Controversial Logo Design for New York City Opera
I think this is an awesome idea. Witty, relevant, and dialogue inducing. The strongest aspect is probably it’s agility. The identity is malleable, a perfectly orchestrated identity that can be adapted to a variety of future situations and campaigns.
While the stark circle may not be identifying on it’s own, the canvas that has been designed is sustainable for years to come.
Logos like this are def. cutting edge and I fully expect to see a trend develop.
