would make more sense IMO.I like.

Cheers dude.

Your totally right, but in this is for industrial electricians that go around setting up the site electrics so that the different trade workers have a power supply for their tools. I work in construction as well as freelance graphics so I am lucky enough to know that industrial plugs are different to domestic plugs. They are 110volts which is safer and also look like this:

They are also coloured yellow so that they can be seen clearly on site, so for the logo it was an obvious colour choice :)

I should've included that in my description but I've worked near on 80 hours between both jobs this week so I am way too tired!

P.s. the above information is correct in the UK only to my knowledge, may be different for you guys over the (logo) pond, I've yet to work on a site in the states :)

logomotive said on Oct. 17 '08

Yeah, that must be it. I'm also a licensed contractor in California USA (11years in construction) and my first impression was an older style plug, so my bad You did well then Kudos.

logomotive said on Oct. 17 '08

Gareth, yeah different flies on this side LOL!

itsgareth said on Oct. 17 '08

Nice one Gareth!

Matheus said on Oct. 18 '08

I like squares so this works fine for me. And the Y is a nice inside-meaning

itsgareth said on Oct. 31 '08

Updated with final type solution.

OcularInk said on Oct. 31 '08

Do the math. They're different anyway.

That's all folks.

I like the 'stacked' arrangement, Gareth.

fogra said on Aug. 01 '09

^^ Very subtle.

dbunk said on Aug. 01 '09

Nice symmetry on the type, H and N could also have a similar balance

lundeja said on Aug. 01 '09

Oh Robert, you slay me.

itsgareth said on Aug. 01 '09

@LogoMonitor

I know for a fact this was designed way before the one done by Siah, so does he. It's not like we used the same plug? ;)

Grow up Doctor Mcguire, nice try.
