Chamber Music PittsburghLogo Design Contest

Hi,

Thanks for all your submissions! Although we are seeing some designs we see potential in, there isn’t one that is standing out in particular at this point. Here is some feedback we have based on what we have seen thus far:

1. Many of the designs look too traditional and old fashioned – we would like it to be more modern. Think less 19th century, more 21st century. For example, many of the fonts used that are quite “swirly” look too traditional.

2. Although we had requested that the designs include some use of music staves/notes, we would also be interested to see some designs without any staves/notes/music symbols.

3. We would like it to be clear that the words “Chamber” and “Music” are separate words, rather than reading as “Chambermusic”. So, either having these on separate lines or with clear spacing in between them would be good.

4. We do not want the word “Pittsburgh” to be undervalued in the title, so we would like that word to be more integrated into the logo, or at least enlarged to be more equal with size the words “Chamber Music”.

5. We would like the design to be designed with a white background, since this is more practical for our daily office use.

Thanks, and looking forward to seeing more designs!
