The pink! The retro font! This logo screams retro vibes and perfectly celebrates the Academy's 50th anniversary with a nod to the past. The copywriting is spot on, and I love the simple yet bold design that captures the spirit of the time. Total win!

The logo is thoughtfully designed and highly versatile, making it suitable for a wide range of applications, from branded materials to digital platforms. The typography feels modern and aligns seamlessly with the school’s identity, offering broad adaptability while maintaining a cohesive look. It’s smart and engaging in its execution.

This logo is fun and versatile. I especially like its many iterations — with and without the tagline, school logo, and "The Original."

From the beautifully rendered, monogram-like mark to the typography's thicks and thins, this logo is truly a pleasure to behold. I couldn't love it more.

A great logo with plenty of impact and a simple yet definitive visual representation of what they are all about.
