OpenAtlas » OpenAtlas Discovery

Kindly review this version. I will provide all file formats if approved!

• Do we have to decide for one version or is it meant to be used depending on the situation. If I have to choose one I would pick the first, wider one.
• The green colors seem much brighter than in the OpenAtlas logo, is this meant to be? If yes, it's fine with me too.

Of course these are just the thoughts of an old backend developer, I'm curious about the feedback of the more graphical talented young ones :)

Thanks Jan, looks good, I really like the Typefacing you did!

I had the Idea that if we want to distinguish it more from the Open Atlas Logo maybe we could add a looking glass, I tried to mock up what it could look like in the attached file. What's your opinion on something like that?

Other than that I was thinking: Could we make Icon could be a bit smaller in relation to the Text? That feels a bit more proportional to me.

In the file the bottom one is the Normal design, in the middle the one my try at making the icon a bit smaller and at the top the Mock up for adding a looking glass.

I'm looking forward to hearing your input!

Thanks a lot for the Input (and mock up)! It gave me an interesting starting point for thinking further about the new logo.

From the branding point of view, changing the general layout of the logo for a "sub-brand" is diluting recognition too much. We have to balance sameness and distinctiveness somehow. Just adding a big looking glass to the graphic element makes it look too crowded. But changing the pin icon to a looking glass works fine, i think! Also, I changed the color of the map elements to add another distinction from the original logo, that makes telling them apart at first glance easier.

How does the new version work for you? Looking forward to hear your thoughts!

To me i still registers as "Same logo, but in blue". :-) Guess, we'll have to disagree on the color but it still works in the original green - see attached file.

Alex just made me aware that the jpgs I uploaded looked very "neon" in his browser. Since my browser rendered the colors differently I was oblivious to the crass color difference!
Please use the screenshot I made of both, green and blue, versions for reference and sorry for the inconvenience.

Thanks a lot for theses new suggestions.
I like them very much and i ha

ve to agree with Jan. I don't think a change of the color would take that much away.
But I would either just change the color or the icon, not both.
Also i think it would be better to keep the magnifying glass in just one color.
I attached some examples.

I attached a screenshot of the new versions of the logo: changed icon and changed color scheme. Both are working fine but - and that is just a personal opinion - I tend to like the green version with the looking glass more.

Please tell me if you need anything else. file formats, sizes, etc..

Thanks a lot Jan. I uploaded the zip files to the "Files" section (and removed strange mac_os folders while doing so).
Assigning to Andi, you can close this issue as soon as the logo is integrated and has worked out ok.

Thank you Jan. The new logo looks very nice.
