INEX Class Crit

The overwhelming response to my circular designs was that it was too similar to NASA's logo. This was understandable as in both designs there is a circle, a 4 letter form and an emphasis on the N. I believed it was important that my design fit the space agency outfit, however being among new and original designers I realised the importance of creating something unique and bold (where no man has gone before.) Because of this I planned to develop further without the circle.
There was also a consensus that the E and X were better separated as it was more legible and professional.
Additionally, the angular X was deemed old fashioned compared to the modern shape of the N. I've decided not to rectify this as I believe part of exploring space lies on past exploration, linking back to the sign on the moon that inspired me.
Finally, the colours people suggested I take forward for these designs were deep purples and reds and also blacks. These are opposit to the pale blue many space agencies have used, including NASA, which I will be glad to be separate from.
