Hi wes-wos!
Welcome !
We woke up seeing your entry ! Love your line !
The shades of olive green are wonderfully sophisticated yet simple. The combination of Olivegreen and purple we love.
#71 Our favorite so far because it leaves so much room for own interpretation but it looks harmonious and I can see Olives, waves, New Zealand tradition, bringing the unbalanced into balance. Love to see something else along these lines to inspire us.
#70 love it because it is so different yet simple - misses a bit of message
#67 #68 that has lots of potential - right now it looks to olive. But we like the round shape standing for unity. Prefer the olive-green one.
#72 # 69 too much olive but they are beautiful

We need something that stands for all areas of our business:
The Olive products, the natural skin care, the Yoga and Yurt accommodation. But the logo should leave from for interpretation.
However, we do not want to look like a shop that sells buddha statutes and gemstones and little cheap things.
Excited to see more of you !

#70
just came back to this one in our last hour panic. We love the elegance of it . can you do 4 of the leaves- one in green and one in the four colors
purple (yoga), olive green, orange (or natural for skin care products)
and blue for view from yurt (sky or sea)
Please Please
thank you

Thanks for sending the colors through so quickly. You probably knew it before - but it does not work with colors. We still prefer the green one.Have to decide if we go for this although it does not directly show the yurt and yoga and skin care (in color or icon). That was why we asked t do four leaves - to represent that (or our four kids...) 6 leaves would be all the family. But Mr B said that 5 leaves looks harmonious - is that the reason?
Hopefully we find a good solution in the process.
If you want to go the extra mile changing leaf numbers or other we will be happy.
Thanks

#311 - thank you. Would be good to see how you combine the other elements of the brief (in the general comments) from Mrs B??

Kind regards

HI WES WOS
#323 IS A GREAT IDEA.
It could just be a person but also a person doing yoga - very good. can you make the person a bit more balanced and try to draw her with one line only - at the moment she is turning her head, that is not healthy.
Looking forward to the alteration!
Regards

Client
Hi there Wes Wos,
#323 MR B here, I think i must suggest some further changes to what Mrs B wrote.
I think the 4 green leaves and the person behind are too confusing / messy.
Could you perhaps change the design to just the person sitting / meditating? I love the arching of the legs over the logo - this really holds it together. Perhaps make the whole illustration of the person thicker and more balanced?And the font of the Simply B thicker too.


#311 - lets leave this as a back up - but please make the font thicker (as with #323)

Finally - Background color - is this the best fitting background for the labels / brochures ?
Thanks!

Hi Mr and Mr B,

Thank for your response and suggestion.
it is not easy to realize your ideas, which should respond to the concept of your idea, how to combine several elements in harmony and give an image as you wish, this is very interesting!!

for revision this time I tried, describe people who are doing yoga over two crossed leaves that form a bowl.

Thanks you!

Client
Hi wes wos,
can you send one again with the leaf standing up, like in #351 - Mr B asked to have the vertical leaf a bit bigger - let's try !Thanks
Darker background like in #370 and 369 looks nice.
Mrs B

Ok, Mr and Mr B!
I'll do.
Thanks you!

#351 still has the greater balance, could it be because of the glow ? The new entries lack that.
12 years ago
 
Logo Designer
I think so,
with a solid color background image so it looks flat, does not have the space dimension.
is the background color of the image gradation is seen as alive (not static), because the effects of light tends to give the space dimension.

Client
HI Wes Wos
#351 we prefer - font is stronger, smaller vertical leaf looks better - but please add the structure in the leaf. Th glow make sa difference - looks good. please can you try and give us a nice dark purple background as an alternative - and please - if you have another idea for background, we are happy to see it !
Thanks

Hello - I asked if pipgrafix was ok for you to do some more and she was !!

#351 we prefer - font is stronger, smaller vertical leaf looks better - but please add the structure in the leaf.
The glow makes a difference - looks good.

And please - if you have another idea for background, we are happy to see it ! But at least one version with the current " light green / pale background with the glow...

Please place the text: Olives & Co., Natural Skin Care, Yoga & Yurts, Under the Simply B

and as a variation please put a fine line between the Simply B and the new text " Olives....
Thanks!

Client
Hi Wes-Wos,
thank you so much !
#457 that is our favorite. Only small changes: the thin veins(lines) in the leaf should go away, except the middle one. Keep it simple.
The text under the line (Olive oil...) should be a little bit bigger. We like the glow in the background.
Regards
Mr and Mrs B

Client
#457 - Just a correction from our previous mail: we meant: " Olive & Co. " text should be a little bit bigger.

On a separate design - could you also try and integrate " Waiheke Island - New Zealand" ... somewhere??

Hello Mr and Mr B,

Thank you!

--- Hi wes wow, this is new from the main comment area ---

Dear Logo Designers,
Just to give you all an update on where we are:
We have sent our top 3 designs to around 30 women we know to get their feedback.
We should have this in the coming two days latest.

I guess during this time of reflection, you too may see areas where a little tweak here and there may make a big difference...?

If this is the case, please let us know and we will enable you to do so.

Kind regards and thanks so much for your continued support!

Hi weswos,
We have had some feedback to the design that:
- they mis-interpret it for a candle (but that they think it looks great!). Any ideas on how to avoid this? If not, don't worry, it is not a knock-out criteria - as we have had lots and lots of positive feedback too!
- the colors aren't happy and enjoying life.. again, we have had lots of other feedback saying that the colors are perfect! But - again, if you had an idea about how to increase the " joy" , (without being colorful...we went there before and I don't think this works) that would be great. And again, not a knock-out if you can't ...

Also, as we are looking to put this on small things, like a lip balm tube - so we may need to put the icon to the left of the brand name... would you please illustrate how this could look?

Take care and thanks for your note earlier on the design #311, #354, please send your idea through.

#482, #479 look both good. - I guess we will need both in the end to be able to use on different products with different amounts of room on the label.
With #482, the bottom of the circle needs to be slightly thinner - we think. And we think (not sure) that this type of circle is better than the one in #478
We believe all the text should also be in the green tones... not sure which - dark one?
The circle surrounding the leaves should also be a tiny little bit further away from the leaves (to the left and the right)...
We are not completely sure that the circle around the leaves is better than without... what do you think? Would be good to see the changes with and without the circle, if possible...

Thanks wes wos.

Logo Designer
Hello Mr and Mrs B,

Yes I think so too, the circle looks better.
With the given circle, so it looks neat and structured. and also a symbol of the circle represents the world.

I recently updated my entry you requested. entry # 493 - # 496
Thank you,

#493 - wes - wos in addition to my private message, could I please ask you to review the height of the circle above the text. Perhaps it can go down closer to "Simply B" (similar to the other entries?)

Thanks!

Hi there weswos!

Great work!
Only one or two little final things... I think!!

1. The top leaf (vertical) could the shade be a tiny little bit less yellow - as it makes people see a "candle flame"..
2. The bottom of the circle - - slightly thinner (not much ) at the bottom...
3. With the descriptors, I was thinking that they would fit under the main logo.. with a line (??) separating the "Waiheke Island, New Zealand" - line - then the descriptor...? Unless you have a better idea??

Thanks wes wos

Hello Mr and Mrs B,

To point No. 3, I am not quite know, but I try to interpret its own.
Please give comments which are not according to your purpose.

Thank you.

Hi Mrs B,

I apologize, there is little understanding of the error.
Ok, for all that the current design, I have change all the olive green color. Also there are slight variations to form a circle and also that without the circle. Please check out entry #504 - #510
Please give further comments.
Thanks,

#506, well done Wes-Wos,
this color is more vibrant, alive, positive!
Small changes:
1. What we liked on #465 was that it was clear 4 DIFFERENT shades of green. In #506 4 green leafs are TOO SIMILAR GREEN to each other. Can you please make 4 leafs more DIFFERENT SHADES of GREEN !
2.Writing: " SIMPLY B " please a bit darker, stronger Green
3. Writing: "Olives......" please same color than "Simply B" - darker , stronger
Almost there, Wes-Wos
Thank You for your patience!

Another note:
#508 and #506 are our winners, WITH the changes of our last comment (1.52 pm) . We will select you as our winner now, but really like you to do the changes before the file is uploaded.
We would like to receive both types of logo (icon above Simply B and left of Simply B) So we can use differently , depending on space on label.
OK?

Well done wes wos!!

Thanks
