Hi Trichwine, yay!!! Thanks I appreciate you choosing my logo, really glad I could help you out in this process. Sure thing give me a while to prepare the files and upload them to the site. On the logos you mention you put 282 twice. Let me know. Cheers, Santi
Thank you for the logo and for all of the adjustments. I will be selecting you as the winner shortly. Since this is the first time I'm doing this I am unsure of how the process goes. As such I would like to outline my desires here:
I would like copies of the files for this one, as well as #281, #282, and #282. I would like color copies as well as black and white. Lastly, if you would be so kind, I would appreciate files for just the R and roots in both gold and black.
Just uploaded 3 options, solid color, 2 color gradient and 3 color gradient so you can see which you like the best ; ). If anything else just let me know. Thanks.
Thank you. This is the best one so far. The underlined C was fun but I think I lean toward having it like you do here.
Another thing I'd like to see as an option: I like the kind of multi-color fade look going on with the R and the roots, but would like to see what it would look like if that was only in the R/bottle/roots part, and then all of the words were a more solid color, like the color that Richwine currently is. Or at least the words have a much more subtle fade so it doesn't look like WHERE ROOTS and ARE FORMED are different colors, and the variability of tint in Vineyards isn't so severe.
Thank you for this. Haven't decided on the c yet. I sent a survey and some of my family/friends love it and some don't. So still thinking about it.
Regarding the centering, I appreciate the attempt, but it somehow looks less right and I can't quite pin how. I think it's tough to do in this arrangement, and much easier to do in the circle arrangement you had prior. I like this shape way better, but I do like how the R and roots were centered in the circle.
This logo, or the one immediately prior may ultimately be the winner, but can you take a try at rearranging and giving the R its own space, like it had in the circle, so that both the R and the business name can be centered?
Hi Trich, how are you? Really glad you like hows its turning out ; ). On the lettering for the C, its a commonly used resource in steampunk fonts and in this case the C generated a negative space which I think unbalanced it a bit, let me know if you'd like I can change it out. I have just uploaded a new version with everything more centered, the wine bottle is a tad to the left but just a bit, but centered the rest of the elements, had to change out a bit the roots. Let me know what you think, if you'd like to see any changes to it. Thanks for the feedback. Cheers, Santi.
Not sure if I said it yet, but I think this is the winner. There are a couple of things I would like to discuss, but this feels very well done and like it captures what I'm looking for. I had an idea in my head of what I wanted, and this wasn't it, but the R/wine bottle with roots was a great idea, as is the tagline.
The two things I would like to comment on now are 1) Why did you underline the c in Richwine? Is it just a design element or is it a nod to something? 2) Is there a way to re-format it so that the R is centered in the logo? Right now it is a little to the left of center. Maybe Richwine could be bigger than Vineyards? (that might be a bad suggestion, idk). However it's accomplished, I think it's important that the R is centered in the logo.
This is looking really good, thank you. I like the purple choice better, and the font is great.
My current commentary is just around the gold choice. I'd appreciate it if you tried a more metallic, gold leafing look, rather than the softer beige gold you currently have, at least to see what it looks like. It can be in this same format, or you could try making different elements of the logo the gold leafing color.
Hello, thank you for your submissions! I appreciate you taking my notes and applying them. I like this submission the best.
Here are my notes as I see them currently: My favorite thing about the logo is obviously the creativity and thoughtful nature of the wine bottle R turning into the roots. The R itself is also a good choice. I don't like many of the other R options that have been submitted. I'm not sure yet whether it's exactly right, but if it isn't, it is at least on the right track. The font of Richwine Vineyards doesn't feel quite right though. I want the R that is elsewhere (in this case connected to the bottle) to match the font of the R in Richwine, like it currently is, but the font needs to either be modern/classy or steampunky, or somehow both. Maybe the font is somehow modern/steampunky while the Rs are fancy? Not sure, that's for you to play around with. Hopefully that part isn't confusing.
I also don't think I like the colors. I do like that maroon type color, and it is unique from most other submissions, but I think 1) I like multiple colors, like you had tried to do in your original submission (and like you have here), and 2) I can't really picture this with the green that is used in most other options, and may not look as classy if it has navy blue and/or gold. Again, that's for you to play around with.
Next, while we're on colors, I do like that gold was integrated in some logos people submitted. I didn't originally picture that, but it does elevate the logo. So, I would like gold integrated, or at the very least, have a logo where if parts of it were pulled out or made gold in certain applications it would look really good.
Lastly, the overall shape isn't quite right. You can see that the most common theme of options I've kept is the crest look with the crest being broken into quadrants, and each quadrant having some sort of element from the property/business (wine, grapes/vines, barrels, barn, river, trees, etc.). The R is then in front of that crest, and Richwine Vineyards is below all of that. I don't want to sacrifice what you have here to get that look necessarily, but if you can find a way to marry the R bottle w/ roots into that complex crest look with a different color scheme, I think that would be great. I don't want it to look messy, but I do like the idea of a logo where there is a lot going on, and while the R is very much the eye-catching, first thing you see, there are several things for you to appreciate.
Hi, thanks a lot for the feedback ; ). Yeah I agree on the colors but I though you wanted that combo, je, will modify. Let me work a bit on it and see what I can come up with. Thanks again and glad you like it. Cheers, Santi.
This is a very creative concept, thank you. Couple of notes that I would appreciate you considering: 1) I don't think the colors are right. The purple should be darker, I think, but I don't think green and purple make a great combo if you're choosing 2/3 colors I listed. 2) I do like the font chosen for Richwine Vineyards, but maybe make it a little taller. 3) I like that it's bookended by a larger R and larger S, but I think the R in particular needs to be a feature as I'd like the ability for it to stand on its own in some marketing locations.
Then also, I'd appreciate you making an attempt to do this similar thing, but with an R having the roots below it instead of the wine bottle. I like the bottle having the roots, so please don't get rid of that option, but please also make something that doesn't say Richwine Vineyards, but instead just has an R turning into the roots.
