Thanks for the submissions so far guys,
The Day, I need you to focus on the Rustic aspect of the brief, everything is a bit too simple for me there. The orange you have used is a bit too sharp aswell, I am looking for something more towards an orange-brown (I call it burnt orange)
Cetakos, I really like the vibe you have gone for in the design but I will need some colour. Also, the character in the logo is a bit old fashioned, maybe have a look at replacing that with another image or take some influence from The Days character design.
Business Builder, I am afraid you are off the mark for me, this is not a direction that I can see myself taking.
Some more direction, the reason I want to go with Charcoal grey is because I like the idea of colouring the cafe in chalkboard paint and rubbing chalk dust all over it to give the impression of a chopping board covered in flour. Maybe incorporate this into your design?
