Hello
I’ve make logo for my site called “OrigamiArabia”
and i’ve problem with the typeface of the logo and im loss
beacuse i tried many types and i cant find a type consistent with the mark.
i used san sierf type

You cannot put all Caps together so tightly and achieve the same effect of two words with tight kerning as in the last example. You do not need to use a geometric sans with a geometric mark, use the factor of juxtaposition to help the elements of type and the graphic elements to complement each other... trust me. Do not use the gradient version of the camel, use the version in the first examples that you gave us. By the way, great graphic mark... good job.
Ok, since nobody else is saying this, let me try to help you visually. You need to look at Geometric Sans fonts to make it work. You are not doing this, and I suspect it’s a language barrier?
ALL SERIF FONTS DO NOT WORK:


GEOMETRIC SANS EXAMPLES:


It seems you already know the answer you want to hear. Why bother asking?
Personally, I’d set it in a light geometric sans, all caps, without the tight kerning. Something like Futura Light, Kabel Light, Gotham Light, or Proxima Nova Light - with a nice round ’O’ and ’G’. But, since you obviously want a tightly kerned serif typeface, go with what you’ve got. It’s not terrible, but it’s not great.

I think the problem with the serif font is that it is too weak. I mean, you need contrast to make it work. So you have a symbol that is very geometric, sharp angels and straight lines. So you either need something that mimics that style or something that complements it. Just a regular everyday serif font isn’t going to serve this symbol well. It needs a strong type to mirror it’s strong build.

How about Fakir?
