NECEC InstituteLogo Design Contest

#10, #11 in the not interested box because the font really needs to be consistent with current NECEC logo.

#1-#4 stray too far from the original design language. We need people to look at the logo and think "associated with New England Clean Energy Council". By turning the 3 bars on their side you've stepped too far away. Recommend keeping those three bars in like they appear in the NECEC logo, but feel free to add new elements, and/or play with colors, etc.

22. 23 make me think of skipso's logo, not NECEC.

41,42,43,48,49,50. This is interesting - I like how you've brought trees into the bars. Not so fond of the power line in 43. I've got a bunch of people reviewing designs and not sure there will be an appetite to modify the shape of the bars (because of NECEC) but i appreciate the out of the box concept while holding true to the original. Will be incorporating other's feedback shortly.

Hi Andrew

Thanks for your feedback, i know it.. (bunch of people reviewing designs)
ill be ready for everything.. if you need any help, just let me know..

Regards

49 has no "institute". NECEC is a different organization.

can you try versions of 5 and 7 with a font that uses the same font for NECEC as 39?

Updated!
#55 #56 #57 #58
thanks

would you mind trying a version of 56 with the bars in blue or green or blue and green etc?

Updated
#62 #63 #64 #65 #66

Thanks

Thanks. Possible to try 66 connecting the first leg of the n to the i in institute making it a long i (maybe putting a dot above?) I'm not describing it well, but hoping you understand.

Jessica,

The team likes 107, but we'd like to see a few modifications.

Please take another look at the current existing logo for the New England Clean Energy Foundation (posted on the contest). We'd like to see a version of 107 that....
1. treats the bars exactly the same way. (rounder tops and bottoms and fades from dark on the bottom to lighter on the top), and;
2. the necec color be made grey (like new england is in the current logo). Fading the grey into the green where the stem of the n meets the i of institute, and;
3. more closely match the green with the existing green in the current logo, and;
4. slightly modify the font (the c's in the current logo are a tiny bit narrower and the e's are slightly different also)

we will try to get the current font over to you and the current color type to you in the next hour or so, but if you can attempt a few changes before then, we would appreciate it.

OK.. will work on it

thanks

also, can you please remove the TM from whatever versions you do going forward. thanks.

hi andrew
its updated now!
please check #139 #140 #141

Thanks

Jesica,
Thanks for your patience!

141 is very close.

1. we can't find the original font name. but please look at the "e" in yours vs. the original. the stem of the e in the original extends further than what you've showed - if that can be tweaked, it would be great.

2. can you make the transition from grey to green more gradual where n meets i?

3. finally, can you try a few different greens for the word "institute"?

hex1: 72ac1c
hex2: 8d9719
hex3: 056839
hex4: 75b140

Thanks. We're almost there. You are the winner, we're just tweaking at this point.

we also have a request to see 142 in the different greens...

Also a version of 141 with the green and grey inverted? (NECEC in green, institute in grey).

Sorry, lots of people weighing in over here.

jesica,

if it helps, the variations of green can be found here.

thanks,

everything ok?

everything is perfect.. im just far away from my PC.. yesterday im only use my smartphone, so i cannot doing anything.. but it will be finished at this afternoon..

thanks

hi andrew..
its updated now..!!
i have some problems here.. from the contest started, i cant found the the font of NECEC.. so i decided to create the custom font.. but the nearest font is "antipasto" but it still needs a modification. better if you ask your last designer, what font is it..?

thanks

on the Font, we have the same issue! None of the people currently working here were around when the original logo was developed, so we don't know the original font. (We've been looking). What you've done is close enough I think.

jesica,

the power is still out here, but i was able to find a wifi hotspot.

I was able to track it down, apparently the font is called "T-26 -- DEFUSED-REGULAR" ever heard of it? http://www.t26.com/fonts/817-Defused Let me know if you have a copy already, or if we can enable this.

I will click "winner" today, but would love a few different versions of the logo (small, medium, large, each with and without a white background - the "without" would only be the bars and text and any image we place it on would show through the gaps.) i'm not sure how the competition software works, but I assume this is possible?

Best, Andrew.
