Mmm, Futura.

This is a great logo. It looks like it could belong to a type foundry. I love the way the weight is distributed. It kinda reminds me of a red alarm strobe thing, like the kind on the Ghost Busters car.

Darrel, yeah I like your mark, saw it on the typophile forum. Is this a typeface you designed? The D A of course.

Darrel said:

The D and A are actually the exact same character. It is a custom character. Is it worthy of an entire typeface? I dunno...

logomotive said:

Yeah, i grabbed that, thats the cool thing the D is not as open horizontally (as norm) giving it more character. I Do think it's worthy. I'd buy it,.. Question is do you have the time and patience?

Typophile...that's where I've seen this. This is a very strong personal identity, Darrel. And I agree with logomotive, it would make a great typeface.

Wonderful design, the spacing is superb and your use of bold colours helps the logo stand out. I too would love to see the 'DA' character made into a typeface in its own right! Top Notch!

I saw it on Typophile too. It looks just great and is very memorable as well.

I really like this. The fact that both D and A are equally distributed makes this mark even stronger. My only gripe would be the addition of
"design" underneath. But if you're starting out, and yet have to create a presence, it's probably worth it to keep for now.
Well done.
