>Frankly, objectively speaking, the new logo is much better from a design perspective whether the author likes it or not.
Disagree fam, I think you drank too much of the kool-aid. A logo ought to above all communicate about the brand and now I'm gonna mix up OUP with Apeture Science.
My point is not that you're wrong, but rather that design is firmly in the land of opinion and your staunch 'objectivity' is bankrupt. I hope you didn't pay anyone to acquire that opinion.

Your comment begins with a fallacious statement, which is an ad hominem. > A logo ought to above all communicate about the brand It's a 3D scroll stylized as an "O," which obviously stands for "Oxford." Help any? > and now I'm gonna mix up OUP with Apeture [sic] Science. The Aperture Science logo is a stylized flat aperture. The OUP logo is a 3D scroll. Hope that helps. > My point is not that you're wrong, That's wise, because I am not. > but rather that design is firmly in the land of opinion On the contrary, graphic design is an academic discipline based on fundamental principles that ultimately are rooted in mathematics. Without any background or education, what you've done is assume you know things about design which you do not. Please consider Wittgenstein's advice: "whereof one cannot speak, thereof one must be silent." > and your staunch 'objectivity' is bankrupt. You've closed your comment with a fallacious statement, which is a straw man.
