RM Stonescaping $75 Logo Contest

[Rex Mann]

Hi Everyone, (Admin code added by Zoe - C129373P)

My company is looking for a logo. We have never had one before. We have been in business for 9 years.

The Company name is RM Stonescaping. We design and install paving stone patios, walkways, driveways and any thing that may have pavers. We install more than design. We do 95% residential the rest is commercial work. I also do consulting and teaching work using the company name.

I am looking for something which we be used for all media marketing including the WWW.

Something progressive, A logo, which can be reconized by itself without the lettering. I also want it to be clean and uncluttered and flow.

Some colors to stay away from: Pink, orange

Colors I like are gray, taupe, plum and forest green.

That's it to start. I'll give you feedback and direction as we progess.

Good luck to everyone!

Peace,

Rex Mann

Please accept this as my initial idea for the design.
:)

[Rex Mann]

Cre8tor,

I like the second one better. However, the style of script is
not clean enough. Thanks for your efforts.

Peace,

Rex Mann

Hi, here are my submissions for the contest
Thanks!
:)

[Rex Mann]

Huhhso,

Design on the right is the one I like best out of the three.
Would like to see a seperate logo from the letters. Logo
could have the letters RM in it. Thanks.

Peace,

Rex Mann

Cre8or,

Nice!

That's the direction I want the logo to go.
I like the cleaner lines and the artwork seperate from the
letters.

Peace,

[Radu]

Here is my entry.
Let me know what you think.

[cre8or]

Please accept this variation on my "Green" logo submission.

[cre8or]

Here's another bunch...

[Rex Mann]

Chelle,

Nice work. However, the design is to long with the RM and the Stonescaping
side-by-side.

Peace,

Rex

[Rex Mann]

Cre8or,

I like the gray octogon and purple letter logo. Can the lettering style be changed
to match the clean lines of the octogonss? Maybe a block style or something. I like
the color combo too.

Peace,

Rex

[Rex Mann]

Ruairi,

I like the third design. First I like that the letters RM are larger then the Stonescaping.
Next, I like 3-D effect. One suggestion, can you move the RM to the left over the "S" in
Stonescaping. And, the blocks could be aligned in straight lines. Thanks.

Peace,

Rex

[Rex Mann]

Cre8or,

The purple and green set of 5 desings.
To European for me.

Peace,

Rex

[Rex Mann]

J-Design,

Looks to much like an F-1 team logo. Also, the logo
is to long. Thanks.

Peace,

Rex

How's this one?

-Ruairi

[Rex Mann]

Ruairi.

I like it more. Now can you make it not skewed. Also, Change the
colors to Gray (for the letters) and maroon for the bricks.

Peace,

Rex

[Radu]

Let me know what you think.

[Huhhso]

new entry :)

[mhq]

here's my entry...

[Rex Mann]

Ruairi,

I like the 2nd one. Can you make the letters STONE the same font as
SCAPING. And, A darker gray on the letters and a darker maroon on the blocks.
Thanks.

Peace,

Rex

[Rex Mann]

Huhhso,

I like the 2nd version better. I like the lettering font. Can you come up with diffrent blocks, which are supposed to be pavers. I'd like them to look more like pavers.

Peace,

Rex

[Rex Mann]

MHG,

Nice work. I'd like to see a couple of changes. First, move the RM over top of the Stonescaping like this:

RM
Stonescaping

Or it could be centered over it.

Then put the blocks, need some that look more like pavers then stone, either over the stonescaping like a sidewalk or over the stonescaping with the RM being in the center. This is what I see:

|||||||RM|||||||
STONESCAPING

or

RM |||||||||||||||
STONESCAPING

The ||| represent blocks.

Peace,

Rex

[mhq]

i'll try and work on it tomorrow

[Radu]

Here it is.

[ElKootcho]

Here's another logo for your consideration. I tried to keep it clean and simple. 2-colors and no difficult to reproduce gradients.

[ElKootcho]

A couple more for you to think about...

[Palmer]

Nice ones Kootch ;)

Elkootcha,

I like the logo with the pavers behind it ElKootcho_01. Could you add a third paver and change the font to the same one as in your "round" rm design, ElKootcho_02 ? RM in capitols is great. And, stonescaping in lower case is cool.
Thanks for the efforts. I'm glad you're entering the contest!

Peace,

Rex Mann

[Rex Mann]

Ondaron,

Nice look! The 2nd logo with the r&m intertwind is sweet. Can we change the color of the R to a gray? Thanks.

Peace,

Rex

[ElKootcho]

Added the third set of pavers as requested

[Rex Mann]

ElKootcho,

That's much more to my liking. Thanks for taking the time to make the changes. It is a top contender.

Peace,

Rex Mann
