Logo designed by my dad in 1972-73 for his design practise. Custom type with Helvetica
A short follow up post to my Helvetica one… Just remembered I had this on my drive: the logo my dad designed for his design practise, again proving a point also made by Massimo Vignelli (maybe he was inspired by him), that design is one.
As an interior designer is he was as much obsessed about how a chair was manufactured right down to the patterns on the coffeemugs in the kitchen cabinet.
I love how his hM initials form a chair and table, echoing elements of his furniture designs in the 70s.
Yes, my dad was a Modernist in heart and soul.

Yes - a great logo. Any chance of posting some examples showing more of your dad’s work - as someone who is heavily influenced by Modernism myself, I for one would be interested - that neat logo of his has certainly wetted my appetite for more.
