Open Government Institute of CaliforniaLogo Design Contest

This logo represents the image of the california state capitol through the roof opens like opening the cover of a dish. The meaning is that the process of government (which represent by the building) can be clearly known (enjoyed) by people

This concept is interesting, but not very unique. It has been used many times... often in campaign commercials during elections. #37

in my opinion, the logo must represent "california", it can be represented by flag, or any icon that can make people know this logo is related to "california" tha's why i choose to use california state capitol as the main icon in this logo. and i think with this logo people will easy to remenbered. i just add one variation off the logo, that the top of the building less opened.

Thanks for your feedback, i'm still working on it

Thx for your review, i am still working on it :)

refer to #71

To CH
first of all, "open" concept represented by opened top of roof, like opening a dish is my idea, i post it by #35 (but it still to stiff.). i saw someone used this concept (and he got a rank) :'( . i just combining my concept with another concept that make you interest, the meaning of bird hold an envelope is an open access to government information (represented by a free flying bird from the building holding an envelope).

hope you like it, please give it your feedback :)

#71 and #71... icon is clever, but I am not a fan of the font used for the logo text. It doesn't convey "openness" .
The birds coming out of the capitol dome is very interesting. You have taken an old concept and made it much more current.

Thank You for your feed back, glad finally i got ranked :)
yeah you right, the font is seem too conservative. I just post 4 new variations using a different font please check entry #76, #77, #78, #79, i am waiting for your next feedback..

Thx :)

refer to entry #80 , #81

i am trying a new idea to represent "openness", I am using the image of an open eye, watching the capitol building (government process). it can means like "government supervisory institute". :)
hope you like it, please give it your feedback
thx :)

refer to entry #209 #210 , "the strong room is now opened"

#212 #213 , "the government process is now fresh and ready to taste by people"

#211 , the big O (circle with a big hole) represent an openness, with the capitol inside it means government openness.. :)

#221 "bushes that are open" shaped like "V" for victory, means now government process (capitol) can be seen clearly after the bushes opened.. wish you like it :)

#222 "a curved rail" means now information about government process not "jailed" anymore, it's free, and anyone can access it.. hope you got the idea, and like it :)

#233 #234 , "an opened manacle", means that a free access to government process and information wish you like it. :)
