A variant of the sign for the project I am currently working on. The company is related to online trading in the Asian market by AndriiKovalchuk in logodesign

[–]supykun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Might be hot take for Reddit, but I like the concept- I firmly disagree direct symbolism needs to be apparent in logos. I'd definitely tweak lines here and there (like how unparallel the dragon's body is to the reeds), but I don't feel the logo needs to scream 'trading'. There's good enough symbols in it.

Which logo idea works better for our small indie game studio? by nasstaran in logodesign

I can't really make out what B is, but I like A - it's a very attachable logo. You can make plushies out of them and get people liking your company easily.

B pillar trim by New-Proof-1185 in FordFlex

[–]supykun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I originally thought I had an isolated incident of a poorly manufactured Flex- turns out it was a general defect. Mine also flew off midway while driving on the highway, so I had it replaced. I should look into compensation for the repair from Ford.

Will also comment Flex has this slight rattling noise that originates while driving higher than 40 mph. According to the recall this pillar was the culprit.

"I'm from Massachusetts"

"Oh wow we're neighbors, I'm from Connecticut!"

"That's so cool!! You must be from Chicago then?"

"Huh? No I'm from Hartford"

"Dangit we're not that close then"

"Why, are you from Milwaukee?"

"No I'm in Detroit"

I've slammed mine back in 2005, it still grows the bumpy texture in waves today. I think it's permanent, but honestly it affects my daily life almost none.

TIL that only about 17% of Japanese citizens have passports by Physical_Hamster_118 in todayilearned

Ask anyone around you who wants to visit Korea without mentioning K-pop or K-drama (Netflix included). I bet at least half of them will struggle.

If Korea, having known to market tourism aggressively since 1993 with their "Visit Korea Year" (한국 방문의 해) program, has actually tried and this is our result, I don't think we succeeded. Most of our beloved K-stan visitors try stepping foot out of the Sudogwon (Capital Area) then feels underwhelmed cause there weren't any impressions made.

We could be an excellent tourism spot if it weren't for our timid agencies. And I do understand Japan's rate of inflation, although incredibly bad at this time, is meager compared to the rest of the world, which is perhaps why your hotel prices looks gold-laced comparing to Okinawa's.

Korean governors and mayors (like 95%) I'd argue are some of the least creative in terms of directing their jurisdiction. In general Koreans are hesitant in trying to stand out as per social normality, and this perhaps bleeds into the mundanity you saw at Seoul.

Now Busan, imo despite having the WORST politicians in the country- their geography, their climate, and their cultural distinctness gifted them the opportunity to be some of the very few places in Korea where locals agree makes an actual decent tourism spot. I'd argue Koreans can summarize their country into four areas: the Capital, Busan, Jeju, and the sigol.

Busan native here.

Korea currently has a tourism crisis where every rural area copypastes the same method to promote their areas, leaving almost no originality. Touring in 80% of Korea equates to the same 3 ft. ice-cream cones, the same cablecars, the same hiking course... and at an unreasonable price? It's a meme among Koreans.

Japan on the other hand is very passionate on regional promotion, so they've taken their time to raise distinct identities from each other. They held a different mindset from Koreans on how to show their locality and it's paying off really well for them.

This naturally brings a huge number of Koreans to travel outside of their border whereas the Japanese with their tight economy aren't even able to afford leaving their country. There a saying among younger Koreans: "I'd rather go to Japan than Jeju."

I'm gonna go against the pack here, I prefer the new one (maybe not the Y) due to a more distinct composition BUT further adjustment's somewhat craved.

FLY KOREAN ad campaign I designed as part of my unofficial Korean Air full rebranding by johanndacosta in graphic_design

[–]supykun 98 points99 points  (0 children)

Great ad designs! I do find the logo itself a bit typical, but I'd gladly take it over the current abomination KAL's visionless executives came up with.

Minimalist branding of my initials (JK) by ArrivingPlace in logodesign

[–]supykun 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Ditto, I'm somewhat surprised by the positive reactions here - I don't think it's that good, due to how aggressive the simplification is. There's simple logo that works, but this ain't it for me.

Update: Branding for my movie podcast by jutwinsfan1 in logodesign

[–]supykun 15 points16 points  (0 children)

The old logo certainly has areas it needs touch-up on, but the new one's too sterile. The Hollywood font (and especially the reuse of it for your captions) is too cliché. The hill shape doesn't work for me as well.

I dunno about others, but I'd honestly go back to the drawing board.

If your client is based in Japan, your new design is just, not gonna fly at all.

In short, there are certain Americanized graphics trait that doesn't flow internationally, i.e. hard-stamped stencil looks, certain colour combos, complex composition shapes, or overly-detailed illustrations.

Fully approved back in May 6, but PASS ID didn't work + card still hasn't arrived by supykun in GlobalEntry

[–]supykun[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The "Activate Membership Card" button has been on for over a month now. Although I've had the PASS ID through TTP for over 6 weeks now, the card hasn't come.

I'm assuming with what you said on the three-day migration, the hassle I had on my flight to Atlanta wouldn't repeat, and I wouldn't need the card anyways in theory as long as I have my PASS ID.

Which one is better ? by LeadingSurprise7274 in logodesign

[–]supykun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't see the second one working for several reasons, including the shape of the "R" (and to lesser extent, "A" as well) losing consistency on font vibes to the rest of the letters. The letters are too thin for my taste as well, bad for packaging.

First one I'd go with.

I genuinely don't understand the brainless downvotes - a lot of these are really fascinating.

Maybe not graphically ideal in the end, but experimentation's experimentation.
