Hi, thanks for your submission. I would like to look at your portfolio tomorrow and make suggestions for how to strengthen this. It's not visually as strong as some similar entries (the B&W prints in the middle two letters don't read well next to the bright pink and red). From other logos you have done I hope I will get an idea of your strengths as a designer that will make it easy to suggest some possible improvements. Good night!
These are very nice, thanks for the comeback. I feel I could go down to the shops and buy a kanga very much like the print in #78! We're painting one wall of the new studio orange tomorrow, and I wish I could go stick this up to see how it looks.
#80 also has a very African feel and a completely different colour scheme than others have suggested,which has its merits. #76 and #77 are also very nice, very different whether on black or white ground.
I am definitely NOT a graphics designer, so maybe this suggestion is unworkable, but do you think the Designs with the ornaments could go between the two dots of the i somehow? Would have to drop the Ltd I think. somehow the stack of text at the bottom is bothering me a little.
a very nice surprise for the morning.Thanks a lot!
Thanks for the comments. Do you mean you want to see the two curve slashes between Design Ltd to be placed on the 2 dots of i? Okay i will post without the Ltd. I will try some varies for you to see.
Hi, no sorry, the slashes would look weird there. I think I just meant the word Designs between the dots, but may not work. Just pondering other ways to handle it.
Your B&W number 87 is very striking. i like it!
Now that so many entries have come with basically the same treatment of the text, I am wondering if you could resubmit yours (#85, 86, 87) with the Zizi a little larger, so that it's more in proportion with the other Zizi-dominated designs? Because your Zizis are quite a bit smaller, they read as less strong, which I'm not sure the design itself is. Does that make sense?
Hi Denji, thanks for doing the variations I requested (and some of your own). I apologize for taking so long to comment.
I think your designs are much easier to rank next to others of similar weight, so thanks for taking care of that.
I prefer the two dragonflies at the bottom with the dots over the i's intact, as in #134 ‡. They help to make sure the Accessories line doesn't get overlooked, in addition to being very charming of course. I liked #133, but somehow the dragonflies on top worried me a little somehow.
The use of a little colour in the tagline with the B&W logo in #135 is also a nice touch that give the design a little extra sizzle.
Thank you very much. There is a lot to consider in your design--the floral/pinwheel print that also looks like a zebra speak very well to different aspects of our business.
