Discussion in 'Design Contests' started by CompuByte, Feb 11, 2016.

    We need a quick turnaround on a Valentine's Day restaurant menu design. This is a single-page, legal size (8.5x14).

    Our Valentine's Menu:
    https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BwExkNjFjq5ZMDY3THh3azEtYzg/view?usp=sharing

    Our Logo (if needed, not required):
    https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BwExkNjFjq5ZcVIwendqZjdnTlU/view?usp=sharing

    Samples of what we like:

    http://www.bankandbaronpub.com/sites/default/files/Valentines-Menu-CSTV 2016_0.jpg

    We would prefer to have this designed in Adobe InDesign, but not required.

    Winner will receive $25 (or if really good, maybe a bonus) via PayPal. Contest ends in 24 hours.

    Inches and yes, PSD is good. Remember, if we really like the winner's design, we will give a bonus ranging from $5 - $30.

    Thank you for your 2 submissions. Unfortunately it cannot be in landscape because it will be inserted into our dinner menu book.

    We don't particularly like these designs. I think there is a little too much going on in the background. Looking for something that looks more professional -- maybe something you would find in a large chain restaurant. Will try to post another example of a design we like.

    LOVE every font and color in this example. If you follow this example you will win this contest. Also, as noted above, using our LOGO is NOT REQUIRED.

    Definitely a HUGE improvement! Remove the underling in the and make the dish names in ALL CAPS, while leaving the descriptions unchanged.

    Wow! AWESOME!!
    A few suggestions:
    • Replace the 14 February with FOUR SEASONS.
    • Try to play with the fonts a little, especially on the "Valentines Day Specials".
    • Make the bottom sentence about the desert stand out a little.
    • Try adding some type of white elements, maybe like a rose or heart, just to show some contrast. Similar to what weirdXtreme did in his first entry.

    Perfect! The only problem is with the badge on the top. Maybe try playing with it and changing the fonts. Just doesn't look quite right. Everything else is PERFECT!!
