The story Zo’C logo owl

Zo'C OwlZo'C Owl I have recieved a lot of nice feedback regarding the new layout of the Zo’C blog and one of the most commented items is the logo, and people wonder where idea came from.

The idea came from a little wooden owl that I have for years, since I was a kid.

I don’t really know, how it happened to become mine, but I have it for more than two decades now, and it is been sitting over my computer’s monitor for almost a decade.

So I decided that this nice and loyal little fellow would give good inspiration for the logo.

The logo is actually its silhouette, cutted vertically on halves and mirrored, to have perfect simetry.

The owl being a symbol for people who like to work at night, like most computer related developers is a nice plus, but was not the main reason for the choice.

  • I guess it’s my fault because in the process, the owl big eyes disappeared and the feathers are somewhat hidden by the text.
