I had a dream about this concept last night. Ever seen it done before? If not I have some ideas for it...

^ wow wish I had these dreams, I had a mean rabied rat trying to bite me last night. No joke it was growling at me.

^Was it's name Oliver?

siah-design said:

Wooooww... Mike. I think I had similar dream recently. Only it was a mouse though instead of a rat. I've never seen a rat - Alberta, Canada has been rat-free for like 80 - 100 years now.

Josiah, in an endless sea of rehashes and make a quick buck logos, it's refreshing to see something that is not only strong but has been well executed. On this site I recall this face treatment used only in a cello and a kite, not a key.

Like Roy said, perfect harmony between form and function in this logo. Congratulations that You catch dream, inner voice, touch of inspiration, whatever it was into reality so well :-) Its a little miracle and i am happy with you.

lovely concept mate. Keep on dreaming!

Hey thanks Mabu, Gafyn, Lecart, Alen, Roy, Jan, Dotflo and Rich! Appreciate the love. Really glad no one has seen it done before. I think I'll keep it.

Didn't have any more dreams last night... mind was too buzzed from trying to develop a concept for a real client. It's MUCH more challenging developing a concept for a brand need as opposed to coming up with a concept for fun.

Or in other words, it's easier to find a question for an answer than an answer for a question.

koma said:

hey man, sorry 'bout this, don't wanna be a party pooper, but something very similar like your icon is featured in Logo Lounge 3, page 129 :) (except that there are 2 faces instead of one).
Your portfolio is stunning nontheless, and I'm sure that this is just a coincidence, but just to let you know. Cheers.

siah-design said:

Hey Koma, thanks for letting me know. I checked page 129 and couldn't see it. Sure you have the right page number?


Nov. 19 '09

Houston-we said:

same... checked the 129 of the 3rd logolounge, couldn't find it


Nov. 19 '09

Houston-we said:

by the way... FABULOUS design, Josiah!

firebrand said:

I think he meant page 108.


Nov. 19 '09

siah-design said:

Ahhh... I see it now. Thanks, Roy. It is a similar concept.... fairly different execution though. I'll have to keep this in mind though if I ever consider using it for a brand. Hmm....

koma said:

hm. in my copy it's the page 129 of the logo lounge 3. maybe it's a different edition for a different area code :) or whatever. check the link: page 129

ClimaxDesigns said:

Same as the other logo with similar comment: I've read all the comments and looked at the links and I think that in all fairness these can stand along, but I can see how one can compare them and assert that it was overly inspired, so I'm not asking you delete the logo from your showcase but am removing it from the gallery.

siah-design said:

^ Understandable. Considering the concept was original to me and I think the execution is different enough I'll leave it in my showcase though. I won't be using it for any brand though.

@koma: I see the reason the pages were different was because you had the mini version of the book.
