When did Ayu start using the "A" symbol?

Hello,
This question is suddenly popping me out. Then, I get curious about it. When was it? And also, who is the creator of the "A" symbol?

I don't know if there's a thread about this before. I'm sorry for the second thread.

Thanks.

The "old" A symbol was used for A Single, the new A symbol as we know it now was first used for LOVEppears Album + appears Single

Then why are you saying it.. Sure you must have thought there are people who didn't know it yet

Like me, thanks! That's actually really cool!

I think the A logo was inspired from the Pi number

The A for the A single is a combination of the first letters from trauma, Too Late, End roll, and monochrome.

Yeah I guess I kinda see it. I forget where, but that's what I read somewhere a while back about the origin of the monochrome single A.

The creators of the logo were rice+momoya, the design company or w/e that's done all of her design work since then..

I think it's under TYPE+LOGO.

Yeah, that makes more sense. I would have been really amazed if Ayu had made it by herself.
