Web Font Suggestion

[GIOV]

Hi,
I do like this font for the web. I do not if it's a good idea but I think it's more clever for the new Alibre Design.

Re: Web Font Sugestion

Thanks for your suggestion. We cannot change the logo - it is decided on.

Part of what went into our logo design was fulfilling several criteria:

• It should be easy to understand

• It should feel approachable

• It should feel friendly

And a few others. What is not on that list is "it should be cool" - though we value coolness as much as the next guy/girl. This font is cool, but doesn't do a good job of representing the brand we're going after. I wanted to thank you for your feedback, and give you the rationale behind why we chose what we chose.

Cheers,
Max

Did anyone try building the A logo in Alibre Design? It seems more like a freeform sculpture than a mechanical CAD design to me. I realize it is probably too late now but something to consider for the future.

That Sounds Like an interesting design challenge

It would be interesting to be able to 3D print, or CNC cut that logo if it does get modeled!

DaveH,

May you vary the units.
I hope the Alibre Team likes you CNC model!!

I meant the new Alibre 'A'. Sorry for the confusion.

The new "A" is good. It has a certain aura of MC Escher, but then when you look at it it is physically realizable.

Counts as cool for me.

I understand.
Here is an idea of Alibre "A"

Ok Max,
To conclude, This is my contribution for Alibre Design Interface. The Alibre Design may be replaced by the Alibre "A" gem
Contect Menu, Design Explorer and Ribbon on semi-transparent board.
