Contest $30 logo contest 48 Hours

My client is a well established restaurant design and supply company called J. Sullivan Company
Their web site will be www.jsullivancompany.com
The client is looking to express that their company handles all of the work of designing, building, furnishing and supplying restaurants. So far, the client has envisioned two possible images one of Atlas(with the world on his back) the other (preferred) an open hand palm up with fingers pointing toward the viewer as if handing something to the viewer. In or above the the palm of the hand a restaurant. You may think of something better.

The contest is for 48 hours or until a clear winner is decided on. Please let me know in the thread if you have any questions. The winner will need to provide the logo in psd or vector (preferably both, but not required)
Payment will be to the winners paypal
All questions and submissions must be submitted through the thread. I will not take any PM-ed designs or questions.
I like to give 2nd and 3rd place awards but will only do so for good work
I have told my client to be available to respond quickly but please be patient as there may be a little delay in feedback.
Thanks
Leland

 

Kicking this off.

Thank you for being the first to submit your work.
I like that you tried to incorporate the different facets of the restaurant business.
With so few items it is an over simplification. For only two examples there is nothing about designing the restaurant nor furnishing it in your box icons. I fear that if you tried to make a box for each facet of their business it would be cluttered.
Thanks
Leland

 

Thoughts on this?

 

To combine your idea with the customers; Maybe Atlas with the world on his shoulders with a bakers hat on the world.
My client wants to give the idea that their company does it all in the world of restaurants.

 

Here is another attempt at it.

 

feedback appreciated

 

Comments to post #6. This looks more like chef to the world than world class designer and supplier of restaurants.
Please reread my comments to you and the original requirements. If you don't understand please ask in the string. I am very willing to explain as thoroughly and extensively as needed.

This logo looks more like the company should be a baking company. It is in fact a designer and supplier of restaurants.

 

My try :



Please feedback ... Thanks!

 

Now put the world on the shoulders of Atlas. You know, the mythological guy that the ancients thought was carrying the world on his shoulders!

 

Now put the world on the shoulders of Atlas! See google images search word "Atlas".

 

I know who is Atlas
I will try to post the revision ASAP ,
Thanks for feedback!

For inspiration see google images keyword "Atlas"
also
see google images key word "world in hand"
I have yet to see anyone even attempt either of these imageries. Looks like a quick $30 for anyone who can get this done with very little competition.
Thanks
Leland

 

my entry . hope u like it . feedback please / tnx and enjoy . ighy

 

Hello,

I've posted my try in attachment. The main idea was placing the restaurants around the world, but still keeping it simple and without too much graphic. Feedback appreciated.

Colors,overall setting, text, effects, etc. can all be changed on request. I was in kind of a rush.

Thank you,

Bucko

 

And another one without the world.

Thank you,

Bucko.

 

I THINK this may be the closest so far that the client would like. I would like to also present the same style hand under the building hand open and palm up. Can the building look fancier. Maybe ornate or maybe the silver not crossed but side by side like in a formal setting, maybe even three utinsils like a very formal setting.
Thanks
Leland

 

This is Very Nice. It definitely has the world held feel. What can be done to show not just world of cooking but world of restaurants. Please note that I thought the Head was an egg until I looked at it carefully. Can something be done to fix that?
Thanks
Leland
