I'm glad you like it, I never really got that excited about it, I found the S hard to read on pale backgrounds (as above) and thought relying on Trajan as the corporate typeface (again) was a bit of a boring cop out. No doubt an improvement on what went before, but could have done better. But it got picked to be featured in one of the logolounge books, so what do I know! PS.

Checking my archives so far I have said more good things about new logos then bad.

I have designed few items in the newer buildings (Al-Raya 1 and 2, Salhia Car Park, and Max Mara Extension). The only problem they have is that they don't care about due dates. Thats why many of their projects take much more time than they should.

Is it because other designs are crap shit or because standards perceived by Mark are quite high ? Any clarifications Mark ? Damn! I rant a lot these days. ~ Soul Why do I feel that Mark always cribs about new logos and the agencies behind them?
