Hi,
Thank you for the feedback.
As a designer who was intending to enter this competition I wanted to clarify:
You want some reference to a horn in your logo, yet your logo has nothing to do with music. As you yourself said, your name is a misnomer, perhaps it would be best if we visually didn't try to focus on the misnomer? I think this could be quite misleading and the image of a musical instrument will always be associated with a music studio. I feel that your logo maybe mistaken for such if there are any musical references in it.

Blink Graphix,

Thanks for your response. I agree that it's a little confusing--would you be interested in offering other ideas? It sounds like you'd like to go a different direction, and I would be interested in seeing that.

Thanks so much!

Susan

Hi Susan and Bryan. Don't worry, having a logo is not easy.

So, here is my new proposal. I sticked to my original concept but try to adapted to your new vision.

I used a personalized cursive text for "in harmony" that i created. I think it evocates harmony, calm, warm, it's visually attractive, and at the same time it's modern, contemporary and professional.

For the graphic: I create a "harmonious" "H" formed with the "I" and "H" of the text to bring more harmony to the logo, inside a "focus area"(photographic element).

In version 3 the right bottom corner of the focus area is closed with the text. And in version 4 i used it as a separate graphic.

Take your time and let me know what you think. Thanks.

Good Morning!

brunocalvin,
I see where you're going with the script and the h, but it isn't striking me...I am liking the second concept a little more--but the font is a little too modern/technica.

Paula23,
You are in the ballpark! I like the tuba very subtly offsetting the symmetry. However, I would prefer a different font in Version 10.

Blink Graphix,
I am still looking forward to your submissions!


Any more ideas out there?

Thank you!

Hello,

I tried to attach this last week, and was not convinced it was attached.


Thank you!

Paula23,
Thanks for the tweaks. I would really like to see Version 9 with Dream Orphans, and in other versions (future) to emphasize "In" as equally as the "harmony". (at least 80%.)

I like the whimsical H but can we try truncating the curlique on the bottom right to just the swish?

Thanks! I am really getting excited.

Good Morning Designers!

Dewa Jaya,
I like your simple take on the I & H. Very Nice. However, I would like to see a different font in Version 1, in addition to two different coordinating colors... Thank you!

Paula 23,
The color is a little to Tiffany's for me. Can we go into a stronger blue or green, perhaps? Also, I would like to see the IN be In with the Dream Orphans font.

The deadline is today, and I will make my decision soon pending no other entries! If you're reading this and want to submit, post a reply so that I know!

Thanks so much--Happy Saturday!

Good Morning Designers!

Thank you for all of your ideas and suggestions throughout this process! After taking some time to marinate on all of the designs, I have decided to go with Paula 23's final submission (Ver. 13), pending a few tweaks...heading to revision status!

Thanks again, and good luck in other designs!

--Susan
