I’ll reply and shit on their logo.

Think it’s really strong on basically everything.

I mean, they don’t even really have a logo. The OP thing has bad lettering.

Luckily there’s a cool proposed rebrand at area.tech/optimism

Boring and not conceptually tied to Paragraph in any discernible way

not even worth it, looks like it came from a free vector website

current Arch logo looks like it was purchased on fiverr

the bevels are an awkward level of visual detail for a logo, boring shape

Personally find this one a little too ambiguous conceptually.

Doesn’t really imply “safe” either the word or the metaphor. Just kinda feels like a blob.

Visually I can’t tell if I should be seeing the object or the white space.

Also that style of shapes has kinda become overdone in web3 (variant, yuga, etc)

I never like logos that rely on gradients because they can’t be drawn in 1-color environments or with embroidery.

Also even if you could, the zorb is ultimately a circle so that doesn’t work either.

In practice Zora just uses their wordmark as their logo.

Doesn’t really work as a logo imo. Primarily because the reliance on shading makes it really limited.

For example, you couldn’t embroider this on a hat.

Without the shading, the mark is kinda generic. Needs more personality.

Optical illusion being attempted here is pretty awkward. When you don’t see it, the logo looks malformed.

I don’t love the mark but it’s working well at this point.

Wish it was more interesting when color isn’t available

way too basic, not that interesting. works fine just needs a visual choice of some kind

I see what it’s going for with the U lock mechanic but I don’t think it’s working tbh. Like it took me awhile to understand that.

I also think at small scales the cross line is too small.

Mirror’s is pretty good.

Only downside is that it’s maybe not immediately recognizable in 1 color due to not being that unique of a shape.

It’s also become a bit of a trope in web3 to use that shape.

Doesn’t really go with the name, eg it’s not super coherent.

That being said it’s a weird little guy so they get a pass.

It’s just a janky ME? Not great lines, looks amateur

Their new wordmark is cool.

The standalone A as a logo is not really that recognizable or distinguished.
