Dear Designers

thanks in advance for the time that you will spend for this logo.

As you know the logo is just a component of a stationery.

To make this contest more interesting the winner will design also the letterhead and business card (if the price is reasonable)

Dear Designer

swisstimex has nothing to do with swiss watches. It means: swiss - technology information - mexico

the meaning doesn't have to be part of the logo.

Hi Barros

thanks to be the first.
It is very difficult to design a logo from scratch. be aware that I need it also on lettherhead and business cards so please don't use any backgroud.

The logo should also be able to be converted in black/white (maybe grayscale)

As symbols I have in mind atzech symbol (see attached picture) that have a meaning and I can tell a story about it

Regards

Gianni

Dear Designers

after only 12 hours of work I get 5 entries and I want to summarize following that will give you an orientation for the future entries:
1) Evitate to include the slogan. It is to long and will not be readable on a business card. Please propose a metaphor that include the slogan meaning.
2) As logo inspiration see the aztech symbol that I have attached. Don't use it because I don't have the copyrights.
3) Evitate any background pattern to the logo
4) The logo must be printable also in black/white or greyscale

If you need more information or have any questions don't hesitate to write a comment.

Thanks all for the great work

Dear Designers

here some directives about the symbol
1) inspired by an aztec or maya
2) could be a bird, for example a Quetzal bird
3) as guideline I like this bird http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quetzal
4) the symbol must express, quality, efficency and velocity (slogan better software quality, lower cost, faster delivery)
5) It represent the bridge between mexico and switzerlad (outsourcing software in mexico)

Good brainstorming

Dear Designer

the textual part of the logo looks almost the same from all logo provided.

Could you please open your imagination and provide me something "unique"

Remember that we are a software development company in switzerland that is outsourcing the activities in mexico.

Also for the symbol... maybe something that shows that we are a software development company
Good brainstorming

Dear Designers

Just for information
I dont agree that JR2 claims the paternity of the digits.
I commented to Lenty on July 15th, 2010, 2:16am to use this technics. QUOTE " Hi Lenty

thanks for the new entries.
I like your electronic circuit.. and I could recognize also the bird :) #87

could you try to replace the line with 10101010101010101010101010101 maybe different font size.

maybe design the bird with 101011110011110101 " END QUOTE

JR2 started this contest on Entry #113(2010-07-16 15:29:16) taking inspiration from Lenty's comments

Please don't use this digits technics I will not consider it anymore. Come with something really new.

I started using this concept with my first entry #102....and did all revisions you asked me for, #113 is not taking inspiration from Lenty's comments, but from your brief (aztec, maya symbols) I do not use "inspiration" from other designer's ideas, I have over 25 years background in graphic design, so I do not need to use someone else's ideas, as I have a very, very long portfolio of my own ideas, and know well what is a concept copy.So Good luck !
