Forum Feedback Help Us Choose TechEnclave’s New Logo!

It is the third option for me. I don't know why, but the small downward triangle between Tech and Enclave makes it posher. :shrug:
I guess I'm the only one who doesn't like either of the logos. What's the problem with a plain and simple TE logo? The word Tech and Enclave are too vast meaning to associate them with a logo. Anyway, your forum your choice ofc
I meant something like an apple is mono meaning so that's why they could use that logo.
The third logo is T and E arranged differently.
I am with you on this one. Would really prefer a logo as a brand identity. Not sure trying to shoehorn TE into a logo works. Most brands either spell out their name or use a distinct logo.
Well there are different types of logos and each have their own purpose. What we have here is a combination logo which includes a distinct image and the spelled out name. Both can be used together or independently. Like for example Adidas, Airtel, Air BNB.
Using just initials is monogram logos, distinct image is brandmark like apple, spelled out text is word mark like google. There are other types as well and many brands use different strategies depending on their where they are in their lifecycle and what their branding guidelines say.
For someone like us having a combination logo works well.

Agree with your point on monogram logos, just challenging whether it needs to focus on the letters in this case or a logo that captures its essence - as in an enclave for tech aficionados.
We spent good money on getting a logo professionally designed more than 10 years ago which captured the essence of an enclave. A good 20+ designers participated in that challenge and the output was nowhere close. It may still be possible to design such a logo, but we dont have the appetite anymore.

The current logo looks better than all the options listed here.

Can't relate to any of them.
1 looks like a Mandalorians helmet
2 just wierd, a zipper handle maybe
3 reminds me of one of the monsters from the 70s arcade game Space invaders

Somehow (especially now) I love the current logo
Yeah we condensed the options down to 3.
If we look hard enough, we can see shapes in clouds so its natural that any logo will resemble something weird, funny, unrelated. Guess what airtel logo looks like.

Ah, but I don't feel that with the existing logo. Straight away you associate something technical with it.
That my mind goes in different directions with these candidates is the first sign of a problem
Very legible TE in the existing logo too. Nobody is going to read those initials in any of these logos.
I would second the suggestion that the existing logo is better than these candidates which are cold & ambiguous.

The original logo was clear and easy to decipher, like techcrunch's logo. Maybe with less colours?
Ideally a logo should be identifiable if you squint your eyes and blur your eyesight, at least that's what I've always aimed for.
The text/font/accent mark in the third is really cool and you should use with whatever logo you decide on.

I would argue a robot is more TE than a circuit board. Look how cutely he is looking at you with a head tilt, waiting for you to love him. If he had a tail, he would be wagging it right now.
