So... Have you seen Comic Sans new look?
It is ironic that we've been stabbing at Comic Sans for practically the entire quarter with no actual reason why we hate it besides the fact that it's unique (and rather obnoxious to the eye) style wards us off from ever believing in it to be a true professional typeface like Helvetica. Coni has asked us why helvetica, which is practically used everywhere and no one ever tires from it is so much greater than comic sans, which never gets any positive spotlight? Obviously its the construction of the type and its usability reasons that make helvetica top notch and comic sans laughable... But has anyone seen the new typeface comic sans has been evolved into?? I honestly think this typeface is giving comic sans a standing chance at being a usable, fun typeface, what do you guys think??
First let me give you some background on what I doing my project on. I recently found an article on how CO2 disrupts plants and causes them to pollinate faster. This is the reason why there are more people that develop asthma every year. I wanted to do this subject because I recently found out that I have developed asthma after being in Massachusetts for a year. The doctor said it is because in Boston their is a lot of CO2 and disrupted plant life...
Now for the logo... I wanted to create something that was...
- Simple yet original
- Worked in Black and White
- Represented the Letters CCI
Decided to change the bubbles to a more dominant color;)
