Новое лого у Visual Studio 2010 & Microsoft .NET

Ну вот до PDC осталось совсем чуть-чуть.

Все MVP уже скачали CTP релиз Visual Studio 2010 и ждут, когда ее официально покажут на PDC чтобы и самим можно было о ней написать в своих блогах.

А пока мы боялись сказать лишнего (ох уж этот NDA), западные евангелисты раскрыли тайну нового лого для Visual Studio & Microsoft .Net:



Почему именно такое?

We needed a logo that was in sync with the key values that we want .NET
to stand for: consistency, robustness and great user experiences. We
also wanted a logo that conformed to the design principles that are
driving Microsoft’s brand identity evolution and is reflected in newer
brands such as Silverlight, Surface and ‘Strata.’  Finally, we needed a
logo that is more strongly aligned with the portfolio of brands that
.NET is most strongly aligned with: Silverlight, Visual Studio and the
AppPlat server products.
The result is a design we refer to as the “wave.”  The design is
strong, simple and distinctive. The suggestion of the letter ‘N’ in the
design will become instantly recognizable over time as shorthand for
the .NET brand name.
It's one of many things we're actively doing to renew our commitment to
the future around the overall Rich Platforms we have today.

Мне кажется — у них получилось. А вам?
