Black Bear Design-BuildLogo Design Contest

Design and construct large residential remodeling projects.

Black, red and white

I would like to see a black background with the company name and a stylized line drawing of a black bear. The line drawing should be a profile facing to the right and it can either be a whole bear, top half of a bear or a bear's head. The bear cannot be threatening or cartoonish, but should be regal and watching out for the client's interests. Please see www.blackbear.com for example. Another possibility is to use a native american style bear. Please see http://home.earthlink.net/~alittlethis/sitebuildercontent/sitebuilderpictures/hpim1644.jpg.

I would like the bear to be solid red (PMS 185) in order to make people think about the fact that the company is called "Black Bear" but the bear is red. Also will accept black bear on red background.

The main advertising is on 5' tall x 3' wide signs that will be placed in the front yards of the homes we work on and as such should be simple with the company name large enough to read while driving past.

Attached is a layout of how I would like to see the lettering with a space for the black bear, though using this exact font and layout is not crucial
