Katana Logo & Wordmark Branding Concept

I've been following along the progress of this awesome project, Katana, that recently won the 2021 Solana Ignition Hackathon.

I love what they're doing, and it's still early stages for the company, but I found a bit of the design lacking and wanted to help them out. I took the original concept of their logo, with the "cube" or "diamond" shape of diagonal lines and re-drew it to have a bit more crispness. I then adjusted the logo + wordmark asset, with Inter typeface, and made it a simple 4:1 aspect ratio that will be legible at a variety of sizes.

Katana is currently in development, but you can check out the current version here.
