Re-branding of the company identity from Abbey National to abbey.
What where they thinking when designing this identity. Is it me or have they just fucked it up. It looks like a kids toy shop logo not a bank logo.
hahahahahahahahaha

I think it's great... a different approach
when you look around, and see Natwest change their great identiy from white out of black, to red out of blue... oh dear!
I think it was wolff olins

looks great in that window too. Nice to see soething a little left of center, especially for a bank.

No one wants their logo to remind people that the company is run by a bunch of middle aged corporate white males anymore...

Bluejam ... I do.
I want corporate monkeys hellbent on making me a return on investment. Not a bunch of freshly minted college grads scheduling all day meetings about how to make the logo look X-Treme.

I think its fantastic.
as a shop front it stands out and looks amazing, it works well on tv too, when the colours are animating.
in print, not sure. The website is shit granted. should have got me to do it :)
