It's all happening at the zoo...



The FTW Zoo logo here is a fun example of interpretive type. They use stylized animals to create the shape of the letters FW. This is very fitting for the context. It is clean and legible, while maintaining its friendly feel that connects to kids. It is contrasted nicely by the traditional serif font to the right. It is simple enough to be a recognizable brand and it is placed all around the FTW Zoo area.

Wow...so to comment mellispinelli... I didnt even see the elephant, I saw the FW first. I guess maybe I assumed it was trying to symbolize a giraffe...giraffes are scary to asians.
