Lauren's feedback:
I like this VERY MUCH!!
This I think is the direction we want. But, I would like to see the colors MUCH more saturated.
Can you try with bright cyans, and royal blues, bright blues, vibrant blues??!

Also, I'd like to see the words "yoga Shala" less bold. and in black.
We really like the fonts of #41 #51 #68 and #56
Please, show us more!!

Lauren's feedback:
#77 I don't like the greenish orange color
#78 I love it!! I still think we want brighter, can you saturate the blues more? Of course it is not only my decision. Brian will give his feedback too... keep going, show us more :) Do you have other concepts??

This logo speaks to transformation, it is Dynamic, young, fresh, modern, more masculine, reminds me of evolution and power. Great job!

Lauren's feedback:
#81 I like it, I like how it is getting brighter, but I prefer less shading and more two-tone or 3 tone. Can we see how it would look in just bright cyan and cobalt blue?

web colors:
#5c29e6
#28e6f0
#05b6fc
Something in that neighborhood. Brian is teaching Yoga right now, so I am still waiting on his feedback. I hope he likes these as much as I do :)

Lauren's feedback:
I guess the color I gave you was more purple than I thought.. it looks too purple next to the other blue, can you make it more blue? more bright?

Brian's Feedback:

Unfortunately Lauren like's this one much more than I do. While i do really like the concept... It's not doing it for me as of yet. I don't find it super clean. I'd like to see it more refined, and possibly a little bit more 3D... I find it busier than it should be for the concept. I think part of the issue i'm having is with the density/thickness of the outer rings... The inner part get's too squished in. Try thinning it out a little and giving the central part more depth (if possible).

My other slight concern is that it resembles waves/ocean too much, especially with the blues. I think surf before I think Yoga with this one. I'm really hoping to create something that really speak to who we are and what we do. As much as I want something that looks great its effectiveness at attracting people is what really counts. People have to look at it and excited to check us out.

Keep at it, you're doing some of the best work we've seen!

more comments by Brian:

I know Lauren really likes this one, I keep coming back to it to see how we could make it work. Would it be possible to use this concept creating an spiral/tunnel effect - using the inner pattern to essential wrap around creating a tunnel.. I think it would have a very cool, inviting, pulling in effect. As much as I love the colours I still find it's too ocean/wave like. Either the design or colour scheme would need to be changed slightly to move it away from that theme.

Thanks again,
B.

Thank you for the excellent feedback!
I apologize for the slow response because of the time difference(time zones).
I will try to do as you have requested, and I hope we can find the best solution for you...

#106 is great!! I feel it is so close to what we want, we'll have to wait on Brian's feedback too of course. I'm not thrilled with the circles in the middle (it kind of reminds me of butterfly wings) but the shape is really good. I like #107 too but it is too purple and a little bit too Greek pottery looking.
Keep it up though, your logos are amazing.
My first choice is still #78. I think that one is awesome!

Lauren's feedback
#106 #125
I like this direction- I still think the polka dots in the center have to go. I showed it to a yoga student today and she said it looked too much like orange slices...
It is good, but not there yet!

I think #122 won't look good on Tshirts or water bottles and is a bit messy.
#107 is a good start, but too curly and too girly.
Keep going though, I love your work!

Brian's Comments:
#125 #131 #106 - I find all three of these look like citrus fruits. They don't do it for me at all. The mandala approach unfortunately isnt working. We're not getting what I was hoping could work as a concept. None of them are speaking to what we are and are just a random generic symbol. I'm going to have to suggest to step away from this concept for now and work on refining concepts including a figure or sequence of figures - handstands work... they should be dynamic and strong- bordering on abstract - the figures we've been seeing so far have been way to wavy and curved. Please concentrate your efforts on those concepts for now. It's unlikely I'll be going for one of the other designs, unless something significant changes.

Thanks for all the hard work!

Here's a concept that I like - I don't like the figure, or the idea of someone in lotus. Otherwise i think it works quite nicely. I'd love to see it inspire something that speaks to us. Perhaps something a little bit more modern, dynamic or vivid.

Anything you can do with it?

#78 is still my favorite! I really don't want a person, I don't love that idea... Brian and I are going to need to compromise on this... I do agree with him that the other ones look like fruit, but you did clearly draw it from the inspiration we gave you.

I'm looking forward to seeing more. Thank you Goran!

Lauren's comments
#145 is way too busy for me! I don't like it at all
#144 is interesting, but I don't care for the extra swoosh, I find it a bit messy...

Good work though. You are great Goran!

I agree with Lauren's comments. I find #145 too busy also, and i also find them a little too feminine. Kind of looks like a cross between a flower and butterfly. Concept wise its in a better direction to what we're looking for. Try and make it a bit more masculine, strong, bold, dynamic, cool, modern.

Thanks!

Lauren's feedback:
I like the eye and tornado effect of this. I like the colors too, the dots aren't working for me though. Do you think you can somehow incorporate a human like figure into this design? Similar to the others in the top 5?

Hi,
These are not really what I had in mind...

Maybe use #243 #246 and #248 as inspiration... we really like those figures.
