CookumLogo Design Contest

Circular, unique format that focuses on the elegance of the brand and website. The pie is also fairly generic as a food element as it could contain fruits, meat, vegetables, etc and also lends itself to the idea of "baking".

A vintage and retro feeling with more complex illustrative forms for the mixing bowl.

A focus on the iconic and elegance of the brand. The icon is a mouse connected to a chef's hat - speaking directly to purpose and nature of the site.

Simple, but clean and impactful. Simple tablecloth-checkered pattern lends itself to the idea of eating.

A varied approach to the mouse and chef's hat idea. This also includes the "mmm" tagline.

(This comment references Entry #40)

A playful idea that has a double meaning. Again, playing with the idea of the mouse connecting to the chef; however, since they are used as the "O's" in the logo - they form a smile from the mouse cord as well.

Alternate version using slightly smaller icon with a mix up of #41 and #38.

New concept introducing more of a personal feel by adding multiple character faces to show community. Note addition of the ".com" to show internet relevance.

Using an abstract personage to represent the community and forming the "k" in Cookum.

Alternate version using more people to reinforce the idea of community and connection through food.

Updated version of #48. Here I focused on tightening the layout and adding a little more depth through the use of varying the hues. There is also a little more spacing throughout the letters.

Here we updated the mouse into a computer monitor featuring users - adding the idea of an online community as well. Now we have a food, a network, a computer and a community reference. Although I agree with the mouse being a little dated, I think the way that it was integrated in the original concept was fairly unique and stylized. Adding a monitor won't be so easy for #41 though since the shape is different.

Here's a new idea playing off the community idea a little more. The ".com" gives a tie-in to the internet aspect in a non-symbolized way.

New idea playing with less used imagery. The utensils become like circuitry (like on a circuit board) that you would find in any modern technology.

Here's a new concept using the mouse hand cursor (symbolizing a link) clicking on the world - meaning global, community, and more importantly, the world wide web (reinforced by the cursor). The chef is connected to this action through a small wire.

Making use of a widely recognized symbol for a computer network referencing a community or shared ideas connecting to the chef.

(This comment references Entry #64)

Another version of the same idea this time using just a standard mouse cursor (maybe more recognizable?) with no wire in between connecting the two - since it's implied anyways. Hopefully in some of these I have touched on what you were looking for. Give me any new variations or mixes you wish to see.

Using your specified color scheme in this set more accurately. Here we have the chef with a meal (or more specifically a bowl dish).

(This comment references Entry #77)

Using the monitor and chef in a larger, more visible way.

(This comment references Entry #78)

I know you don't like the mouse idea, but I thought I'd exhaust all possible combinations I could think of. This one kind of has a stronger website/computer feeling.

Here is a new set of logo concepts and ideas. Please mix and match any elements you like between these and my previous ones. Tried a couple new things as well.
