In the eighties, spirals were the non-pedo art rage. These people have probably just taken the spiral and conformed it to a swiss chalet shape, or 'haus'. Not to insult them, but their website is a little backward graphically so it is no surprise that the logo is not inspired.
So they have some kids do art and a bad logo and what else? Really this is not enough at all to call them 'scumbags'. What if they are really nice people who love art and want to offer it to a community since public schools have had to drop music and art in a lot of counties? The art they show seems wholesome to me.
They were founded in 1996, not the 80s, and it doesn't appear that they had a logo until a few years after that.
And as an old fart, I don't know what you're talking about - I don't remember spirals being "all the rage" in the 80s, and I still own a lot of my gear from the 80s. The closest "spiral" we had in the 80s were those god awful spiral perms.
I'm not saying they are a pedo front, but your whole "spirals were popular in the 80s" argument makes no sense.
You can't be that old, CP2, because you don't remember spirals. Please to go to google images and google "spirals art eighties" and you will see a zillion spirals.

I may be old but I know my memory is not that bad (yet), spirals were not "all the rage" in the 80s. I don't know why you are claiming this.
And I have already googled "80s spiral art" "80s pop art" and "spirals art 80s" and guess what, hardly any spirals show up.

Hey I called you the opposite of old. And the spirals are there, but we will just agree to disagree.
