Robert,

Cool! Although I doubt that we have any users who will make that determination!

Adam, let's go with this.

Jay,


My original idea was to just tilt it slightly, so that, for example, the line from the upper corner of the outer cube to the back corner of the outer cube would be distinct from the line from the same point to the upper corner of the inner cube. However, I believe that the shading used in the new version you attached looks great and is sufficient to ensure a casual viewer will get that they're looking at the 3D edge of a 4D ice cube.

Adam,


I think this looks really good and I like the choice of backgrounds. As for the perspective issues that Robert mentions, I see what he is saying, but I'm not sure what we can do about it. That is, the projection of a tesseract from any dimension into 3D is a cube, and from 3D to 2D it is either a square or hexagon depending on the projection angle. Personally I it looks pretty cool and thought provoking.


But, Robert, call me out if you want!

Hey Jay Jay,

 

I’ve adjusted the logo to address the perspective concerns. I really like the symmetry of the logo, so I’ll try to solve the perspective issue with a gradient. What are your thoughts?  Also I’ve place the logo on a variety of background colors to give you an idea of the logos versatility.

 

Thanks!

Everyone,

 

Please see Adam's email below and let us know what you think about his proposal for the new ICE logo.

 

I like it and want to go with it, with my only proposed change being to make the tesseract and word "ICE" bigger. (Cut away more of the empty space.)

 

Jay

Hey Jay Jay,

 

Hope you had a great weekend! I was thinking over the weekend about the idea of making the ICE logo a “tesseract”. This would give the logo a scientific element while keep the ice cube shape. Also hinting at the idea of a fourth dimension for those who know what a tesseract is. I like the wire frame look as well because it reminds me of a computer simulation.

 

Take a look and let me know what you think.

 

Thanks!
