A new Amethyst logo

Amethyst, the most popular Nostr client for Android, was first launched in early January 2023. Its original logo design featured a tall, warm purple hexagon with the shape of an ostrich head and beak in the negative space that was also vaguely reminiscent of an arm with a hand making the shaka symbol. 🤙
Since then, it has undergone iterations, and now features a cooler purple-to-blue gradient in a more abstract shape which somewhat resembles an A, but isn’t as successful as it should be.
In nature, an amethyst is a hexagonal crystal with deep and rich violet colors. This new design attempts to bring some of that back in a thoughtful and refined way. The new design features an avian face, made up of simple geometric shapes set into a symmetrical hexagon with rounded edges. The colors are vibrant and contrasting, and it is accompanied by a geometric sans-serif typeface that is both bold and distinctive.
I hope this new logo will be embraced by the community, as I think it will help elevate Amethyst to have a friendlier and more polished-looking brand, while still staying true to its origins, and the spirit of the Nostr. 💜
