And tell me where's NEXT and where's Nike in terms of success?
Considering Steve Jobs leveraged his assets at NEXT to come back, take over Apple and use everything that was developed at NEXT to create OSX and conquer the tech world again, I'd say they did pretty damn good.
Here are a few more "terrible" Paul Rand logos


Gief link to your portfolio. I'm professional from a very different field, so my understanding of the graphical design is limited. Please forgive me my ignorance but it is very hard for me to accept 100,000$ logos (for example Moscow Metro logo cost $3,000,000+ and it keeps me stunned by this incredible amount). Somewhere in my mind I think that marketing effect from the sole fact of than amount of money spent is bigger than from actual logo. (Question remains what kind of marketing required for transport that is already serving ~30 000 000 passangers/day)
Np, i'll privately send it to you (don't need people harassing me on here). Obviously i would never charge 100k for a logo because i'm not that good lol but I think a good logo is important, Nike for example. Obviously for a startup coin project where marketing is not a priority I think a few hundred bucks is fair (just personal opinion)
