Very good! Clever idea. The type is perhaps a bit 'sec', but it works well with the mark.

Is this not in the gallery? It should be!

Reply

@lefty: It can be any of those things but the client refers to it as 'the shutters'.**@dbunk: Thanks, glad you like it. :)**@GaryS: Ours is not to reason why. %3B)

this should have a permanent link on the gallery. Its in the top five (IMHO) of logos on this site. Simplicity personified, conceptual brilliance, memorable, all rolled into one. if I design something like this before I exit this university I'd be one happy camper.

Reply
firebrand Mar. 02 '10

I don't know what to say. I'm quite staggered it's on the front page. Thanks for the kind comments.

Re: the Italian Ministry of Interior logo - WOW. And it's not even ripped off *well*. Look at that gradient! D: FWIW, the rest of their work sucks, and their website, despite all its fancy bells n' whistles, has tremendously poor functionality. FAIL. I hope they get taken to the cleaners for copyright infringement.

Reply
firebrand Jul. 29 '11

Thanks for the support on this. I understand the client has instructed lawyers.

Reply
atomicvibe Jul. 29 '11

%5EI'm not buying it. It's way too similar. The placement of the 3 bars, one of which being an open door on the left, and the unique perspective involved - I really don't think it's a very common idea. While their CD may not have consciously copied per se, there is no doubt in my mind he/she was directly influenced by yours.

Reply
LOGOMOTIVE Jul. 29 '11

%5E I agree 100%25. Besides by, %22definition%22 (in black and white)as being registered. This would be a direct COPY.

Mikeymike Jul. 29 '11

WOW, Roy just looked this over. What a COPY. No matter how they explain it, they are in the wrong here. IMO. Good luck with this one.*Cheers.

THEArtistT Jul. 29 '11

You have got to be kidding me. This logo has been published how many times in print and on the web? And then they never thought to check and see if the idea already existed? Should be Standard Operating Procedure to check for similarities on proposed designs BEFORE you present them. Horrible, horrible lack of research and followup. I'm sorry, but they should go down for it.

Disgusted. I read about the %22kidnapping%22 on the newspaper %22La Repubblica%22 here in Italy... I didn't know the original logo was here on Logopond.*If the board of examiners of the Ministry was stupid the stealer was very dishonest...**http://www.repubblica.it/politica/2011/07/26/foto/logo_plagio_ministero_interno-19663995/1/

chanpion Sep. 14 '11

Most of us here at Logopond would often post a design up to get feedback to see whether there are already similar established designs done so that we may try to steer another direction. As Trish pointed out above that its pretty much SOP. And here we have a full fledged design company PROUDLY boasting the logo's author's credentials who also happens to be a CD.**With a quarter of a century of professional experience...(*spit) These guys are an insult to our profession.

Saw this for the first time in David Airey's book. One of the most impressive marks I've ever seen. Your folio is inspirational. Keep up the excellent work!

Thanks Dan, it's opened a few doors and caused a bit of controversy along the way. ;)
