https://cohost.org/roguecache just made a new solarpunk logo; i think it’s very well designed and keeps the simplicity while still keeping sun, nature and technology meanings
Looks nice but probably too many details to work at smaller sizes. A single large leaf instead of the whole leafy stem would convey the same visual concept.
Is it just me or dose this one looks a bit like the depressed Form of v1 (I love v1 its part of my punk-jacket). The down hanging leafs combined with the darker colors give me a more sad vibe like if the plant needs watering or something.
I get more jungle vibes from it :o
No idea what v1 looked like, I kind of think it should be flipped horizontally and maybe tilted, since it’s already making an ‘S’ with those two sets of shapes.
Hmm, I think I like v1 better. It’s all good though.
It was bugging me how that could be an S but wasn’t so I fixed it.
At some point that must have been the idea behind this logo. Would be interesting to hear from the original artist why they decided to go in a different direction with it.
I like this a lot more vertically!
I also think it could have a bit less detail and get the point across, which would let it scale better.
I kinda like the message of the gear below the plant as well. It’s like were using automation and science to uplift nature.
Or like nature based on science.
Exactly - honestly would be neat to stick on the boxes for the controllers I’m using for sensors in the garden.
May play around a bit with the design (with the help of a few graphic designer folks that I work with and would enjoy this, who can also do in minutes what would probably take me an hour or two)
This is much better indeed! 🙌
I would love something that you could spraypaint on a wall within seconds, like the anarchy-A
This would lend itself to stencils pretty well though (one color, no islands), especially with a touch of spray adhesive on the back. I’ve done the symbol from one of the more common solarpunk flags, and getting the blank spot inside the gear positioned would be a little finicky if doing graffiti.
You’d want to bridge the corners there, to make it all one piece, if you wanted to be able to put it up quickly. I was just painting a laptop so I had plenty of time to fuss with it.
Honestly stencils are best for that.
I love it!
Once upon a project (now abandoned), a graphic designer gifted me this logo, is a carrot with electronics soldering like PCBs… https://gitlab.com/uploads/-/system/group/avatar/4402577/huertechno3-01.png I absolutely love it!
@ex_06 nice
I love it! I’ll probably trasform this into a sticker and slap it on the back-case of my phone, cheers!
