Harvard GrownLogo Design Contest

https://www.dropbox.com/s/jgky7qyv2s0prwt/WESTON%20AHEAD%20Logo%20Style%20Guide.pdf?dl=0

Are you able to make us a style guide with these details?

Thank you, this is the winner!
Could we have the formats sent to us in AI, EPS, PDF, SVG, PNG
And also a version with no white background (transparent)?
We also would like to have a design guide with the basic colors and fonts used in this logo. We will provide an example.

I'm sorry, my bad, #271

Hi - can you please put the horse and goat back into the logo?

like this #270 ?

Meaning not have the tip hiding behind the banner. Placement is great!

Could you bring the bees wings to the front in this one? It's okay for them to be over the edge of the banner a little.

Ok,
here is the update #268 #269

We are almost there!

The changes in the produce scale are great! We have just a couple more requests on the animals in regards to size. We want to make sure that the animal size/scale are a little more relative to what they actually are.
- make the goat smaller. just a little smaller than the alpaca.
- the cow a little bigger
- the horse a little bigger
- bring the chickens a just a little closer together

As for the bees they really do look best on circle line like you've have them. I was trying to ask to see them shifted up a little closer to the corner. even if the wing goes over the bottom part of the banner that's fine as well.

another options (for the bees position) #266 #267

Thank You,
we have three versions right here #263 (with the original bee position)
#264 #265

The grey goat is fantastic! Thank you!

We wanted to have the cow stay where it was by the barn. And have the goat and the horse switch places (see note on #260)

The produce filling up the space on the bottom is great! Thank you! Could we make the apple a tiny bit bigger, and the peach just a little smaller and move the bees to the edges a little. I made some markups above.

It took so much time for me responding to your feedback/comment, the difference of the time zone is the only problem here, and thanks again for your patience.

Best Regards,
S

Sure, here is the new entry #262

Thanks,
S

And also switch the places of the goat and horse?

Hi again! Could you make the goat gray and make the fruits/produce take up the entire space below the "Harvard Grown" banner? So it fills up the tan space more.

Thank you for your patience navigating all this with us!

Love the bigger produce in this one - could we make it just a tiny bit bigger so it fills the bottom space a little more. We don't want it to cover the "Harvard Grown" banner but think by filling the open space a little more will emphasize the feeling of bounty.

Thank you so much for adding the goat and cow! For placement could we swap the horse and the goat? If in swapping you need to make the trees a little bigger to compensate for the size of the horse that's totally fine.

Could we also make the goat grey? What ever shade of grey you think compliments the design the best.

Thank you again for all your hard work on this - we have really enjoyed working with you on this logo!

update #260 (the produces are a little bit larger)
#261 (the original produce)

let me know your thoughts about this new animal placements.

Thanks,
S

There is no problem, as long as you are happy with the changes.

let me do the work now, and will be back in a few minutes.
I think there is one rooster already in the logo, but I'm not sure if it is the type of rooster that you are asking for.

Thank you. Apologies for all the changes.

Could we see a version with the bee boxes removed? Please add a cow and a goat and change one of the chickens to a rooster. I think it's important to not focus on one animal over another, please have the animals spread out. If needed we can have the produce take up more space in the front.

Like this #259 ?

Almost there - Could you make it so the horse's feet aren't touching the banner, and move the blossoms to the sides of the apple.

Hi, No problem, I'm really enjoy working on your contest.
Here is the version with the corn behind the strawberries/blueberries #258 (different placement/layout)

Here is the original version with the new flowers and apple #257

Thanks,
S

Thank you again for all your work. We are close here. Could you move the flowers out from under the bees? Perhaps next to the bees, but not overlapping. Can we also see a version with the corn behind the strawberries and blueberries? Also wondering if you can make the apple a little more round, like a McIntosh apple, but not as round as the tomato.

Here is the new entry #256
I made a little bit adjustment for the produces,
they are a little bit larger, and the placement has been changed, let me know your thoughts.

Thank You for your feedback, and patience.

Best Regards,
S

Hi, I'm back.
Sure, I'll be back with the new entry,

Thanks,
S

Also, it would be great if you could move the pair of blossoms to be where the bees are?

Thank you for all of your work on this.
Some feedback:
Could you make sure the font on the outer circle is even on both sides?
The leaves near the blueberries still look like grape leaves. Could we remove those and the orange, and spread the fruit out a little more? We are worried it's getting too crowded.

Thank you so much for all your work. We are had a meeting this morning and went over things and have a list below.
"harvard grown" banner thickness and placement here in #253 is the best. Could we make the outer black circle a tiny bit thinner? We still want it to have a stronger presence than the inner circle though.

Could you make an adjustment to the phrase on the outer band to be:

LOCAL PRODUCTS • FROM OUR FAMILIES TO YOURS

We are also wondering if a small black apple instead of a • would look nice.

We would like to have only these items for produce:

apple
peach
blueberry (only 5-6 berries)
tomato
carrot
ear of corn
head of lettuce
honey jar
pair of blossoms
bees (flanked on the sides)

In your submission #195 you have the produce over the bottom circle, and the bees were placed really nicely. We would like to see that.

Thank you again!

Sure,
Here is the update #254 #255

The orange fruit between strawberries is the peach.
I did a little bit adjustment on it.

In some of your previous versions the produce was over the bottom circle - we would love to see it back like that again.

Thank you!

Could we see the produce a little bigger in this version that you made the banner higher?

Could we change the red pepper to be a yellow pepper? Just trying to break up the heavy reds in the middle a little.

Also trying to figure out what the large orange fruit between the strawberries and bee is supposed to be?

Thank you!

Hi, Thank You for your patience,
here is the new entry #251 (with the banner much higher)
#252 (the banner a little bit higher)
#253 (the banner less thicker than the original, pretty much the same layout as the original)

Ok, I'm working on it now

Also wouldn't mind if the "harvard grown" banner was moved up a tiny bit higher to allow more space for the produce/bees. The sunset is beautiful, but we could shift things a little and still have everything in the top portion not affected.

Thank you for being so responsive.

Could we see the horizon hill where the sun sets be a tiny bit higher? Maybe just below where the barn roof starts. If it makes sense to scale down the horse a tiny bit to help achieve this that works too.

In regards to the produce on the bottom, we love how colorful it is. I made a couple of marks on the ones we could take away. We would like to see an ear of corn and a peach added. and if we could make the blueberries look a little less grape like that would be great. If you wanted to add some other berries that would represent what we grow you could add strawberries and raspberries.

Sure, here is the new entry #249 .

and a little bit refinement on the banner/ribbon outline #250 ,
let me know your thoughts.

Thanks,
S

yes! This is great! the client would also like to see different bee boxes, could you keep them white, but try something like this? https://images.app.goo.gl/yUae8EQP4WRoDMvd9

also, they are thinking they want to see less sky- could you try to expand the thickness of the outer circle a bit so that the tag line is more legible? Finally, can we had a rolled up hay bale to the right of the barn in place of that shrub? Thank you!

Like this #248 ?

can you please remove the ribbon falling outside the overall circle? We just want everything within the larger circle

Thank You, I'm very happy to have part on your contest.
here is my new entry #242 #243

Hi we are still very much leaning toward this being the winning design. We would like to see this as a fully enclosed logo (i.e. nothing outside the circle) and could you replace the grapes with blueberries? Thank you!

Updates #237

Hello, I'm back, and will working on it now.

Thank You for your feedback and patience.
S

Could you make the alpaca more of a "generic" animal by removing the detail in the face. Can you make the tag line at the top bolder so it shows a bit more? Is there a different treatment for the windows on the barn you can show us? Thank you for the efforts.

Is it possible to lighten the black detailing on the fields, trees and the produce? In the fields/trees you could use a different green to show the detail vs. the black there now.

We are trying to consider our applications for the logo. We love your design, but want to make sure the extra definition detailing of the lines will transfer well in all applications, not just print. Thank you!

This is great! Thanks!

Sure, Here is the new entry #217

We would love to see the alpaca no be so front and center - as we only have one farm with alpacas at the moment. We do however have lots of horse farms. Could we make the horse more noticeable - lighter color and a little bigger?

Hi, We have three concepts here #193 #194 #195
let me know your thoughts.

Thanks,
Best Regards,
S

Sure, I'm working on it now.

Thank You, here is the update for this entry #192

Thank you. We like the Harvard grown banner without the scroll on the side more. We would also like to see some placement changes of some of the top elements. Could you move the orchard trees to the left side with the bee boxes, and move the barn and animals to the right side? Could we add a chicken or two?

Thank you! We like this banner a lot - could we see it in white?

Updates,
#103 #104 #105 #106
two font and banner options.

We also have added new vegetables.

If there is any other changes that you would like to see, feel free to let me know.

Thanks,
S

Hi, I’m back,
Thank You for your feedback , I’m working on the revision now and will posted as soon as possible

Best Regards,
S

we really like this design. Can you please update the font (as noted above) and update the name to Harvard grown. Please then remove the Harvard below and fill up (make larger) the various fruit and vegetables and bees! Thanks!

can we please see this with a more modern font?

This is a really interesting logo. Could we try to change up the font and the banner to maybe make it feel a bit more modern?
