I like this one as well, especially the type. I'm just not sure about going with a dark background. I always like the look of printed materials (like business cards) with a light BG.**There's a pile of alternates %22here too%22:http://southcreative.com/concepts.jpg
Replytypeface is really good! i wonder how the icon looks like in monotone/bw? or it's not a requirement?
ReplyB%26W is not a huge concern, but I am working on it. The mark would only be printed single colour on an envelope, everything else will be colour. **%22B%26W early concept here%22:http://southcreative.com/sc-bw.gif
ReplyThis looks really nice, you did a good job, however you may want to alter or rethink this concept. I have seen it done a few times such as one on logopond here http://logopond.com/gallery/detail/4226. they look very similar to me at least. I like though.
ReplyThanks logomotive. I appreciate your input** I was aware that circular logos with overlapping elements have been done in various ways before, but I've always been a big fan of them. People seem to respond well to this style.**This mark originally started out as an abstract S and C, and I was trying to emphasise the southern hemisphere on a globe as part of it (since South Creative is located in Australia). It didn't work out, and a refined version turned out like this:)
ReplyOkie dokie then, just thought I'd let you know in case you may have not seen that style. Good luck with your end results.
ReplyExcellent work. I like it!
ReplyHey trevor, I like your work and I would very much like to contact you about it. Do you have an e-mail adress I could use?
ReplyHi Thomas, I can be contacted via trev %7Bat%7D southcreative %7Bdot%7D com
ReplyI like this a lot. Very nice indeed!
ReplyLooks familiar. Not saying mine was the first. But how many of these do we need featured?
Replylol @ admarcbart! truth.
Replyyeah, it looks very similar to what i did :D One more prove of 'ideas are flying in the air'... I like the your though, mate.
Reply... I like your type though.
ReplyAlso reminds me a lot of the 'Total' logo.*http://www.uk.total.com/*
ReplySorry, but I agree with the others. The type solution is nice, but this icon looks like all the other ones out there.
ReplyFunny thing is there are about 4 or 5 that I know of here on the pond. :) Of course some of the color schemes or shapes may be different, however the concept is still the same.**%22Seker1%22:http://logopond.com/gallery/detail/4226 (Mine)*%22Seker2%22:http://logopond.com/gallery/detail/4179 (Mine)*%22DynamicsLab%22:http://logopond.com/gallery/detail/22630*%22Linguafon%22:http://logopond.com/gallery/detail/8503*%22Kart%22:http://logopond.com/gallery/detail/7084*%22Aramova%22:http://logopond.com/gallery/detail/4734*%22Igalia%22:http://www.igalia.com/ (Former Feature on the Pond)*
Replyi'm beginning to think %22circular ring%22 marks like this will be the next 'globe'. I think AT%26T is due for another rebranding in about....a week...hehehe.**@trevc, nice execution of the mark though for %22this type%22 of symbol. as long as you like it, that's what counts.
ReplyThe icon looks like its been used vefore by other companies.
ReplyThanks to everyone for the comments and criticisms.**Artboy: The Total logo is interesing. I had some early concepts that were _very_ similar to that, when the S was still part of the design.**I've had a really good response to the logo (especially from clients and potential clients), so overall I'm not too worried if it's considered a common style/theme, etc.**admarcbart: I'd spotted Igalia ages ago, but hadn't seen your Seker logos. They're fantastic.**I'm glad to see a positive response to the type. I was nervous about making those changes.*
ReplySimply ... excellent.

Replygood stuff, looks beautiful!
Replyat first glance i saw the firefox logo %3B)
ReplyHi! This is my first comment on logpond.*The logo at first glance resembles firefox, maybe because of the colours more than the form. It also reminds me of %22total%22
Replybeautiful type...not sure about the symbol...(see above comment)*But nice clean logo none the less
