This is great. Very strong unique, great for branding, etc.**Also, I wanted to say I love the Concept47 mark that was recently placed in the Gallery. I just realized it was a %224%22 and a %227%22 ... but since you didn't allow comments there, I had to leave it here. %3B)

This is perfect. A readable type-style, usable icon (resize-able), nice color choice. Looks very professional.

nulio Jan. 03 '09

Awesome concept.**About the logo, have you experimented other type? I'm gonna go with raja about that.**About the avatar, have you tried center the square and not the whole logo? It was the first thing I thought. Don't know if it works tough.

Helvetica is historically associated with Switzerland, no? I think he has good reason to use that in his personal mark, despite the widespread sentiment that it's an overused typeface.

I really love the 'Swiss style' part of this identity! I have an affinity for it myself...and I'm not even Swiss! :) My latest use of it is here: http://logopond.com/gallery/detail/68018 ...and I'd LOVE to hear what you have to say, dache!

dache, how much would I have to pay you to explain to me why this logo is so dang awesome? I look at it and it just seems so perfect and appealing, but I can't rationalize why. I love the colors.

Loving the new direction David.

Reply
Type08 Nov. 02 '09

I welcome this as well! But also good luck with replacing a world known Dache brand with the new one, I guess that it won't be easy... All the best to you, David!

I would use something a bit more edgy for the type. Papyrus, for example. Otherwise it's very nice.

Reply
OcularInk Nov. 02 '09

Yes, Papyrus would be perfect.

Reply
epsilon Nov. 02 '09

By the way .. the type looks like it is sitting lower than a mark, and that throws the balance off a bit. Perhaps bump it up slightly ?

logomotive Nov. 02 '09

Dache, I'm curious as are I am sure a lot of others are also. I can see one going from an off name to their own name but your doing this in reverse and you have an established brand name??? Seems like an identity crisis to me but it's your thing, just wondering.

Reply
dache Nov. 02 '09

Thanks for the comments guys. You can read all about the reasons why on at http://bit.ly/new_name

JF Nov. 09 '09

I believe Dache has some good reasons for re-branding. The work is still excellent%3B clients will follow. As for his site, as long as it's still forwarding to the new one and tags formerly associated with Dache are now associated with Helvetic Brands, he should be okay. %0D*
