as someone already said, clever!!

Atomicvibe said on Aug. 15 '12

Well Abi, I'd say you nailed this one. This is really clever and simple, and seems to fit the brief completely.

One thing though: If the official name of the biz is "Arrow Inc.," don't you have to include the "Inc." part in the logo?

nydesign said on Aug. 15 '12

thanks jon, scismatica.
Jon: To my knowledge in the logo per se you dont need to add the Inc, or LLC or whatever else suffix they got. As their registered trademarked name it's ARROW, Inc. Some clients keep the inc in the mark and some don't from what i've seen but legally there's no issues here. Another thing is the client didn't want the Inc part in it either.

missed this ... very nice piece !!

THEArtistT said on Aug. 27 '12

did they go with another idea of yours? if so would like to see it. if not, they totally missed out in a big way. or was the startup a no go?

nydesign said on Aug. 27 '12

Thanks Bernd and THEartist.

THEArtist : Nope, I think they're holding off as of now.

In a world filled with negative space Fedex logo's, you have provided me with yet another "aha!" moment when it comes to arrows. Kudos! V

CHINOOK said on Nov. 02 '12

You nailed it, very nice!

johndervishi said on Nov. 02 '12

nydesign said on Nov. 04 '12

midgar said on Nov. 20 '12

wow

sabb said on Nov. 22 '12

really nice

MrAnderrrson said on Nov. 30 '12

Nice, clean design. I didn't notice the "A" in the negative space right off the bat. It's nice that it's subtle, but it's there. What stood out to me was more of the "traffic cone" although it's obviously an arrow. Maybe a traffic company called arrow could use this too :) Overall, I love it!

nydesign said on Dec. 01 '12

thanks sabb, midgar, Anderrrson! Anderrrson: OOh didnt see the cone till you mentioned, interesting! Yeah, this one is just sitting in the back burner for now.

markstuckert said on Dec. 04 '12

Perfect idea. Brilliant. What surprises me most is how unforced the perspective(s) feel %u2014 fantastic!
