Thanks for commenting, Eric, and for bringing me back to this post for the first time in a long time. Stylo Design did a great job on this one.

David,
I can do nothing but agree with you about the first ‘eight’. I’ve seen it before, but everytime I come across it I smile a little. It truely is a “why didn’t I think of that?”-moment. Using the numerical representation of the brand in every single letter of brand’s logotype is, for lack of a better term; awesome. As for the other logos; underwhelming at best, imho.

Sete,

Thanks for correcting my typo, and sorry for my lack of Portugese knowledge. Cheers for dropping in.

Vuelos,

Glad you like it too.

I actually like the first one, it looks more original and innovative…. which may has a fast impatct and catch attention.

Yeah, shift is a great studio here in Portugal (it’s said Portugese by the way), and they have been working very very nice.

That logo simply rocks in every aspect and something I really enjoy in most of well done logos is that they are subtile.

Don’t you love when you look at a logo and go like:

Hm. Nice typo, okay, it’s clean and interesting but doesn’t have “that” sparkle… and all of a sudden – WAIT! Is that?! UAU! – And they got that sparkle after all.

But well, we need more well done logos, I have to agree with Dache, 1st year of Eula was something…

The sparkle…

Regards,
Sete 7

I found the first year of EULDA in general so much better. I was extremely disapointed with their choices this year.
I also wonder on what the ratio of buying a logo review / having it in the book is.

I could read the first eight right away. Thought it was great. Then I looked at it closer and really saw it, and liked it even more.

I wish I had the kind of brain that worked that way!

The entry from Switzerland reminds me of the SuSE Linux logo.

I don’t look at logo from aesthetic appeal alone. I would see if it relates to the client’s business and corporate persona. The 2nd “8″ logo is for a business lounge and the stylish and timeless look will make it look chic and classic when time past. It won’t be affected by trends and fads that much.

The meaning behind the “Stop here to Shop” logo is very distinct, but too literal and boring. Also, I don’t have a feel of the company behind.
