Dragon Bicycle Co-op

Fri, 18 Feb 2011 00:12:28 +0000

Graham, this is for a bike co-op that serves a homeless community. The gentleman who runs it is nicknamed Dragon. I wanted to use a D as a mark and worked up a stylized dragon to create that. Effective in typography? Too much for main line? Color? Weight? Balanced?

Trailor Music News Logo Design

imjustcreative — Thu, 16 Dec 2010 14:54:00 +0000

Hi Graham,

I am working on the logo, layout and overall visual identity of www.trailermusicnews.com. First I would like to add that was a long debate of the name aswell. ‘trailermusicnews’ was born from functionality and it provides news, interviews, articles regarding trailer music which is just a part of production music business. Tho trailermusicnews.com seems to surpass its original purpose and cover every news, events regarding epic music.

I guess an explanation is needed here: epic music basically become a synonym of trailer music. Trailer music describes a typical music genre: massive orchestra with choral sound. First fans used epic music to describe the songs of popular trailer music companies such as Two Steps From Hell, Immediate Music, X-ray Dog. We thought that we don’t want to leave behind the reputation trailermusicnews.com built over the two years.

So want to stick to this name, but from the beginning it was used as an abbreviation: TMN. So we decided we can built a brand on TMN must efficiently than on trailermusicnews.com so that’s why the abbreviation features in the logo. But we wanted to catch and built epic music into the brand that’s why we created a tag line very early: “Junkies for epic music.” TMN is a community site for fans who love epic music, but further we would like to have a store to sell music.

The T letter of our previous logo, which one features on the site now (letters in circle) is really confusing, because people can not decide it’s T or M and I wanted to catch this and inherit it into the new logo. I want the logo to break from trailermusicnews and make it a stand alone symbol of TMN.

Also I would like to know your opinion on wabpage layout.

Stock Exchange Logo

imjustcreative — Fri, 19 Nov 2010 15:14:00 +0000

Hey,

I am working on a logo design proposal for a trading firm dealing with stock brokers,traders,trade stocks etc (like stock exchange). I have come up with the following options. Not a must, but they showed some interest in an icon incorporating a graph, pic chart etc. while retaining a corporate feel.

A simple bar graph would have been too obvious, so instead I have opted for this horizontal bar graphs. Also, I wasn’t too enthusiastic about using pie charts as they have been overly used. I was hoping I could have some feedback regarding the icon for this logo.

Wharton Logo Revison

Wed, 10 Nov 2010 17:28:01 +0000

I Client of mine had this logo designed for him. He asked me my opinion. I said like the idea but it did not looked finished. I was then tasked to finish the logo. Need your help. (paulwhartonstyle.com)The client is a TV personality that offers workshop on modeling and makeovers. My client is also coming out with his own cosmetics line. The word “style” at the bottom of the logo will be interchangeable with the different parts of his brand, e.g. “cosmetics” or “makeover”. Twitter ID @ecographics.

Having just recently graduated I’ve been struggling to design a logo to represent myself as a fresh, young and enthusiastic designer/photographer. So far the only design that I feel ‘happy’ with is the one posted above, I feel its simplicity reflects my design style. However I am open to criticism and would love to get peoples opinions on the current design and how to improve it.

Thanks

Hey, I could really use the help deciding on this. The above logo is my current but I’ve had a lot of problems utilizing this efficiently considering all of my web design is grid based and I use my logo’s on the footer of my posters and it looks off in both places; always. The bottom is a potentially new logo which would work great for using the space ship as icons on Facebook and twitter.

Brand Discription: Friction Online™ is a multi-disciplinary design firm based out of the Boston Metrowest area with a focus on philanthropy. We mix good design and business savvy with a hint of humanitarianism in hopes of a happier world.

Hey, can I add a logo to a post from earlier? They suggested I make some subtle changes, like upper case instead of lower case on my "photography" word, and I wanted to update the post and get more feedback, is that possible?

Logo for a web design and business branding company. Typical target market is businesses that have been in business for around 5-7 years and have realized that they actually need to look like a real company. Thus, Empower - the www part of that is, while i also do traditional advertising, well, we all know the web is the way in the door. http://empowwwer.com

I’ll take all the constructive feedback I can get.

Thanks for starting this!

U-Haul

justinbarber — Wed, 15 Sep 2010 13:46:59 +0100

I’m currently a senior in high school and I’m working on a portfolio of comprehensive projects to submit to the various art colleges I’m applying to. My first project was to re-brand U-Haul. I’ve done this totally independently and haven’t heard any feedback or advice on it at all. You can see the entirety of my process and further application of the logo (trucks, website, etc.) here: http://issuu.com/justinbarber/docs/uhaulrebrand

(I accidentally saved it the wrong way, so each page should actually be two individual pages)

Love to hear what you all have the think. Thanks!

Hi Graham,

First off, what do you think of the overall logo? It is for a local cover band which is made up of three female singers.

Now to my question…I am just looking for some professional input on a minor adjustment to the type choice. I am currently using Palatino font and wanted to know what you thought about curving the tail on the letter R. The first example is the original Palatino font, second is a minor curve and the third is a major curve. Do you think its needed at all?

Also, what do you think about this font choice? I really like how is compliments the thick to thin strokes on the logo, I did also try gotham light but this type just stood out more, do you have any more suggestions on the font itself?

Art Platform Logo Design

dannyduhig — Thu, 09 Sep 2010 18:40:34 +0100

Hi There,

The following designs are for a new charity ’ Art Platform’ that hopes to receive money from selling works of art that have been gifted to the charity. Looking to venture into artwork range of £500 - £5000 priced pieces of work, rather than my Grannies watercolours. Mainly contemporary pieces but open to to classical works too.

Idea 1: http://cl.ly/f0746fbdfee3a105cf2c

Developed from the idea of a Mondrian stylised letterforms of the word ‘art’. Originally one icon shape but broke it down into the three, as the client wanted more of a community feel in the designs to reflect the Charity.

Idea 2: http://cl.ly/7786c665a442d115a046

My least favourite but developing an idea of the client’s, although their least favourite, has had good feed backfrom others, idea was that lettering could be removed and the shapes be etched into glass plaques that would go with artwork.

Idea 3: http://cl.ly/6c80661acdb0bae11221

Was a favourite of the client 1st AW made some revisions to sharpen the typeface of art was too classical before, and pulled in the circle to bring in the community, although I feel it may be a bit love hate with that bit.

Any suggestions all welcome…

Also thanks for the blog post Graham,thought i’d give it a try!!

I’ve been playing around with a logo redesign for a few weeks now, and am down to the above two logo styles, as well as a basic idea for a text-version of the same. I need some first aid advice on which logo to go towards, as well as suggestions on how to improve that choice. This design is in black and white for print, but thoughts on color would be awesome. Also, any suggestions for integration of the text-based logo with the “cp” would be much appreciated.

A quick overview: I do web design and development, animation, and video production - pretty much anything “creative.” I want this logo to be a representation of me, of my identity; Something to put on a business card (been thinking of making a design for a MOO MiniCard) and on the site (which is in need of some serious reconstruction).

I’m open for any suggestions and constructive criticism on this. I’m not even sure I want to use the word “creative” in my text ID, since it seems to be a recent online trend to name every design firm “(word) creative.” Friends and family have seen the progression, but very few of them have any design background, and their comments are usually like, “I like that one.” I’m curious on what the online logo community has to say! :)

Hello, I’m starting my own business as a photographer and would like some feedback to my logo design. Its all fonts, designed with that “photography” look that you have probably seen on so many other photographer websites where they use a combo of a script/handwriting with another text line. I chose to make my name look hand written and the word photography be the text. All feed back is welcome, at times I love this logo, but other times I feel its missing something that would put it into a great logo category. So thats why I’m submitting this for feedback. I did a test run of this logo along with about 9 others on my facebook page and this is the design that was picked by an overwhelming number of my target audience (moms and females who make all the photography buying decisions of the family). So I will appreciate all feedback and criticisms. Thanks!

Personal Logo

With this logotype I tryed to convey minimalistic and elegant ideas, features that I love the most.
The “squared” part is made to go on work’s empty space or “frames” and also on social networks profile; the complete one is made to go on personal website and on all the pieces that a full identity need.
I need general and more explicit feedback and conseils about typeface, kerning ecc…I need every feedback or conseil!

Really, thank you for your time

I was not quite impressed with my earlier proposals to my client Abubaker who wanted a small logo to put it on his photography business card, website and probably as a watermark.

My client Abubaker wanted a small logo to put it on his photography business card, website and probably as a watermark.

This being my first venture to do commercial branding, i am quite critical to get it right. Placed here is the logo, watermark and a potential concept for a website header (done in colors with photographs taken by client embedded).

The concept is still in its primitive stage, I would love to get your feedback on any possible scope for improvement as i this being my first venture, i want to get it right.

I came up with the idea of using a camera dial with the icons representing the photography my client specializes in i.e Kids, portrait and street. He felt he would also require a sample with the letter “a” in the dial. (I am not quite sure if sample 2 resembles a dial by any case)

I would love to get your feedback on any/all possible scopes for improvement as i this being my first venture, i want to get it right.

Thanks.
