We did this hand-drawn logotype for Oilily which will now be Qelavi in the US.
What say ye oh brethren of typographic love.

Its been a long time, I know. Anyway… they almost didn’t care how legible it was. The word doesn’t mean anything and it seems a little fashion upscale to have a logo that is curious at a glance, but obvious once you know the name. There are lots of fashion places that have names that are hard to read like Bvlgari and that Oprah logo is indiscernible but you know it is hers.
Then again… they went out of business! Zoinks!
