Hello design community!
With new intentions to market myself, I've chosen a business name and started to flush out a design. ...I'm aware that it somewhat resembles the transformer icon, and I'm hoping this isn't as bad, or distracting, as it may seem? :confused:

any feedback would be appreciated, Thanks!

Try using perfect isometry cause I see the top and bottom have different angles. Also try making it into a cube cause the high shaped logo's is not pleasant for eyes cause people have horizontal eyes and rather see wide shape or perfect sqaure but not a high object.

Also use font that is in the same range of your logo and not something totally does not fit in the picture. Cause at the moment is looks like 2 different companies next to each other. And don't add a box around it is does not help and make it less simple.

Hey Chung, thanks for the suggestions! I never considered the idea of wide shapes vs high shapes, interesting. I'll be playing around with this a bit more and post an update.

Thanks!

I would suggest you also try to make the text next to the icon match. It looks way off right now and not even apart of the logo. Try something more solid and thick as a font.

Thanks to all for the feedback.
I've decided to explore new directions, as the consensus of my first version comes too close to a transformers/decepticons icon.

I'm not sure if this is any better, from a design standpoint, but its hopefully an improvement... i tried to make it less vertical, less robot icon-ish.

The fifth one in the first row looks more attractive.

I think the isometric feel could be applied to these new designs. Apply it to the second logo in the second image. Get the black background to look like it's flipped to the back (like it is now) and get the white letters in isometric look like your first design (Transformers) to pop out to the front. Hope you understand what I mean. ;-)

is it just me or does the flat tops of the H and M look a little awkward since the inside of the letters are angled... I like the concept, but I think you should keep at it. I feel that the very first set is probably your best set.

What Chung was saying is that your angles on the top of the HM and the arrow element, are not the same degree/pitch as the bottom of the HM...if you get those the same you will have perfect isometry.

Ill upload to show you what he means.
