This is great. Very strong unique, great for branding, etc.

Also, I wanted to say I love the Concept47 mark that was recently placed in the Gallery. I just realized it was a "4" and a "7" ... but since you didn't allow comments there, I had to leave it here. ;)

dache said on Feb. 21 '08

Hi Robert, thanks very much!

sketec said on Feb. 24 '08

This is perfect. A readable type-style, usable icon (resize-able), nice color choice. Looks very professional.

dache said on Feb. 25 '08

Hey guys,

I just finished writing an article for the "dacheboard":http://www.dache.ch/index.php/dache/comments/evolution_of_dachech_logo/ about how I created this logo, please check it out :^)

Type08 said on Aug. 21 '08

Maustinproductions said on Sep. 27 '08

Very Nice! Simple and clean.

Bravo! :)

logomotive said on Sep. 27 '08

I'm a little worried about dache, I have not heard or seen anything form him in a few. Really is he OK?

dache said on Sep. 29 '08

Maustinproductions, thanks.

logomotive, yes all is fine. Next time just drop me an email though as I'm not on here much anymore.

System Overload said on Nov. 05 '08

I'm new hear and i absolutely love all your logos, I am looking for a logo for my site System Overload Gfx or System Overload Designs .com. I want the logo just to have System Overload, how much would this cost.

Please email at jgoldman51@comcast.net

Yglo said on Nov. 17 '08

I love this one too :) Great work Dache, you're definitely one of the best!

dache said on Nov. 17 '08

Thanks very much to you both :^)

sticks said on Dec. 12 '08

Congrats on the Logo of the day, cool stuff

dache said on Dec. 15 '08

Thank you.

raja said on Dec. 27 '08

i think the type is horrible

raja said on Dec. 27 '08

lol CD sorry man - not gonna go there!

The tally of disagreement is never gauged here. Also, I'm not really looking for an accordance - I still think the type is horrible

sue me!

cruent said on Dec. 27 '08

Great work david! I check your website every week because you are really good at logos. Keep up the good work and happy holidays :D

struve said on Dec. 28 '08

definitely get the swiss ref., but not seeing anything real spectacular here otherwise

grabbdesigns said on Dec. 29 '08

this one really sticks out as clean and simple!

nulio said on Jan. 03 '09

Awesome concept.

About the logo, have you experimented other type? I'm gonna go with raja about that.

About the avatar, have you tried center the square and not the whole logo? It was the first thing I thought. Don't know if it works tough.

pineapple said on Jan. 03 '09

Helvetica is historically associated with Switzerland, no? I think he has good reason to use that in his personal mark, despite the widespread sentiment that it's an overused typeface.

lehelmor said on Mar. 07 '09

Clean as Switzerland!
;)
A great logo always have a great concept behind.

uwie said on Mar. 08 '09

great execution. but from marketing perspective i think it was not wise to remove the '.ch '

gab0ng said on Mar. 21 '09

awesome!

2creativo said on Apr. 05 '09

Really good work, congrat

dache said on Apr. 30 '09

Thanks for the comments all.

patentico said on May. 16 '09

as simple as it must be - congrats!

dache said on Jun. 01 '09

Thanks patentico.

alldesign said on Jun. 22 '09

I really love the 'Swiss style' part of this identity! I have an affinity for it myself...and I'm not even Swiss! :) My latest use of it is here: http://logopond.com/gallery/detail/68018 ...and I'd LOVE to hear what you have to say, dache!

S.A.T said on Jun. 25 '09

NICE!

dache said on Jun. 26 '09

Thanks for your comments guys.

moxelcreative said on Jun. 29 '09

Nice work! I really like the simplicity and graphic feel of this piece.

dache said on Jun. 30 '09

Thanks Shaun.

MDX said on Aug. 07 '09

David, you must be genetically incapable of making something bad.

dache said on Aug. 07 '09

:^) Thanks Michael

abeall said on Sep. 24 '09

dache, how much would I have to pay you to explain to me why this logo is so dang awesome? I look at it and it just seems so perfect and appealing, but I can't rationalize why. I love the colors.

brandsimplicity said on Nov. 02 '09

Loving the new direction David.

Type08 said on Nov. 02 '09

I welcome this as well! But also good luck with replacing a world known Dache brand with the new one, I guess that it won't be easy... All the best to you, David!

epsilon said on Nov. 02 '09

I would use something a bit more edgy for the type. Papyrus, for example. Otherwise it's very nice.

OcularInk said on Nov. 02 '09

Yes, Papyrus would be perfect.

epsilon said on Nov. 02 '09

By the way .. the type looks like it is sitting lower than a mark, and that throws the balance off a bit. Perhaps bump it up slightly ?

logomotive said on Nov. 02 '09

Dache, I'm curious as are I am sure a lot of others are also. I can see one going from an off name to their own name but your doing this in reverse and you have an established brand name??? Seems like an identity crisis to me but it's your thing, just wondering.

dache said on Nov. 02 '09

Thanks for the comments guys. You can read all about the reasons why on at http://bit.ly/new_name

JF said on Nov. 09 '09

I believe Dache has some good reasons for re-branding. The work is still excellent; clients will follow. As for his site, as long as it's still forwarding to the new one and tags formerly associated with Dache are now associated with Helvetic Brands, he should be okay.

helvetic brands said on Nov. 09 '09

Thank you JF :^)

contactme said on Nov. 23 '09

helvetic brands said on Nov. 30 '09

Thanks Roko, it is being taken care of.
Feel free to email me next time as I am not always on the site.

Rokac said on Nov. 30 '09

No problem David. Glad I could help.

Turns out, I never floated this. Well, better late then never.

JoePrince said on Jan. 26 '10

^Off with your head Floris! :)

mcdseven said on Jan. 26 '10

a classic... have come across this identity numerous occasions on the web and it always catches my eye, regardless of company name! Proud to float it.

I have to tell you that almost every logo I've loved and clicked on was yours. It's getting weird. Seriously. Stop it :)
I love your minimalistic style.Designers like you are my inspiration.
