============================================ There are 3 parts to this post, please see all first 3 post in this thread ============================================ Hi all, I need a simple yet really outstanding logo to be made. Parent company is called "Sapphiro". But I will have many subsidiaries: Can use the same "Century Gothic Bold" font if you want for the font face. ------------------------------------- I need my logo to be either one of these 2 patterns: (Wireframe like this. For the pictorial logo, it is just a sample, I'm still choosing the best design.) Pattern #1 is similar to the Rolex logo. A pictorial logo above the words. All centralised Pattern #2 is more for shop signs. I'm considering both. (or even taking both versions) (This color is only just for demo, I still prefer ice blue/ice green as mentioned below) ---------- Color scheme for the pictorial logo, I like all these: Ice blue, and Ice green. (Even better if you can somehow incorporate both ice blue and ice green in the pictorial logo). Theme color of overall logo is mostly white font, black or really dark gray background, remaining is ice blue and icegreen (especially for the logo symbol to represent Sapphiro as a famous brand) ------------------ *Please see the post right after this for part 2 of my contest details
PART TWO Shape of the pictorial logo I haven't really decide yet, but it must be really outstanding. (e.g. Rolex is the "king" of watch, the logo has a crown, just looking at the logo you know it's prominent) Idea 1) I can consider an ice crown, can use this as inspiration, but make sure if you're only using "3" ice spikes make sure it doesnt look like a middle finger. You can consider 5 spikes etc etc. Other shapes I like: I like this lamborghini "reuleaux shape", but at the same time this reuleaux/shield shape is very overused. One look one know it's lamborghini. I want something different, the shape I want should not clash with existing famous brands. This "fire shape" is another really nice shape, but same thing it's already taken by a famous brand. Other possible shapes. I really like the last one alot, especially the details but again I want something unique, with my color scheme and the logo pattern as mentioned earlier etc. ------------------------- * Please read part 3 (final part) below, thanks!
PART THREE I can also consider more creative shapes (Fire shape, but ice blue fire shape, anyone?) Can also consider this.. "Frozen sun-fire" concept would be cool too. You can even combine fire and the reauleux shape, I don't know how you will do that but I'll consider all cool entries, even if the shape is something else that I mention here. But roughly just by these demo hope you understand the concept I want for my Sapphiro logo This is my current website for Sapphiro Web Development: http://www.sapphiro.com/webdevelopment/ (I really like my ice blue layout alot, but the logo can still use ice green/ice blue as per mentioned earlier. This website is only for my Sapphiro Web Development, I will still have many different Sapphiro companies. Overall, I don't want all my sapphiro brand to look too blue. Can be either ice blue/black or sometimes white and ice/green (think of snowcap mountains or siberian ice glacier)) -------------- Contest ends at the end of 7 days. Winner will be chosen when there are at least 1 entry meeting my standards. If none meet my standard, I'll extend the contest by another 7 days but adding another $25 or $50 usd each time, until I get the "one" or some really good ones meeting or exceeding my standards. Payment is by PayPal. Will give reviews along the way to potential ones. To those first entries that I think is way out from my expectation or the standard I want, I'll not waste your time so I'll let you know when to give up early. Thanks all. Good luck to all competitors for this design contest
I must commend you for a thorough brief. As a designer its so hard to get clients to brief you with good insite. *Applause. Well done. and I will join this contest.
Thanks, looking forward to it! (And if there's a lack of contestants I'll probably also up the contest amount by 25 usd if extension required)
@coolwanz Nice attempt, but not getting the vibe I want and looks a little too kiddy. Looks good for small websites but not the type I want for a cool company brand yet hmmm far from what I want
Not bad for a normal design but not what I want Nice entries, your level of design is the kind of entries I want to see for this contest. Last one is quite good for a normal design but still cannot portray the kind of feeling and experience I want to portray. Need some icy cold feeling rather than just looking like a emerald/gem. (Like my first post you can see some photos, really give you that icy cold great feeling. I like the font you use in the last one, looks professional. (But remember to add in "Sapphiro Internet" for an example) Shape wise still can explore more. The gem design looks good, but can be crazier/ more grand, or if other shapes, Icy cold but shape of fire, or those other rheuleus shape I mention might be cool too)
P/S. I'll keep on going and going for this contest until more and more better entries. I'll also keep adding the prize money or restart with a bigger budget, I need a one-time good logo that can last me 10 years
I don't like your third concept, but the first 2 is not bad, the first one is better. The "Sapphiro Internet" font is better than "SAPPHIRO INTERNET" and "Sapphiro internet" case sensitive texts, can remove the - - sign. But if you don't mind I don't want to choose a winner yet, high chance I'll be upsizing the contest prize till I really get several top tier standards to choose the best one among great ones, but maybe for all those who are near there within the standards will still be paid something. The shape maybe can still improve, it's good, but looking like a water droplet more than a fire, but the portrayal of ice feeling is better. (See if you want to improve, or wait till I improve the prize money to get in more contestants) Thanks btw. Dreametery designer always good
Hahaha! Thank you, Felix! Looking forward to make another sapphiro design in the future. Have a nice day!
