I like this collab effort here. Updating under its own thread would be easier I thought.
This app will have tons of different modalities/practices that one can do on their own with their phone.
Teaching emotional & physical self-regulation, psychological therapies, subconscious programming etc.
Mostly short instant remedies to 3-5 day to programs to longer ones working on physical and mental levels.Some of these practices will be facilitated by AI. I'm working on a clean and a simple UI but I also want it to feel warm and human. So far this logo exploration is producing results that look a bit soulless to me. Like missing a human aspect so that's a challenge.
Here is what I have so far.
I'm still in favor of A1 here. Filled up circle doesn't do it for me for some reason. And I prefer the rounded bottoms hence the butt form
Off center moves away from the butt a little more. Used golden ratio for larger circle & negative space circle.
The added dot in the second one plays with the idea of Yin/Yang as the ascent comes from a place of balance.
No more butt impression. Maybe a super saggy one if you have a really sick mind. Then you'll need this app for sure.
Though it looks like the blast smoke from a rocket, I'm thinking of it as rising above "the waves of life". I might explore this approach more as I don't want it to look like some space industry logo.
And a bonus, but it doesn't excite me even for a bit in this state.

A is no butt
B made me laugh because it’s a butt with a mole
C is senior butt
D is Islam- B2: Tit-ButtYakuZoku

Anyway. B1 is a really nice mark. Happy you tried these. The off center design gives it even more movement and depth.monospaced

What if you leaned into the simplicity of the star as the primary symbol, supported by a distinctive typographic lockup?

Maybe something like this?

- I prefer this one, feels more "cultish".palimpsest
- Always avoided designing signs like these because they keep reminding me of Star Wars logos

I personally like B2 as it brings in a feeling of ying/yang. Is that something that could be developed more? Be interested to see the final app as I see a few of these around at the moment. I really struggle with self regulation and routines.
Keep up the good work and love how you're sharing it with us too. :-)

I don't want to be discouraging however the mark does look like Googles AI overview symbol (ask google a question in a search) which is opposing the idea of self and is widely visible. As I mentioned above, I would work on the type, see what comes out of it and then decide if you need a mark and what that might be having established the type feel.
