Square Roofing, Inc.Logo Design Contest

Great job so far. I like #21 and #23 because they are more 3D. #21 is really cool but it reminds me of water leaking through a window, the number one issue and nightmare for my clients. Lets stay away from that. I like #20 because it's more solid. Can you try more lively versions of the colors you chose? Can you change the color grey with something else. The other designs may imply that I am in the window cleaning/installation business.

#24 has really nice blend/fading of the colors you chose. It also looks very professional. Maybe incorporate that in your other designs.

#42 is great but it may imply that i am in the window business. #41 is great! I like it because it encourages people to think about green roofs on buildings. However, can you incorporate more single family home concept into #41? Also, can you make the light blue color a little darker and keep its vibrancy? Great additions.

also a little more of a colorful/vibrant green.

I see what you are implying with #92 but my clients will likely get confused because they don't think that abstractly. However, I like where u are going with it.

#93 is great. Maybe you can try lowering the walls a little so the house concept looks shorter. Also, I was thinking if the 2D squares would look better if they were 3D.

#91 is awesome because of the subtlety with the water droplets, the clear and bold letters and the size of the 3D image. Maybe you can incorporate some of these things to #93.

For #91, can you try a different perspective like looking at the image from above, instead of from below? Some flat roofs have a part of the flat roof with a greenhouse that has a pitched roof.

Thanks for your valuable feedback..

Please find revised entry #148 and #149

Hope you like my work

Thanks

Your work is superb. Feel free to get creative with the design, if it doesn't work I just wont pick it. The one I have picked is still a square and not a giving the idea of a pitched roof. This is just me being picky but I'm doing the same with everyone else. Great work so far.

see if you can make #148 softer, it seems to have so many layers and with first look, it seems very rough. I don't know if it's the colors or the layers.

Maybe for #148 you can take out the water droplet by the word "roofing" and for the 2 letters on the cube, you can push those letters into the cube like in #94.

#194 I think the font looks more cartoonish and could be more professional. Can you try a different font. However, I don't want the design to lose the flow it has between the cube and the font of the words.

Please, try 3 fonts since there isn't much time left.

Thanks for feedback..

please check revised entry from #208 to #214 with different fonts.

hope you like my work

really enjoying working on your logo specially 3D part.

thanks again

Thank you. For #214, can you make the vertical "walls" shorter? The walls of the "S" and the "R".

I was thinking that the cube looks very tall and maybe it could look better if it's a bit shorter.

Thanks for your feedback.

please find revised entry #219 with shorter walls

thanks again

Can you try a different fade on #220? The fading effect is making it hard to read at first glance, from a distance. It's not hard to read, it's just that it could be clearer.

Hey, are you still competing?

hi.....sure i am in....watching very closely...

let me know if you need any modifications to my design.

My design has both initials and is a standalone symbol with 3D cube effect as you mentioned previously.

But your directions seems changing and request you to please update me of your new direction if any.

Hope i was on the right track

logopixel

You are right, my direction changed. The updated brief is a more clear perspective of what I need. I am picking designs that create a design based on the updated brief but also one that takes a holistic approach to that brief.

With your design, it's a really good one and it's not something anyone can create. It's just that it's a very strong logo and I don't think the words and image flow together like they could. I feel like the image is too independent of the words.

This is similar to ppt presentations when they say "less is more".
My clients on average don't think a lot when they look at my logo. Most of them don't know how a designer thinks, so less is more for them.

So, I need something that looks very professional, less on the logo and the words+image to flow better together.

if you change the font on #223, it will make a big difference. Start with that, something clean, professional and attention grabbing.

I don't know what fonts you have but I was able to find the proper names/descriptions of fonts I want. Don't worry about this message if you already have these fonts: San-serif(eurostile), possible slab serif, forward thinking, authoritative, solid, construction, sporty, no italics.

For #394, can you make the image a little smaller?

Thanks again for your feedback.......

Please find revised entry #396 with Eurostile font and smaller symbol

thanks again
