side-view with the chair as an "h".

#3 is the best so far. We are definitely looking for all white background. try the font as all lowercase with some black.

Thanks!

I drew my chair kinda loose - just to give it some energy, but I've noticed that you're ranking the more precise silhouettes...should I take that approach?

#64 and #65 are very well done. I like the chair. Perhaps you can move the chair just a bit closer to the words on #65?

Can you play with the chair casting a slight shadow. That might work best on #64...?

Oh, yeah, one more thing. Try oldredchair.com

#65, perhaps try flipping the chair so it faces the words.

Here are a couple revisions based on feedback. I really like the shadow addition - that was a great idea! I added ".com" to both, but with different layouts. Thanks for the feedback!

Try #64 again but with only the shadow, not the .com

Awesome job!

thought I'd try another chair - a typical Stickley. I think of Gustav Stickley as a spokesperson for American furniture...so I thought his work might be a good fit. I have a couple reproductions, but I'd love to have an actual stickley set (I'd REALLY love an Eames Chair w/ ottoman!...that probably would't work for this contest, though :) )

Craftsmen furniture really runs hot and cold on the market though. If you have an original stickley it could be worth big bucks. I asked a few of the other designers to also look for Chippendale chairs with ball & claw feet or a Queen Anne side chair with spade feet. I think the people we target with the site will know a real antique from something that was made in the 4o's or 50's.

I moved your re-do of #64 (now with shadow) #72 to the number one spot. However, like you did for #68, can you reverse the way the chair is pointing.

I think if the contest ended today you'd have a winner and I'd like to use the #68 as well for some print ads. But it ain't over til the fat lady sings and you never know!

Thanks

here's the revised.
I just LOVE mission style. We were looking for a craftsman home when we bought our house, but there just aren't that many in this area.

Josh, #159 IS definitely something I want to see a few ideas worked with. I think a better crest than the one you have might work. See if you can throw a few ideas in that same theme at me. I like it.

Thanks
