I really liked the way in which Idiom Design interpreted the Central Mall logo. The logo connects well with the 'playfulness' theme.
If my memory serves me right, Idiom Design & Consulting itself is a Future Group initiative. I remember reading about its formation in the book 'It happened in India' written by Kishore Biyani who heads Future Group.

Central Mall
Brand: Central Mall
Owned by: Pantaloon Retail (India) Limited under Future Group
Design: Idiom Design & Consulting
Design brief: ‘Central is designed as a playful public space, where people congregate, in the heart of the town. The logo is based on a simple game — rolling ball maze game — that every human being knows. The beads are people, heading for the centre of town and playfully enjoying themselves.
Red is a simple public color. The typography is based on Jigsaw font. It looks modern and timeless. The font is stencilized to make it look fresh and public.’
Logo release: Circa 2004
