I think the work done to justify this new brand is much better (even overshadows) the final brand which comes of as "meh" on its own.
It really does seem like designers designing for themselves rather than the end user (I think we are all guilty of this sometimes).

^ I went to a UC school, I could give a shit about this overbrand. And in the world of brands - it is not *that* bad. Their brand guidelines website is actually pretty nice - gives homage to the history, shows how to use it on all mediums, etc. This is typical California BS surrounding anything, you change the street signs from Helvetica on Green to Arial on Blue and 450 people chain themselves (nonsensical) to a pier in Santa Monica - the state is full of cuckoos and people who want to petition everything. Glad we are erring on the side of "no progress", added expenses, added explanations, and pointless drivel.

Excellent piece by Armin Vit on reaction to this rebrand.
In summary:
It may suck, but petitions are dumb and undermine the creative community as a whole. Fuck the mob.Love the "Am I right? Am I right?" bit
