Logo Design Proposal for Dir - Efficient File Manager App

Details

This time I try to propose a new logo for Dir - Efficient File Manager. This App is an open source GitHub client. This app can be downloaded on Android.
Github link: https://github.com/veniosg/Dir

I used font JohnHancockCP

Folder icon source
Download icon source

APP Icon different size
192 px

144 px

Benefits / Improvements

I am designing this new logo by inserting the folder elements considering this application is very much related to the file settings. But different thing is I try to modify the folder to form three letter that is D, by rotating folder 90 degree, we get letter D implied. Next letter I, I create a rectangle with a little snippet above the folder, then R is implicitly formed because there is a down arrow icon. In fact, the letters do not appear clearly, just disguise it in order to maintain the aesthetic value of a logo. The use of arrows that I adapt from the download icon to indicate that the application is closely related to file management that is not far from the action explore, copy, move, delete and send files.

Tools

In doing this logo, I use Adobe Illustrator CS6 Version 16.0
