We must change the lettering to read 'the candela collective'. We must lose the 'inc.'.

We really like where you are going with this and are very happy to have found you. We like the idea of a more techy and modern font like you have presented but think that #65 will work better if it was toned down just a bit.

We like the font but could you please try making the A's complete in one sample and making the E complete in another - we want to keep either the A's or the E as you have them here but not both. Also - if possible please give us a few font variations keeping in the modern techy spirit.

We like the flame you have created. If possible give us a few flame examples. If there's anyway to incorporate a 'c' into the flame, it would be fantastic.

Thanks kindly. We look forward to your submissions.

We apologize for the confusion but we must now revert back to our full name of 'the candela collective inc.' - an indecision on our part that has now been decided.

Your new submissions are greatly appreciated. We like the #110 font and arrangement but we would like to see the font in all black - I believe there is a hint of deep red in it now. The grey color you use for the rest of the words could be deepened as the current grey color fades too much into the white background.

Also - we really do like your first flame attempt in design #65 best. We think it's because your new flame (#110) looks like it has an 'e' built into it and isn't coming across as having the 'c'. If you could try to make the 'e' shape in the flame look more like a 'c', it would be greatly appreciated as we do like the design elements of the new flame.

That's it really. Nice work. We look forward to your final submissions.

As for #163 - your other flames are better and the 'C' attempt still looks like an 'e' to us.

Maybe try simply bulking up the 'c' flame element in design #110 just a bit and get rid of the lip at the top of the 'c' that makes it look like an 'e'. The flame can be a little less elegant if it makes the 'c' come across more clearly.

Thanks again.

It's getting there. A few more of us need to digest the new look before we make the final call. The 'c' is better but there's there's something about your original flame in #65 that may lead us to accept it as the winning design.

Also - if possible, could you give us a sample of #169 with the straight line designs included as you have in #13. Thanks so much.

Nice job.

Hi Sir, the new file are ready, I used the same form of design #65, but with the new "C".
For any changes let me know, I'm here and wait for your comment.

Kind regards
Thank you,

Congratulations Francesco - we will chose from your final design to pick the winner. We are hoping to make a few small changes before we ask for the final files.

We still like the original flame (color and style) best from #65. That being said, we would like you to take one more crack at the 'c' within the flame in your #187 design. In #187, the 'c' is close but it feels a little skinny. Could we please see one more 'c' in the flame but make it follow the thin and thick style that the flame itself possesses. We may ask for copies of the flame with and without the 'c' but we'll make our mind up when we see one more pass from you.

We will go with the font and layout from #187 for 'CANDELA' but hope to use the 'COLLECTiVE INC.' from design #65. Please keep the lines but lose the grey colour and make everything black. Also - in #187, 'THE' is too large and needs to be smaller. We hope to see 'THE' centred on top of 'CANDELA' but please make it in the same size as 'COLLECTIVE INC.' from #65.

IF POSSIBLE - please give us one more font option for 'CANDELA'. My colleagues would like to see 'CANDELA' in a slightly more techy or digital feeling font (think TRON but not quite as extreme). If you can't show us one more font example, we understand and will happily stick with 'CANDELA' and the font from design #187.

Thanks so much for your efforts and cooperation. You have a nice eye for detail and are a talented designer.

Looks great. Thanks for your work. We are very close to making a decision. We just need feedback from one more colleague before we can select a winner from one of your designs. We will let you know in the next little while.

Okay. We will go with #208 after a few small changes. We need the 'E' in 'CANDELA' to be like the 'E' in #169 / #187 / #189.

There is some indecision on our end which I apologize for - we need to see 4 versions of #208 with the full 'E':

1) #208 with 'the candela collective inc.'
2) #208 with 'the candela collective' - NO lines (as in #169)
3) #208 with 'candela collective inc.' - NO lines (as in #169)
4) #208 with 'candela collective'

Also - please keep the flame design from #212 because we will ask you to send it as a separate element at time of final delivery.

Thanks a lot for your help and patience. We will make our final decision within 24 hours after receiving the new logos.

Okay. We think we've found the winner, but it is not up as a file.

We like #223 but want - 'the' - removed completely. It should read 'candela collective inc.' - NO 'the'.

Can you please show us two versions:

1) #223 - remove 'the' - with lines
2) #223 - remove 'the' - with no lines

Please make sure the designs are balanced appropriately against the flame now that we are removing 'the'.

If you can show us these two versions I'm sure we can soon leave you alone and declare the winning design. Thanks a lot Francesco for your patience.

Thank you my friend for your talent and patience. We are declaring #229 the winner.

We are hoping that the flame comes as a separate element so we can use it on its own in layouts.

We look forward to receiving the final files. Best of luck with everything as you move forward.

I'm assuming as well that we'll receive the entire logo with the flame together as one complete file. Thanks again.
