A few weeks ago, I was asked to submit a few ideas for a new logo to the Sharon Lutheran Church communications committee. The information they gave me was they wanted the cross to look exactly like their architectual wood cross on the outside of the building and they wanted the four different colors (representing the seasons) incorporated somehow. I would say 3-5 examples would suffice but once I start I guess I just cant stop, I submitted 9. I like to throw a couple of my own ideas in there to show clients I can think outside of the box as well, give them a different way to look at it - and who knows, they may see they like it better. Those two examples would be the bottom two, very young and contemporary feel - definitely geared to the younger christian followers. The committee has chosen to go with the top right logo with some font and color changes. I will repost the edited version once we get to the next phase of the very long 'logo' process.
The brochure I did for Hannaford, ND focused on the agriculture of the community. Jill wanted to show the many different crops grown so for the backgrounds I used corn, beans, sunflowers, and wheat along with smaller photos highlighting some attractions of the town. The back flap talks about the history of the community and the cover shows off their new logo and slogan.
For the last three months I've been working on a logo design for Magic Valley Symphony in Idaho. Initially I sent them 10 designs that I came up with so they had alot of options to choose from. Three of the members narrowed it down to one specific look they liked. During the process, many things have been altered: fonts have been changed, text was added and pieces were removed so this is much different than the first draft. They liked the idea of a treble clef intertwining in the letters but after many revisions the result ended up being a baton and 'swoosh' in the background making up the treble clef laying on it's side.
