I'll be happy to know your comments or suggestions about my #46, #48, #54, #55 logo proposals.
In my #46, #48 concept I combined a canelé with a coffee's cup handle and I created a smart and modern icon that instantly portrays your business. #54 & # 55 is a playful illustration of three can-can dancers that instead of a head they're having a coffee bean!
I'll also try to make some new ideas based on the bee icon. I was wondering why you have chosen a bee as an idea, is there any special significance to that, maybe a name... or the team work as a symbolism?
The bee is important to our product, and a symbol of ecological consciousness that infuses our brand.
I love the canele as coffee cup! The fewer lines we use for the canele girl, the better, she needs to look good (i.e. be decipherable) big as well as small. Color is a key element in the cancan girl execution - Different colors of skirt will represent different flavors of the pastry, for example.
We really like entry #46, and would like to request you do some variations on this layout:
-We'd like to see a more modern, squared off handle on the coffee cup. Our actual cups will be white 9 oz stackable cups. I tried to embed photo here but no luck!
-We'd like to see options with: a small bee rising from the steam of the coffe cup, and a can can girl rising from the steam of the coffee cup.
-We'd like to see a version with the Café Canelé writing from #46 with your can can girl from entry #121 above it
-We'd like to see a version with the Café Canelé writing from #46 with a single bee image above it. We'd like the bee to be "friendly" looking but not cartoony. Face not necessary. Bold lines vs. flowy.
Thank you very much for the feedback and the explanation about the bee :) I'm really glad that you like my concepts and I'll revise my designs according to your comments.
Hi Pink, we really like #141 which we've ranked first -- we'd like to see the bee look a bit more thick lined/defined, like the bee by one of your competitors :-) currently ranked #8. The bee will appear as it is above the cup..but also will be a stand alone logo element, sometimes with the words Cafe Canele below, sometimes not.
