#22 is heading in a direction that has potential. The graphic starts to embody a whole ecosystem. Our design business will focus on the restoration of whole ecosystems. The graphic shown could become a river system, plant material, etc., a symbol of a process to 'make whole' or to restore. The graphic should have depth in meaning. Currently the graphic should have more masculine geometry. Maybe a link with the text. The use of earth tone colors are preferred.
Hi! Thanks for everything so far. We would love to see a couple other variations on #73, still looking for that perfect fit. A couple suggestions:
Invert the "curls" at the end of the lines to make them more representative of a "dendritic" pattern, which would be representative of many watersheds, trees, and other natural forms. you can google dendritic for some simple examples.
Also, It would be good to see some color options, in particular I am thinking about including some blue. Maybe a blue/brown or blue/green icon?
I really like the font, although several advisors have said it looks too stretched out, so maybe explore that a bit.
We will, inevitably, be forced to reproduce this in a rather square (2"x2") space (on our construction drawing title blocks) so consider how my comment above factors into that. How can we use that space better?
Thank you for exploring the color changes as shown in the latest round of submissions. We are finding we are still drawn to the original color schemes of 81, 82 (I think its because the blues are not as much of an earth tone as the originals, so maybe there is a more earth tone blue). The latest graphics are good but need to be stylized for that balance between literal and frilly. The graphic is moving in the correct direction and we like the use of the dendritic graphic much better than tree graphic. Maybe the stylized dendritic design could be such a way to look like vines of a leaf while at the same time could be a stream with smaller tributary streams branching off. We like the the more non-linear layout of the divide between the colors as shown in 119 better than the more linear divide shown in 118. We are drawn to images that allow different people to see different things (all of a scene of nature of course) within the same graphic. This ability to see multiple designs within a single design compliments our broad range of design services offered by our firm. Thanks!!!
