HopeAlightLogo Design Contest

Thank you, Pink!! I just got in from skiing. First time taking our boys (ages 5, 7, 7, 10)...what a fun - and completely exhausting - day. I am going to take a look and make a decision shortly. Thank you SO SO much!

Hello :)
Skiing with family sounds great, hope you had a lot fo fun!

Here's the version with the darker yellow, #285.
If you're happy with that version and you want to finalise the contest please read this:
https://logotournament.com/help/client/87

The final files you're going to download will be in eps & jpg format but since I'll have your email from the contract I will send you directly a full logo package that will have your logo in many different formats, like ai, svg, png, pdf etc.

Thank you!
Pink

Good morning, Pink! Ok, I think this is the last thing I want to check. Can you send me this same design but with a little bit darker yellow...more like #279? This is the grey I like the best...I just want to make sure it is the right yellow with that grey. I am skiing with my family (Spring Break) on Monday, so I may not see your revision right away. I am excited to see what the next step is once we finalize everything. So excited that you will get this prize money. You for sure deserve it!! Thank you again for everything. You made this process so fun!

Yes I do!

Thank you! It is hard work, but it is also so good. I know you understand!

Thank you :) I respect what you're doing, helping children & adults, that's why I am enjoying participating to your contest.
Regarding the grey versions, this one #281 I think is the best.

You've been so fun to work with in this process. Appreciate you so much!

They are all so pretty! Thank you so much. Do you have a preference in grey?

You're welcome :)

Thank you so much!!

Here you go, #280, #281, #282.
I made yellow slightly softer and used three different shades of grey.

Yes of course :)

Maybe a softer yellow, as well. :) Thank you!

May I please see ALIGHT in a grey color? Maybe show me 2-3 options of grey. Thank you!!

Wonderful, thank you!

I love it, Pink!! Thank you so so much.

Good morning from sunny Athens :)
I made a new version with the small lamp post, #279.
In order to have a better preview I've enlarged my draft.

Let me know your thoughts.

Thank you!
Pink

Thank you! Sleep well.

That’s better, thank you!
Tomorrow morning you’ll get them :)

Here is another idea similar: https://www.deviantart.com/xelawebdev/art/Wooden-lamp-post-408296653

http://www.woodlightpoles.com/photos.html

Third from the bottom on the left side.

Haha! Ok...let me see.

...because it's about a dishwasher, I can't find the wooden lamppost.

Yes sure.
Can you recheck the link that you sent me, something looks wrong...

Ok, one new idea, and it might be too much. What if we made the right part of the "T" like a wooden lamppost (See: http://afiztechno.me/blog/remodeling-your-kitchen-should-you-get-a-dishwasher/). It would just need a line to connect the top of the T to the vertical line of the T...and a tiny lamp/light. Like i said, it might be too much, but I would love to see if it you aren't too busy. Thank you, Pink!

Perfect, I am glad you like it :D

Ohh...I like this, too! How in the world to choose... :)

I do like the spark style!

I prefer 257 thanks!!

I prefer 257...thanks!!

Yes! Just like this. Thank you!!

#257, #258 options have a small yellow tip at the edge of the letter T.
Let me know which versions you prefer.
Thank you!

Hope you've enjoyed your lunch!

In #255, #256 I placed a tiny yellow sparkle at the right top & at the bottom of letter T.
Due to the low resolution of the draft you can't see the detail of the sparkle but it's subtle and cute and it's better than a plain circle.

Thanks for your kind words,
I’ll make the variations that you asked :)

Can you please do this exact one with a tiny yellow spark (smaller than in 228) on the top right of the T...and a second option on the bottom fo the T (both actually touching the letter).

The intervention that I teach is called Trust Based Relational Intervention...and I love the idea that my work was sparked by the "T" (TBRI)...no one would really notice it, but I would love it for me.

Maybe it is a circle shape...maybe it's just the font of the letter itself on that tip...or maybe it's a burst/sparks of some kind. Thank you again for your time! I will be away for a few hours for lunch with my family but will check in this afternoon! Thanks, Pink! You have been so much fun to work with throughout this process.

Pretty! Thank you.

These are both pretty! Thank you.

Please check #253, #254 variations.
In #254 letters HPE are in darker yellow.

No problem I’ll make such a version very shortly, thank you :)

I do think it's pretty! I prefer 196...but would love to see this one with the same radiating light as you did in 196 for the "O". If you have time, would you try that? Thank you!!

Good morning :)
I made the lamp post concept, #245.
It looks nice and right to the point, maybe less 'organic' than the tree concept yet visually beautiful.
Let me know your thoughts.

Thank you,
Pink

Thank you very much :)
Have a nice and creative day!

No worries! Enjoy your night. I would love to come to Greece someday. :) Thanks for all of your work today!

It’s not a bad idea and I’ll make a draft but tomorrow because I am not in my studio at the moment. Time difference is a barrier sometimes! Thanks for your understanding:)

Just had another thought, Pink. What if the tree was a lamp post? I like the simplicity of the tree...so I am imagining a simple lamp post (not digital looking). This idea may be awful, but seeing it will help me know. Thoughts? Again, thank you for all of your work!

You're welcome!
It's nice to explore different ways to improve a concept

I think I like the sparkle on top of the T like you designed it originally! Thank you.

Ok, this is exactly what I had in mind! I do like it...not sure if I like it better than #196, but I think it's really pretty. Thank you, Pink!

I agree it looks better without the navy line, #227.
I am working on the other versions that you mentioned

Ok, using this same design...can you just make the horizontal line yellow/gold and extend it beyond the T like it is in #196?

Hmm...I think it's too much with the navy line across. Can I see it with just the navy lines connecting to the gold line? Thank you!

Hmm...I think I like the larger sparkle on top of the T. What if you made the line that goes all the way across in yellow/gold like it was before...and just added yellow to the very tip of the "T" on the top right side?

This is the second version, #226.
What do you think?

Yes it does make sense, I'll try it!

Here's the version with the yellow sparkle at the right top of the T, #220

Then, as a second idea, can you do just as I stated but have a navy line going along the top of the yellow line to connect the "i" and "T"? Does that make sense??

Ok, if you look at #196, I like how the line is lower and is gold (though you might try yellow to see if that works better now that we are using yellow for HPE.

Can you just extend the "i" and "T" down to touch that yellow line? I would like to see that option (with the swirl/light on the T still). Thank you!!!

Ok, I am intrigued! That's wild...it does look like a child but is SUPER subtle. My original thought was having the "spark/light" on the top right of the "T"...not on top. I am glad you did it this way so I could see your idea! Would you try to how me what it would look like on the top right of the "T" just for comparison? I'm going to leave a comment on 209 about another idea.

I don't know if you had something like #209, #210, in mind...
Also, does the T with the sparkle looks to you like a child or my imagination is running wild?

Interesting, I'll try it!

Ok, so this may not work at all but I had a thought. What if you had a tiny yellow dot/swirl/spark on the T in Alight...and you connected the base of the "t" to the line below...and connected the 'i" to the line below as well...almost like showing how a spark/light traveled from the T into the bigger illuminated area?? Does that make sense? It may look bad, but I would love to see it.

Okay I am looking forward!

It's bright and pretty! I think I prefer 196. I had another idea and will share it on 196.

Done! #199

I think this one is my new favorite!!

Great, for now I'll change one just to see how it looks

I'm thinking the same thing! Yes, why not? It's fun to compare, and I love your ideas.

Maybe I'll slightly modify the dark blue into something more aqua just to compare. Do you agree?

Difficult choice!
I think I like more the yellow versions because they look more fresh, like they're glowing!

I love them!! Thank you so much!

Wow! They are all so pretty. Truly. I love them. Which is your preference? I'm going to go to the page with all of your designs for me and see them side by side to see if how I feel. Thank you!!

Here you go #195, #196, #197.
I've slightly darken the yellow letters in order to be more legible but you won't notice the difference because it's very subtle.

I don’t mind at all!
New drafts are coming soon!

Oh my! They are all so pretty. I don't know how to rank them. I wonder what the HPE would look like in the same yellow?? Do you mind sending me that option with all three new designs??

Please check #191, #192, #193 in which I added a splash of yellow and let me know if you like any of them.
Thank you :)

Yes of course I'll add a bit of yellow asap

Hi Pink! Could you please show me what this would look like if you added a bit of yellow to the swirl??

Hello!
No problem, it's better to keep the ones that you prefer.
I am at your disposal for any modifications you may want.
Thank you :)

Moving this one over now that I have so many of yours that I love more! Thanks again, Pink.

Pink, this is beautiful! You have worked so hard today. Hope you get a good night's sleep!! Thanks for everything.

It looks much better like that, #120.

Soon I'll leave my studio because it's night here in Athens.
Please leave your comments and I'll respond tomorrow morning.

Have a nice rest of the day!
Thank you,
Pink

I thank YOU for the all the help!

Wow...that's really, really pretty, too. Thank you so much!!

It sounds good, I'll try it!

Here's a version in which I've added the roots, #116.
What do you think?

I agree...I think it breaks up Alight too much. What if the stem is navy, but the circles for the seeds are outlined in yellow...white in the middle? and the little stems from the middle circle to the smaller circles are also navy?

Here you go but I don't think it works well... #115

Yes it was a nice touch, thanks for the idea!

So pretty! My goodness, I love that. Thank you!! The swirls are perfect.

No problem I can make a new version in order to compare :)

Great thank you!
I just uploaded another new version #114

I love the blue script at the bottom! I think the dandelion needs to stay white inside rather than yellow. If we make the "i" yellow, do you think it will be too hard to read? Curious to see what that would look like! Thank you so much!

So pretty, Pink! I really love it. Thank you so much!

Yes, it does make sense.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts :)

I am glad you like it!
Very shortly I'll upload a new version.
Thank you :)

It's really sweet, though I don't think a butterfly is right for me. Any other ideas are appreciated!

This is super cute!! I would love to see roots incorporated. For so many hurting kids, their roots have harmed by people, so the tree doesn't grow as it should...but we can truly help their roots heal so that the leaves on their tree can grow beautifully!

Super cute! I really like the idea. What if the O was kind of like taking paint brush and swirling around? Maybe more than just yellow? What if the "I" had a longer tail under it and somehow connected to the "O"? I so appreciate your work!

So pretty! What if you made the dandelion seeds the yellow color? Could you try Alight and/or the tagline in a lighter blue to pull one more color? Thank you for your work!

I love it!! Thank you so much. Could you please show me what Spark Hope Ignite Change looks like in a lighter blue color (see 3rd picture shared in brief)? A script font?

A different version of the tree concept, #103

Butterfly concept #100 to communicate transformation.

Tree concept #96!

Please check #90, #91 revisions in two colors.

Love that idea!! Can't wait to see it.

Thank you!

Thank you!

Can't wait to see it!

Yes there is, I imagine a tree made of the O & I!

I love the simplicity of this one. Thank you!

It's so pretty! I think I prefer the dandelion and wheat options to this. Can you think of any other ideas for "O" in "hope"? I'm wondering if there is a way to connect the "o" to the "i" somehow??

Thank you!

Yes, sure!
I would also try to add the blue color in one of the words.

Thank you for creating this! I would love to see a "tree icon" as well. I prefer #78. You're awesome!

Great, I'll retain the same font and I'll try to find some new images for the "i".
Thank you for the feedback :)

I love the longer tail on this wheat graphic! Can you try adding a few grains blowing in the wind? Thanks, Pink!

No problem, I'll explore some new ideas, thank you!

Is there another graphic you could use above the "i" than a flame? I like the font very much! I love how "spark hope ignite change" is between the p and g. Please send any other ideas you have! I added a new image to my brief with a color combination that I like. I appreciate your work!

I think I prefer the dandelion concept! Thank you for trying this one. Please send any other ideas you have! I added a new image to my brief with a color combination that I like. I appreciate your work!

#86, #87 new concepts with a burning flame.

Here are some new versions with a wheat instead of a dandelion, #78, #79.
If you're interested I could also try a tree icon.

Maybe I can use the wheat idea here as well, like a field with wheats.
I'll see how I'll build more on this direction.
Thank you!

Yes of course I can this modification since the wheat icon is significant for you.
Thank you for the feedback!

I love the simplicity...just prefer some of your others! Thank you!

Thank you for creating this! I like the long tail on the "t"...can you think of other ideas/concepts that would work instead of the sun? I think it's really pretty...just am not sure that is exactly what I want. Thank you for your effort!

Thank you, Pink, for creating 5 designs for me! I love your descriptions in your email. This is my favorite. I love dandelions, and I love the visual of children blowing on them making wishes. I know I did that growing up. My logo before renaming my business used "wheat" for a graphic, and the tagline was "Fields of Compassion." That is still an important concept to me. I wonder if you would be willing to show me another option where instead of the dandelion, you used a grain of wheat instead. Thank you for your time!
