[Project Complete] April 1st : $150 : New logo Cleaning Company

[jteeter44]

(Admin code added by Palmer - 9SW19600RR187550M)

I am looking for a new logo for my Cleaning service. What I'm looking for is something that is very professional, and memorable with clean lines, no silly cleaning buckets or cleaning ladies, etc. It is a commercial, residental, new construction cleaning service, the name is Easy clean. I currently have no logo and am open to different varriations of the name Ez Clean etc. I will be using this logo for business cards, maybe shirts in the near future. Open to color ideas, font, etc.

Thank you for the feedback. Can you please, define "stands out" or show me some example?

[jteeter44]

Thank you for your replies:

nhr,

Do you think you could put the snowflake thing infront of the company name and maybe a different color scheme?

j.johnson,

I love what you are doing with the name and EZ and I like the font you used for the company name. But I'm not too crazy about the "ez" with the sparkle could you try just a little different "ez" and different colors.

I think what I'm trying to go for here is more of a bold color scheme.

Thanks

[jteeter44]

The second thread I said I liked I like all of those logos mainly for their design not for the colors. I am looking for a similar design but bold color scheme

Thank you.

[jteeter44]

nhr,

This is more along the lines of what I'm looking for in the color it really pops off the page. I'd also like to see something with red in it. and also the font used seems too familiar could you try something a little different?

[jteeter44]

Dragon B,

Sorry I just realized I never responded to your posts, both of the logos you posted seemed a little too simple for what I am going for. But I did love how you used all the colors could you come up with something using the purple and black (the shades you used in the last post you sent)?

j.johnson,

I like this logo the most so far. I like the last color scheme black/blue the best. The font for the EasyClean is good. I'm not so sure about the big "EZ" maybe it needs to be a different font or something

Project Update: The project deadline has been extended to April 1st.

[jteeter44]

First of all to everyone I decided to extend the deadline until April 1st because nothing has really popped out at me so far. While all submissions so far have been really great I haven't seen any one in particular that has grabbed my attention. So anyone with any new ideas please feel free to ad submissions. I also decided to cut and paste some logos I found online for other cleaning companies that I liked; opposed to posting a link here. Here are some examples of logos that I like.
<v:shapetype stroked="f" filled="f" path="m@4@5l@4@11@9@11@9@5xe" o:preferrelative="t" o:spt="75" coordsize="21600,21600">http://i238.photobucket.com/albums/ff98/jteeter44/pics.jpg</v:shapetype>
Giant,

I do like the logo you came up with. I would like to see it in different colors.

nhr,

I decided I like the original version - blue orange/all lowercase the best.

Thanks

[jteeter44]

Anyone have anymore ideas?

[giant]

Here's from me again... :)
Fresh...
Initial EC for EasyClean...simple, clean...

[giant]

Fresh No. 2... :)
EZ for the logo, and Easy Clean for the text...
simple, and clean...
and Thank You.

[jteeter44]

Giant,

Thank you for your additional entries. Out of them the second version I like best.

xpressions,

Thank you for your entries. I like the top one out of the three that say 'Cleaning Services' the best very "corporate" look. By the way I do like the words Cleaning Services in small letters I think it adds something to it to make it look more balanced. The last entry you submitted was good too. I think what I am looking for though is more like your first entry.

Thank you again for your entries

[jteeter44]

tini,

Thank you for your entry. This isn't really what I'm looking for. I did look at your portfolio though and I really like the logo you created for Oskar maybe you could do something like that.

Thank You again.

[giant]

Here's from me again... :)

[giant]

one more... :)
and Thank You.

[jteeter44]

Giant,

Nicely done, you are making my job harder and harder with all of these entries;) I like the second one better the tear drop shape I'm not crazy about. Thanks again for your entries.

[jteeter44]

Just a note that may help any of you with other ideas..... I was looking over the entries and noticed that I really tend to like all of the designs that have several shades of a color and fade from dark to light (see Giant's #38 light green to dark, and xpressions #31different shades of blue etc.) Not sure if this info helps but wanted to let you all know what seems to appeal to me more. Thanks again for all of your entries so far;) Keep up the good work.

Thank you.

[tini1]

thank you for your feed back........:)

[jteeter44]

nhr,

Thank you again for more submissions, in both of your last two designs I love the coloring I'm just not crazy about the font you think maybe you could try a different font?

tini,

I like this new design could we possibly make a few changes though? I'd like to see the top symbol a little smaller and maybe infront of EZ Clean and then maybe add cleaning services to the bottom.

Thank you both again for the entries;)

[nhr]

Different font:

Thank you.

[jteeter44]

nhr,

The first one I like thiss font better I'm just not crazy about the logo overall I think it's the box.

The second one I really like the colors, the font looks good and overall a good entry.

As always thanks again for your submissions.

[tini1]

Hello jteeter:)
Here is my revision:)Thanks!

[tini1]

and a variation(color)

[jteeter44]

tini,

Thank you for the revisions, I really like both of them. They only thing That I would change is maybe greyscale the black and white versions so that you can see the color differences in the emblem. Out of the two though I like the second submission the best. Thank you again.

[tini1]

Here is a variation showing grayscale........:)

[nhr]

My "EZ" concept:

Dynamic version:

Thank you.

[jteeter44]

Tini,

Thanks for the revisions the greyscale works great for this logo.

nhr,

I really like the first "ez" version but both of them are very good. Thank you again for the additional submissions.

[jteeter44]

Freetime,

Thank you for your submissions. I like how you have "EZ" overtop of Clean. Overall I like the idea but I don't think I'm crazy about the lines going through EZ maybe try a different font for that. I like the font clean is in so maybe something that flows with that. As always thanks for your submissions.

[freetime]

v2 Thanks for the feedback!

[jteeter44]

Freetime,

Nicely done;) As always thank you for your submissions.

[jteeter44]

An update for everyone:

I want to thank everyone for their hard work and excellent entries. The decision making process has been very difficult because I really liked so many of the entries that were posted. I have finally narrowed it down to 2 entries and will be posting this afternoon who the winner is. As always thank you.

[jteeter44]

After alot of thought I have made my final decision and the winning entry is:

Xpressions post #30

Xpressions,

Please contact me I believe the only change I would like to make is to greyscale the black and white version.

Thank you

[BlueCherryGraphics]

Congratulations Steven.

This thread has been moved to Revisions.

Client, please post a note in the thread once you receive the finals.

Thanks!

[xpressions]

Thank you for choosing my design. I can provide you with a grayscale in addition to black and white and the color version. Is that all you would like to see revised?

[jteeter44]

Thank you again for a such a good design. I greatly appreciate you doing the B&W, greyscale and color versions. The only thing that I ask, in your post the first logo has sort of a mirror image(I like this look). The second does not have this, but has different color blue stripes could you sort of merge the two? Thank you so much again.
