Hi Jorge,

So great work! I've had a first look at your proposals, and they all look
amazing!.

Although surely we're going to chat about it next week, let me advance my
opinion about typefaces combination: I think Titilium cokd work both for
"fluid" and "engage" parts. This typeface looks solid, contemporary and
refined at the same time, so it works really well for a logo like ours. I'm
not very sure about using a more neutral font for the "fluid" part, if we
have in mind that it will be frequently applied isolated (with no other
logotypes), and in this case it should keep looking strong and identifying
Fluid as a brand by itself. Maybe it could be interesting to check what
happens with Titilium when Fluid is attached to the other logos.

Thanks for sharing your work! Nice weekend,

Tona
