Thank you for the invite and the opportunity to submit for your project. Here are a few ideas that I came up with for your business.
#97 Real Estate sign with two "c" shapes forming a sort of wave.... #102 Wave to represent the environment and possible geographical element. #106, #107, #110 two "C" shapes form a house in negative space. #111 Another one with an environmental feel
The color schemes for all fit nicely into an area of environmental consciousness, while still delivering a strong message as to what you do.
Feel free to provide feedback and suggestion as they are always welcome and are an important element to the design process...
Paul - dynamite!! #111 jumps to number 1 - non question. I think it may be perfect just as it is. One question is how it would look in black and white since I still do some newspaper print - can you throw one at me to see? Anything else if you want, but this is super work! Thanks
Mike - Here is an example in Black and White. We can tweak it to work in any color scheme. B/W is never an issue, because we can make you a second version in B/W with the gradients and shadows adjusted for B/W
Thanks for the feedback. It is the KEY to getting you what you want.
Hi Paul - Thanks for the b&w, that looked great. For my logo, I will want files for the whole logo - icon and name, and also just the icon by itself for uses where we only need the house image - will that be possible? I'm ready to end this soon - thanks for all your ideas! Referencing #111.
Mike - I just wanted to see if I could do anything else to the design that may prove helpful? Any revisions, tweaks etc...? Feel free to let me know.
I will be glad to give you the formats listed above. Logo Tournament only allows for the one master file, so I will have to e-mail the rest to you. The total file though is layered. You can remove anything you need. I will be glad to make those separations for you at no additional charge once you have closed out the contest.
Thanks - I sent a note a minute ago - forgot - I also like a line under Conroy, maybe not to the left of it. And the conroy refined as most have done, maybe a little tighter (shorter?) than yours. Could give that a shot as alternatives. Thanks
No problem at all...here you go...(also some additional tweaks.) #199 #200 #201I added the shadow effect to the outer ring of the entire logo of #201...its very subtle but I like it.
Thanks Paul - I'm a little brain dead from this - meant to say I like a line under Conroy, instead of to the left of Conroy - but with the Conroy & Company still to the right of the icon. #199 and #111 work best, with the line under Conroy. Phew - hard to be clear with words - lots of respect for you guys that translate us!! Got the note about your ability to get me the 'pieces'. Thanks!!
Thanks - then if you can not have them so wide, or stretched, and start the Conroy a little closer to the icon - my other top choice may provide some guidance.
#206 will be the one - if you can make Conroy as dark as the Conroy in #111 and enlarge the &Company a bit like the one in #111 (seems a bit bigger) - than we are done, you win and I will close out the contest tonight, and we'll get it together from there! Thanks a ton.
Mike - I hope this looks OK. When I pinched the "CONROY" part earlier it changed the way the "& Company part looked in proportion...just let me know if I need to reduce or enlarge the bottom wordmark any further....thanks for your feedback tonight. You could hold a clinic on this, you'd be amazed at how many clients I get who think I'm a mind reader. Your feedback has been GREAT!
That's a winner! I'm very psyched with the end result - very warm, organic yet professional and clean! You've done a great job working with me! I will end the contest in a minute - as I mentioned, I will need it in b&w and color, and if you can get me a version we can work with that just has the icon separately, and the whole thing that will be great. I will need to be able to email a logo to a newspaper, or magazine for their use. Also, local printers for simple stuff, and our own versions to print out on mailing labels etc. So, you know the fancy way (eps - whatever that is) and the simple way - jpg's, etc.
Send me some info afterwards about other products you could do - I'm at mike@conroycouture.com. I'm moving to a new brokerage and may have needs. Thanks again - you've worked hard for me and I appreciate it. Mike
