Text logo

In addition to the pictorial logo, we have also created a few textual logos which might be useful.

We first designed them as a way to take up upper left chest square space nicely on tshirtstudio.com T-shirts, as a long one line version of ourbigbook.com would be too small and unreadable.

The main idea of the text logo is to make a letter square with uppercase monospace font letters:

OUR
BIG
BOOK
.COM

Could make the OBB red and other letters white. But that does come a bit closer to our dreaded ÖBB name competitor.

Note that monospace fonts are not actually square, only fixed width: graphicdesign.stackexchange.com/questions/45260/name-for-type-that-has-the-same-width-and-height

Another idea to differentiate from ÖBB would be to go lowercase:

obb

Figure 52. 3x4.svg text logo. This one was done without scaling. The font is a slightly tall rectangle, leading to a natural 3x4 aspect ratio.

Figure 53. 3x4-1000.png text logo. This is a rasterization of 3x4.png to 1000x1000 px. Since SVG does not contain the actual font, we always need PNG exports for reproducibility.

Figure 54. 3x3.svg text logo. This was made by scaling down a version of the 3x4.svg logo. We had to add some extra space between lines before however, otherwise it would feel too cramped after scaling.
