I like your concept, but I think this logo could have been executed more effectively. The perspective on the box seems off and it\'s hard to make out \"d.construct\". Just doesn\'t read well.

I love this! excellent realism to the rendering of both the unfolded cube and also the typeface. Stellar!

I like this logo. It seems to me that the picture and construct is tied each other.

I\'m against the gradients and shadows on logos, and also the fact that they are builded with 3D images.
The combination between the complicated appeareance of d.construct and the open box is also lowering the vote.

The main idea is great, i would possibly try with a wider \"ribbon\" aswell.
I think this logo would only work in larger sizes. It doesnt working in this size, how dou you think will work in smaller?

The icon and lettermark treatment detract from each other. They are too far apart stylistically and when combined there is too much going on in the logo.

The folded paper letter-form is a great idea, but as it is, it doesn\'t read very well. Fine-tuned a bit it could stand by itself.

The unfolded box is a good idea as well but would be better matched with a simple [san-serif] font. This could work as a seperate icon for d.construct.

I like the open box icon. The font (type treatment) doesnt work well. It seems to look \"OK\" when it is shown at a larger scale but when reduced it will not show the shadows of each fold. Also at the size you have it here its really hard to notice those are shadows then lines. other than that good work.

best,
Tom

I like it... and yes while it may lose legibility significantly when it is downsized, why not convert the type to simple flat vector paths in smaller-type applications?? However.. I dont get an \"s\" out of the character after the \"n\"
