The work
Eagle approached COGNAK for a logo redesign in early 2018, the original not having been touched since the early 1990s. The ask was fairly simple: modernize the logo, and apply a background. What evolved was a sharp reclassification of iconography, with a new style and depth from flat layers. The font is a stunning throwback featuring familiar, yet fresh, modern notes. The entire icon—logo and font—now feels both striking and simple.
