I like the 9/11 logo. The 11 looks like the pause sign.

I was born and raised in Sydney, so it pains me to say this, but I love the Melbourne logo. I think the folks that don’t like it are (rightfully) viewing it only in the context as it is presented here on a logo blog. I think you could really play with the geometric shapes to provide a myriad of variants to match a whole lot of different uses while still remaining instantly recognisable.

Well done to Landor.

I totally agree on the least favourite logos.
The most beautiful here are Avid and the New York Philharmonic logos.
Thanks for sharing!

Your opinion’s appreciated, Ian, just like everyone elses. Life back in Scotland is going very well so far, thanks a lot.

Is it just a coincidence that the 9/11 attacks were made on a date which is also the dialing code for an emergency in the United States?

Although not wanting to increase traffic on the views of the New York Philharmonic logo, I just want to follow up by saying that I’m not too fond of it. Any logo that you need to turn around to read is just too annoying to be likeable in my opinion…. but what is my opinion worth anyway! :-)

My first understanding of the New York Philharmonic logo was that the “New York” represented the musicians on stage in a curved arrangement as per usual….the diagonal line representing the stage which seperated the musicians from the audience…. and the “Philharmonic” representing the audience seated angled towards the stage appropriately. No? or am I in my own little world here? :)

All the best in bonnie scotland lad!

Whilst ‘nice’ , suitably understated and effective as a logo, the 9/11 one isn’t especially ‘creative’ or ‘clever’ in my opinion. It was kinda handed to the designer on a plate…

The most creative in my opinion is the 9/11 logo.
I don’t understand the big thing in Avid logo, it looks like the knockoff of the Viva logo (http://www.viva.tv/). As someone said before, at first I thought it was the Viva logo with facelift. If you would live in Europe it would hit you the same. I don’t know which one is older, but Viva has this logo forever (18+ years).

Very nice grouping. Avid’s is very clever and creative. There was a lot of rebrands last year, and most were rushed and not very well done.
