RH AdhesivesLogo Design Contest

Hi Mike!,
How are you? I hope all is well.

thank you very much for writing. it has been a pleasure to participate in your contest. I couldn't win, but the important thing is that the client is happy with their work, and they get a great logo.

I also appreciate the possibility of working in the future.

May you be very successful in your projects.

Sincerely. Daniel

Hi Dapc79. You made a FANTASTIC effort here. I really like how you did the right glue and since 1949 around the edge. Unfortunately, we have some small cans and the logos are not very readable when we tried them there. Your version without the tagline is AWESOME, but we are going to go with Modern Design as that version without the tagline worked slightly better. Thank you again for your efforts. My name is Mike and my email is marketing@rhadhesives.com. Would welcome the chance to work with you in the future.

Thank you very much for your comments.
Here new changes for review please #1096 #1097 #1098 #1099 #1100 #1101 #1102 #1103

Also in black and white?

Can we see this in maroon instead of grey?

Can we see this in a slightly less brown colored red? Also, the R font looks thinner than the H font. Can you make them the same?

Ok, #1022 has a screw cap
#1019 has a smooth top

Hi Daniel - I can't tell the difference between 1019 through 1022. What is different between them?

Can you also use the other can with the lines going up and down?

The can for #953 looks bigger. I think I'd like that more.

But there would still be space between the RH and Adhesives?

Thanks Daniel. Can we see this one where the can doesn't look totally chopped in half? Maybe a small line for the bottom?

Hello, here are the new presentations with the required changes #1009 #1010 #1011.

Regards. Daniel

Can we also see it with the white below the can? See markup.

I like this. Can we try with the right glue and since 1949 as well like you have in some of the others?

Thanks for the feedback. They help a lot.

A few new color combinations for your review #958 #959 #960 #961 #962 #963 #964 #965.

Regards. Daniel

One random comment. Don’t worry about how your logos are ranked both within your own logos and compared to everyone else.

For the color changes, can we do a maroon and blue for sure like our existing colors?

Can we try some other color combos for a few of these styles? Good work!

new changes #952 #953

Cool. Can we see without 1949? Thanks!

Finalists - we are sending this note to everyone. First off, congratulations! There were 900+ entries from over 50 artists. Your work stood out from a very competitive field. A few notes on why we liked each of you and what we are looking for in the final.
1. Don't pay attention to rank! We just sorted by designer. You all have a chance to win.
2. We changed our slogan to "The right glue" and took out "for the job".
3. We need the logo to work in black and white, so please show versions of that.
4. For design and website purposes, we think a circular or near circular logo may be where we end up. Doing so will also mean that it won't be a huge departure from the current logo.
5. Our website, www.rhadhesives.com is a mess. We recently bought the business and are looking to upgrade it. That said, our cans for HH-66, S-18 etc. have solid industry recognition that we don't want to change much. The logo needs to fit in here.
6. The logo needs to work both with and without the tagline.
7. Two words that describe our brand our "specialized" and "proven". That could be why round logos work well since they are seals of approval.
8. Timeless logos are good too since legacy is a big part of the brand.
9. Simple logos without too much to interpret are good too since we are direct.

Here are some comments on each of the designers.
1. Graphica - Probably the most modern - which we are debating how modern we want it to be. Very clever way to make RH into a can while keeping the block font like HH-66 and S-18 products. Concern is this may be "too clever" and not necessarily timeless.
2. Dapc79 - Yours is a blend of modern and timeless. How would this look without the tagline and since 1949? Can you incorporate some of other people's thinking to evolve the design a little?
3. Calinico - Homerun for making the logo timeless/1950s. Can you incorporate some of other people's thinking to evolve the design a little? We also need to change the tagline to "the right glue" and see options with/without the tagline.
4. Modern Design - Very versatile designs with a wide array of ideas. We are looking for you to take this feedback above and see how you can incorporate this with other design ideas.
5. Amanterkendali - Yours are more vintage, but not quite as much as calinico. Like modern design, we are looking for you to take this feedback above and see how you can incorporate this with some other design ideas.
I will remain active reviewing everyone's ideas. Good luck! Keep up the great work!

here it is with the version "since 1949"

Can you change to "since 1949" as well?

Good work. Can we also see this in simpler format without a tagline and 1949?

Thanks for changes. Can you do connection like on markup? Not sure it will work?

I marked up the can

Can we see it with the full connection too?

Nice. Can we see this change on the other can logo, too?

W/B version

B/W version

Can we also see a black and white?

new change #790

Really good work. We may shorten tagline to just "the right glue". As such, on the bottom can you have "since 1949" instead of "for the job"?

Hi!

Please review the changes made #782 #783 #784 #785. I hope I understood correctly. Anyway, any other comment or suggestion, please let me know. It will be a pleasure.

Can here too?

Can you switch placement of Adhesives and "the right glue..."?

Can you make this a glue can where I marked up?
