I like it, though I didn’t get it until I read the quote underneath. Think it is because of the ‘i’ being quite subtle. Does it matter that I didn’t get it?
I agree with Paul that it’s clever. I also agree with Conor in that the lettering needs to be more dramatic as it doesn’t stand out enough to get it right away. I wonder what it would look like with a shorter chair back?
I like it. I saw the hidden word.
Then again I saw that the logo was called sit! but I saw it before reading that the word was hidden which gives it points.
It could have standed out a little more thou
All in all, solid logo, could use some more work.

Weirdly enough, I think I’d prefer this if it didn’t say SIT. If it was just a chair.
it took me far too long to realize where sit was… I hardly can make out the i… the overall image is a lil blurry which is making it hard to read as well.
Good idea, and would be good for a rough, but not a final piece
Subtleties are nice, but I feel like with a logo, it’s important to communicate the name. To have a subtle element like the FedEx arrow offers a nice “A ha!” moment, but whether people see it or not doesn’t affect the name recognition. It’s a whole ‘nother story when the subtlety is the name.
I like it, it’s a good idea, but I think it needs to read more clearly.
The ‘i’ is definitely the main culprit in this one. I think a little more work on it would make the ‘i’ more clear to the eyes, and give this logo what it needs for standing applause!

I really like the logo, but I’ll have to agree on the “I” problem. Since it’s in-between, the horizontal bar on the top almost makes it read more like “STI.”
I’m no professional, but I wonder what would happen if you did something to the I to make it not just straight up and down, like take notches out of it or curve it inwards or something. Or wait, if I look realllly close am I hallucinating when I see a little nip out of it? I might try exaggerating that a bit more (or just ignore this if I’m simply insane.)
Possibly even make an ornamental cut out of the horizontal bar to dot the “i.” Though, I wouldn’t suggest that. I like the simplicity the logo holds right now.
A clever idea. I imagine it would be for a furniture company or something
Interesting! Not very clear though, if Sit wasnt all over the page I probably wouldn’t have gotten it. It’s better than the sex toys one at least! lol

Maybe if the “SIT” stood out abit more, that’s is my only suggestion. The concept is a good one though.

What about putting ‘SIT’ in a different color? I think that would be the icing on the cake.

I like the concept. Maybe sit could have been brought out more with a different angle on the chair.
‘SIT’ could definitely be more pronounced.
A worthy addition to LOTD.
I rather enjoy the subtlety. In the words of David Hylton: it’s all about the subtleties.
“Conceptual logo, a rendered chair with a _hidden_ word ’sit’.”
It is actually supposed to be hidden.
I like it just the way it is… not to visible, not too hidden.

Thanks for the feedback guys! I really appreciate
