Logo and Stationery for Seam by For Brands Polish design agency For Brands were recently commissioned to create a new visual identity for Seam, a distributor of luxury clothing brands, that would convey a sense of craftsmanship and an eye for detail. For Brands mixes classic typographic detail with contemporary customisation delivered across tactile material choices with hand finished detail, fusing urban, craft and fashion sensibilities. Although the logotype utilises an increasingly familiar aesthetic (check out these), the absent stems of a classic serif is quick and effective way to establish a clear juxtaposition of (stencil cut) utility and high fashion statement and detail alongside a couple of proprietary sweeps in the A and M that appear appropriate for the brands that Seam stock. This contrast continues with a business card that combines a grey uncoated board, the perceived high quality of a black block foil print finish and the flourish of a hand-sewn cotton thread element.

In a much-publicized case a couple of years ago, Gap unveiled a new logo that was widely maligned. More recently, the University of California introduced a logo that represented a stylistic shift from the previous traditional look; the gradient effect on the C quickly became the focus of criticism, even motivating several online petitions calling for a repeal. In both cases, the organizations buckled under public scrutiny and reverted to their original designs. Clearly we care about logos.
