You can learn a lot about the process of designing a logo by tracing one. The design appears to be based on the ubiquitous DIN typeface – so popular it has its own web site. Simple tweaks were made to every character but the “n”, and the dots were dropped. You can see the minor…

The original 2D artwork was created by Andrew, of course. I merely “pulled up a Z” and rendered it in Cinema4D.
