#59: I really like this one!! Could you modify the H in the icon, so the factory pipe doesnt tilt out? As it is now, it may be associated with a nuclear power plant...
It is cool to see your different designs, the new #60, #61, #62 and #63. However we feel that the design of #58 to #60 are the most promising.
We like the simplisity and the clean look of #59. We just feel that the chimney of #59 should be slightly adjusted, to avoid the associaton of a nuclear plant. The chimney of #60 is therefore better. But we dont believe we want more complex details, like in #60.
Could you give the design of #59 more of the straight chimney of #60? Understand what I mean?
I apologise for making them more details. let's just say that design is an additional options of an existing design, and now I submit the same design with minimal changes. let me know for required adjusments.
#105 is cool! Please dont worry too much about the current ranking. The top 5 ranked designs are all very good logos. We are currently fighting hard in the group of 4 at Heltefabrikken...
Both #74 and #105 are great. It might be easier to see the H at #74? The font of #105 is nice.
Could we go back to #42? Could you make a little bit more simple version of this design? Could you try to: Remove the factory roof and the pipe at the top of the logo. Just keep the "wheel". Is there anything we can do to make it more obvious a "factory gear wheel"? Make the H inside the wheel more obviously an H. This H could become an excellent "stand alone" design element at web pages and so on.
I liked the simplicity of the #74 and also #77 for smart playing in negative space of H, and a modern sense of #116, but according to the field of my expertize of branding, is easier to make numbers of design of #74 and #77 in a pillar in the construction of brand image of your business because of flexibility to deliver something, but somehow don't know what kind of business concept that you want to run, so it can provide more specific design direction.
but guessing from all the briefings you gave, I think that you should have a logo with one dominant color (black, maroon, dark green, royal blue, etc), memorable and timeless, other feelings in the logo can be added later as needed.
