Our Ideas & Additional Information
I built a 3D sign that looks like a 16' oz paper coffee cup with a black lid. The body is matte white and it measures 10' tall. The back 1/4 of the cup is cut off flat so that it looks like the cup is coming out of our wall. The logo/emblem needs to look good on a white cup with a black lid. I love Starbucks, but I do not want to look like a Starbucks variation or rip off. A rectangle with the vertical length longer than the horizontal, an oval, a square would all be fine. I want the words Ginger House Coffee in it and I have in my mind an idea of a ginger bread man that has a mischievous look on his face as he is running but looking directly at you. I want to incorporate (somehow) Just a little shock of red hair or red frosting like a flame that waves in the front middle of his head. This does not need to be prominent. I don't want the gingerbread man to look cutesy or too dressy. I would like him running left to right. The whole thing could be 3-D looking or more flat with less colors could work as well. Our coffee house is leaning towards a more corporate look with a touch of artsy, but not funky or edgy at all.

Think of how it will look on a 10' tall 3D white paper to-go cup with a black lid coming out of a store front with a fog machine making steam come out of the top. Can't wait to see your work!

Hello! Here are some hints for getting the most out of your contest as it progresses:

~~ You, the Client, are very important! Your active participation is the single greatest factor influencing this contest. Active participation by you, the Client, helps you get the logo design you want!
~~ What's active participation? It's updating the brief with more information for Designers to work with as the contest progresses, providing feedback to Designers on their entries when they're submitted, and ranking designs at least once a day.
~~ When you provide feedback to Designers, you increase the chances of getting the logo you want. More feedback = better results!
~~ Leave private feedback by clicking on a design. Feedback will be made public upon contest completion.
~~ Rank designs at least once each day -- this will encourage Designers to submit more entries!
~~ Ranking prevents your contest from going idle! Active contests attract more Designers.
~~ Ranking gets your contest noticed. Unless your contest is Private, 1st place entries are posted to the portfolio page: https://logotournament.com/portfolio
~~ Please note: if you're asking for a design that will require several hours to create, to attract Designers willing to invest that amount of time the prize should be at least $400-$500. All "Character" style logos fall into this category.
~~ Designers are not offended by "Not Interested." We'd like to know what you don't want so we can give you the design you do want.
~~ The first phase of the contest is the "Open" phase, and everyone can submit during that time.
~~ After your contest's initial "Open" phase closes, it will enter the "Top 5" phase; only the top 5 ranked Designers will be able to submit revisions at that time.
~~ The "Top 5" Designers are the first 5 Designers in a contest, not the first 5 designs.
~~ When "Top 5" ends, the "Judging" phase begins. The Designer of the 1st place design will be the only Designer who can submit revisions at that time.

I need to emphasize that we need to avoid looking too much like Starbucks. I really want the cookie to have a thick 3-d look so he really looks like a cookie. I like seeing him stepping out of a frame and like him to be in a forward leaning position. I would like to see some shapes other than a circle. Perhaps a vertical rectangle or a vertical oval (if that is possible). Also if the text or frame could have some dimensional look to it that would be nice. Drop shadows or thickness perhaps? Thanks
