Thanks to all for your contributions!

To all of you: please don't use the slogan in the logo.

#4, #5, #6, #7: wordmark is nice

#1, #2: may be some variants of letter casing

#3: more masculine please

#6, #7: abstract mark is too bulky

#7: no background please

No slogan in the logo, please!

What about an additional color? I would like to get an impression of a combination of blue with another color!

Please don't place the abstract mark above the text (unlike #4 or #54)

What about a wording like bluMatix oder bluMatiX ?

Hi there,

After two days of ranking your inspiring entries and providing individual feedback we will now provide consoidated feedback which should help you to develop your entries.

Abstract Mark:
The Abstract Mark should represent a 'frame', 'border', 'enclosure', 'surrounding', etc.
'Frame' stands for 'framework' (which is the key-property of blumatix's solutions). The framework takes care of that going on inside the surrounding. Insde of the 'frame' there is plenty of space for indviduality, flexibility, future expansions, etc.
The Abstract Mark should communicate this picture. Inside the abstract mark there should be space for future graphical expansions. The Abstract Mark must be defined in its basic form which must be very simple as well as unique. 3-dim and other effects should be developed out of the basic form (in further steps).
The Abstract Mark must be recognizable in its basic form (2-dimensional, single color) and it must 'survive' the "DTP-Officetest": Scale down the abstract mark by 50%, copy it b/w and then fax the result. The abstract mark must be recognizable on the received fax.

Wordmark:
The Wordmark should be also designed in its basic form. The font must be very good readable. The casing of blumatix may be varied. 'Blumatix', 'BluMatix', 'BluMatiX', 'blumatix', 'bluMatix', 'bluMatiX', etc.
We prefer fonts without serifs. Some letters (e.g. ths'x' at the end) might be modified graphically.

Color:
The color of Wordmark and Abstract Mark should communicate the key properties: expertise, reliability, economical.
We prefer dark, not too loud, shrill, glaring colors. Dark blue, anthracite, silver, grey, etc.
