"Don't try to be original, try to be good" - Paul Rand



One of the best facelift i've seen this year. Definitely a well thought concept. Picture taken from www.underconsideration.com

Adding the bangs on the first profile really helps in making this logo more contemporary, as the old profile, with the hair pulled back, made the girl too matronly. The perkier nose is cuter and the lips look a little less numb. The one thing that stands out more in this revision is the length of the necks, where they feel a little too stretched in this rendition by being so angular, whereas before the effect was diminished by the curvature. In terms of the shape of the trefoil itself, the update is a vast improvement with the new horizontal axis asymmetry, making it look more like a badge than a four-leaf clover. And as some of the executions below show, it makes for a very playful shape.

Kudos to OCD for producing such a good work and inspire others to create beautiful things. Now am gonna start revamping our very own 1M'sia logo and the government coat of arms. :)

p/s: shit again, and why i did't think of it earlier?!
