Here we have a logo that I designed for an Oracle-based internal business tool that we use at NI. The team that implemented the tool decided to call it "Apollo" (which appealed to me, as I had just finished BSG), who is the Greek god of the sun. So I went through a lot of revisions that used the sun in some way, and they settled on this one. I like it, but it kind of seems like a credit card logo to me.

This is the iteration that I preferred. It has this "outer space feeling" that reminds me more of the Apollo moon missions than the Greek god. I also feel that this logo has a little more depth.
The type in both logos is a hand-tooled type, loosely based on Futura. The goal was to take Futura's simple, geometric shapes and extend them. It almost seems like a Futura-Helvetica hybrid...
