StudiaLogo Design Contest

Hello! Here are some hints for getting the most out of your contest as it progresses:

~~ You, the Client, are very important! Your active participation is the single greatest factor influencing this contest. Active participation by you, the Client, helps you get the logo design you want!
~~ What's active participation? It's updating the brief with more information for Designers to work with as the contest progresses, providing feedback to Designers on their entries when they're submitted, and ranking designs at least once a day.
~~ When you provide feedback to Designers, you increase the chances of getting the logo you want. More feedback = better results!
~~ Leave private feedback by clicking on a design. Feedback will be made public upon contest completion.
~~ Rank designs at least once each day -- this will encourage Designers to submit more entries!
~~ Ranking prevents your contest from going idle! Active contests attract more Designers.
~~ Ranking gets your contest noticed. Unless your contest is Private, 1st place entries are posted to the portfolio page: https://logotournament.com/portfolio
~~ Please note: if you're asking for a design that will require several hours to create, to attract Designers willing to invest that amount of time the prize should be at least $400-$500. All "Character" style logos fall into this category.
~~ Designers are not offended by "Not Interested." We'd like to know what you don't want so we can give you the design you do want.
~~ The first phase of the contest is the "Open" phase, and everyone can submit during that time.
~~ After your contest's initial "Open" phase closes, it will enter the "Top 5" phase; only the top 5 ranked Designers will be able to submit revisions at that time.
~~ The "Top 5" Designers are the first 5 Designers in a contest, not the first 5 designs.
~~ When "Top 5" ends, the "Judging" phase begins. The Designer of the 1st place design will be the only Designer who can submit revisions at that time.

Hi everyone, thank you very much for your quick posting. I'm very excited!
Below are some things I realized about what I really want through viewing your postings;

1. Background needs to be white.
2. Orange/yellow-orange should not be used as main color, but as sub/one-point color.
3. Letters "Studia" should be easily read, without being obscured by pictorial/abstract marks.
-Marks used in the dot in "i" is totally fine.

It would be appreciated if you can post more gray/professional ones as well.

Again, thank you very much!

Hi everyone, thanks for additional posting!
Here are additional things I realized;

4. Please make "tudia" small letter.
- Regarding the first "s", I don't know my preference yet. It would be appreciated if you can post more capitalized "S" version, with some decoration to "S"

5. I prefere light-gray as #13 or #19 to dark-gray as #26 or #27

Thanks!

Hi designers, thanks for your cooperation!

Here is my additional request;

6. Please do not include the slogan "Turning Study into Play". Let's make it simple.

Thanks!

Thank you very much for your excellent designs!
Here are additional requests from me;

7. Main color used in letters "studia": Gray
- but please avoid grays darker than #41 or #45

8. Colors used as sub/one-point: light-green or orange (or both)

9. Marks should not be too conspicuous or large. Please make them simple and not too big, and somewhat abstract.

I summarized my comments and updated the brief.

Hi everyone,

You don't have to make grays in posted designs lighter.
I just meant I want you avoid to use "very dark (or nearly black) gray". Normal gray is totally fine.

I'm sorry if I made you misunderstand.

Hi everyone, thanks for so many great designs! I really appreciate them.

As I'm going to have a meeting tomorrow morning (in Japan), the last timing I can re-rank your designs is 9 hours later from now (that is, about 5 hours before official open phase ending time).
If you have a new entry or revision, please make sure you post them by then.

Thanks!
