We are often taught that if a logo does not work as a vector does not work as a black & white image, then scrap it. Sometimes this is true and these are key rules to live by… However, we feel that most often the logo is a subjective and personal experience, and if the story and the aspect of the business is unconventional, then this calls for an unconventional approach where those rules do not exist. HEXANINE.COM went deep into the new trend of what they like to call FLUID IDENTITIES… “The days of the static logo are certainly not extinct, but this persistent way of thinking about malleable identities seems like a portend of things to come.”

A Little Taste of West Coast Culture
Aside from having the most banginest cup of bacon fat-coffee (yup, bacon fat), this place is also a great source of avant-garde independent music, old and new, in the beautiful Mission District of San Francisco. A hole in the wall in the middle of an industrial/residential neighborhood, PCR doubles as a 5 star coffee house as well as a super cool radio station full on with performances by local artists as well.
All nostalgia for SF aside, its interesting to see yet another successful permutation of the skull/creature/animal and crossbones in a brand. The power of cliche should not be overlooked so quickly, especially when used in different business formats rich in creativity and quality.
