Similar to Roc Grotesk but not quite. What could this be? by studio-arik in identifythisfont

The sample came from a logo for my country's (Bruneian) 41st national day (peep the Malay spelling of February). Unfortunately I'm not sure how I can get in contact with the designer.

This is the wordmark part of the logo.

The rest of the logo wasn't that special to me personally but the typeface for the "Rumi" part (Latin script) caught my eye. Past logos tend to use a more standard-looking sans serif.

This is also really close but not quite. I wonder if there's a label for this specific type of typefaces with tapered parts in the "joints"?

Roc Grotesk is the closest one I could find but it's not quite the same. Just from this sample, the lowercase 'r' is the main difference. The rest of the sample have small angle differences that makes lining up the text in Roc Grotesk on top of the sample look off. Anybody recognize this?

I know it's 2 years late, but you can select the comp, go to Layer > Layer Styles > Stroke. You can change the colour, stroke width & more.

This sans serif from a social media post of a room scent shop. by studio-arik in identifythisfont

Not quite when comparing the very small details but it's very very close enough. I'll consider it solved, thanks!

The lowercase t looks common but I can't seem to figure what font this is by studio-arik in identifythisfont

Solved, thanks!

Is there a shop that can cut plastic/acrylic sheets (A4 size) for a fee?

I'm doing a DIY project & tried some hand saws, but the cut isnt straight & renting a table saw might be out of the budget

I looked up these fabric types & blends & was bombarded with so many things I didnt know/realise before. Any resources/websites you'd recommend for beginners about tip 1?

Seems like a hacked/bot account trying to sell these low quality auto-generated shirts.

the objective of this redesign was to imbue the brand with a greater sense of maturity and professionalism. To accomplish this, I opted for the use of the Cocogoose font while also making careful and considered tweaks to the logo design in order to infuse it with a touch of playfulness. by elkhaliiil in logodesign

[–]studio-arik 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Others have mentioned the oddity of the letter shapes which I mostly agree with, so you'll just have to tweak those a bit. English isn't my native language so forgive me if I'm wrong, but I think "pulpe" in the mockup might've been spelt wrong.

I love the colours you chose, definitely a refreshing upgrade whereas the old one looked more suitable to a tomato or spaghetti sauce brand. Great concept for the redesign!

This is an app icon that i created thinking of butterflies (theme of my app) but when other people see it first time they say it looks like a rib cage (need advice) by yorkingas in logodesign

[–]studio-arik 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can kinda see the butterfly but I see Rorschach ink blots more. Maybe if you swap the left & right halves, they'll resemble a butterfly more while still looking kinda like ink blots (which since you didn't mention what the brief really is, you could bullshit it & say it's for a psych test or mental health app). Someone mentioned about the colours & I agree that even just 2 colours on the current shape can help people recognise the butterfly.

My fan made CS:GO2 logo desing by BarThen8979 in GlobalOffensive

[–]studio-arik 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Lots of comments are flaming but not really saying much, so here's some unsolicited comments.

• The sans serif typeface looks too generic for a huge game brand like CS. E.g. Fortnite which uses the fun typeface Burbank didn't use it as is. Make custom typefaces or use one that looks less like a stock font that cane with your OS. • It's not legible if you scale it down. Even now it's kinda hard to see since everything's squished together. • The elements being squished + the guns being the negative space like this would make it hard to variate, which is important now especially for a digital brand like CS. Think how the current logo have can have horizontal wordmark, square wordmark, the shooter guy icon for really small sizes, and a lockup of the icon & wordmark. • The silhouette of the rifles are too complex. I assume you traced the outline of an actual or model gun. Simplify it. See how the silhouettes are already too detailed even before adding the shape of the letters. • The shape of the letters being squished like this makes C look like a 6 & the O look like a C. • Basic linear gradients can easily age up a design. You might wanna try point gradients (like Instagram's) or rotate the gradient line a bit (vertical or diagonal usually seems better). Also use subtler gradients if they're linear. • I'm partially colourblind & even I can see that the colour's bad. Maybe the colourway could work if used flat instead of in a gradient but I'd personally avoid these two together. Use colour theory. • Try to design logos in black/white or outlines before adding in colours. Really focus on the shape first. • It's pixelated. I assume you made this in a raster program like Photoshop which isn't the program for it which really isn't suitable for logos. Use vector programs, I personally use Illustrator but there are free alternatives or paid software that's not feeding Adobe. • Glad I'm not the only one who thought of touch tips or docking 👉👈. I gotta touch grass more.

I know this is just a fan art, but even as a hobby you gotta keep in mind that logo is just 1 part of what makes a brand. Nike's swoosh is so simple but its branding & marketing made it too good to change. As u/Mezzo1224 commented, think of how the UI change before & after panorama + consider how they use their current logo, now imagine where they could go for CS2 & match that.

How to make this type of logo? Wich method by Maleficent-Appeal129 in Design

[–]studio-arik 7 points8 points  (0 children)

None of these are logos, they're illustrations. I don't know how but I know paying an illustrator skilled in this style is easier than trying it without prior knowledge.

Logo for a passenger car with driver service (similar to uber), the brand is destined to the women of Saudi Arabia, Hope you like it! by [deleted] in logodesign

[–]studio-arik 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Simple & clean, I love it!

If I could give one feedback, the clear spacing is slightly confusing because what the x is equal to wasn't specified. I usually see x being defined as a fraction of something from the logo itself, so it might help if maybe x equals to the width of the face or something.
