Our Ideas & Additional Information
Requirements: A Horizontal Rectangular Full Logo and a Square Icon (Vector Format).

The purpose of our logo redesign is to update our outdated logo to have a more modern appearance. I have attached our old logo as a good starting point for everyone's designs. However, don't feel constrained to stick to our original flame design, we have not updated our logo in years and would love to see some unique re-imaginings!

As an electric fireplace retailer we want our logo, and the color palette used in it, to have a warm feel. We want the existing "ElectricFireplacesDirect.com" and slogan text to remain but are open to a more readable text font.

Hi All! We love the submission we have received so far. I wanted to clarify a typo this contest had in the title when it was first launched.

Our company is call Electric Fireplaces Direct (or ElectricFireplacesDirect.com). Apologies to everyone who created logos with depot in their names.

The submissions are looking great! We will start sending feedback to everyone soon.

Also, don't feel constrained to stick to our original flame design, we have not updated our logo in years and would love to see some unique re-imaginings!

Hi All! We've discussed all of the submissions to-date and have some general feedback to help steer everyone in the direction of what we are looking for:

1. We've seen a lot of electricity imagery (electrical plugs, lighting bolts, etc.) combined with a flame and really like that approach. It helps communicate we specifically sell electric fireplaces, not fireplaces in general. (Not required, we still love some of the flame only and other designs).

2. We've decided we do not want a red orange color scheme (we really like the color schemes with different shades of orange, as well as the classic black text with a colorful logo)

3. We want to ensure a modern atheistic for this logo, keep that in mind when designing your flames or other art

4. Don't feel constrained to mimic our old logo, we really want to see what all of the possibilities are for updating the EFD logo. (Not required, there are some very similar submissions that we love too)

We are still getting internal feedback and reviewing the submissions, will return with more guidance soon. If you have any specific questions or want feedback on a design feel free to ask in the design's comment section.

Congrats Finalists! We've reviewed the submissions and have some general feedback for all designs:

1. We've decided we do not want ".com" in the logo name

2. We do not want the word "Direct" de-emphasized. Direct implies low price and we want be clear about that.

3. We've decided we want our slogan in the logo
