Twincam Logo Idea

Thursday, September 9th, 2010

Some of you will know that the old school Toyota logo (often referenced as TEQ or TE7) is actually the word Toyota written in Japanese Katakana.

I thought I’d check out what it would look like if the word TWINCAM (tsu-i-n-ka-m) was written in the same style, thinking of eventually having a sticker put on the back of my car where the English twincam sticker used to be). Here’s some mockups of what it could possibly look like (from the first, which is pretty chaotic, to the most recent):



I haven’t worked out the best way to have the ‘i’ and ‘n’ yet… I found a way where they fit perfectly together but then the ‘n’ looks more like a ‘ri’, which makes it unreadable. There’s also still way too much whitespace.

Edit: on posting this, I realise that I should add the number 16 at the end…
