The Contest Brief

Contest Holder Name: Tweety Bird2 

Company Name: Legacy Cabins

Company Slogan: 

What We Do: • Our Vision: People of Faith Building Shelters (Faith being ecumenical and not exclusivity. Faith also being belief in oneself, expressing a pioneering spirit, and being grateful for using one’s talents in a manner that respects others and nature). We are not looking for traditional symbols of different religions. • Legacy Cabins provides ready-to-build micro cabin kits (includes instructions, drawings, and building materials) for the outdoor enthusiast. The cabins are designed by an architect, which is a distinguishing factor of quality when compared to the competitors in the industry. Note, the cabins are made of wood, but they are not “log cabins”.

Industry Type: Construction

Top Three Things to Communicate Through Our Logo Design:

#1 1) Responsible design & building practices by being sensitive to the ecosystem where they dwell.

#2 2) Build your own personal retreat (small cabin-like structure) out in nature.

#3 3) Connecting earth & sky, night & day, water & land, humans as part of nature and not separate from it.

Our Target Audience:

• Outdoor Enthusiasts: athletes running, hiking, climbing, skiing • Do-it-yourself (DIY): construction • Permaculturist: living off the land • Survivalist: getting away • Sojourner: spiritual retreat centers • Sportsman: hunting & fishing lodges • Location: rural

We like these colors:

The following is a color pallet to explore with combinations as the artist chooses. It is ultimately not a requirement to have all of these colors present, but a starting point to explore ideas. We will be willing to look at other colors if the artist makes a compelling case for other options in their design. • Cobalt or ultramarine blue • Warm yellow • Green • Reddish-brown Shadows or positive/negative images are encouraged, but not required. Black or grey are not acceptable. We are not looking for a slick/streamline image, but one which portrays the ruggedness of something constructed of wood which blends with the organic surroundings. The logo should be able to be sketched in a few seconds. We are looking for something more simple, as opposed to complex. Our logo should have some element of line contrasted with a curved element.

Another comment to all contestants. I wanted to add another variable to what I am looking for, as if there aren't enough already. An underlying theme to my project narrative is that I am looking for a "nostalgic/reflective" feel to the logo.

My favorite submissions to date, not necessarily in order of preference, are numbers 52 & 59. I have given each of the contestants comments because there are some items with each of them which require adjustments.

Notes to the Logo Designers
We have not received the variety of design ideas which we had anticipated. We therefore have developed our own design idea for the logo which we are looking for and added some images which suggest the direction for the logo development:
- We have included a version of our old logo.
- We have noted the elements of the logo which are required.
- We have identified the variations of the elements which we would like the designers to consider and develop for us to see.

The following are highlights of design elements which are critical to the design:
- Simple Cabin with: shadow, warm colors, chimney, window
- “Life” abstract tree leaf element.
- Curve contracted against straight line element.
- Words out of the body of the logo icon. We want the option of being able to move the text fonts around the perimeter of the logo icon as we see fit.
- There needs to be more variation in text fonts than we have seen to date.
- The logo image must be able to stand on its own without the name “Legacy Cabins” associated with it. The logo image also must be able to be expressed both in “color” and “black and white line-work”.
- Connecting earth and sky
- We are looking for some type of artistic expression which shows “ruggedness” and not so much “modern”.

Good Luck

Welcome and Thank You for Choosing LogoContest.com!

Here are some helpful hints to make sure you get the most out of our site, and your contest.

DO NOT FINALIZE YOUR CONTEST UNTIL ALL REVISIONS ARE MADE AND THE EXACT DESIGN YOU WANT IS SHOWING AND SELECTED.

1. Please rank your submissions or post general comments a minimum of 1 time per day while your contest is running. This is required should you want to request an extension to your contest and will produce the best results from our designers.

2. Once your contest receives 40 design concepts, your prize amount will become "Guaranteed".

3. Please make the most out of our messaging and comment systems.

a) Place general comments on this main contest page to give all of the designers your preferences and what you would like to see or not see.

b) Clicking on any designers submssion will bring up a page of all submissions by that designer with an option to post private comments pertaining only to his work. (Only the contest Holder and that designer can view and post to this page)

c) Clicking on the designer username under a submission will allow you to send a completely private message to that specific designer.

4. Please "Eliminate" only those logo designs that you feel have no chance of winning your contest. (Be aware that eliminating everything may discourage participation from the designers.)

5. Please rank the designs 1 to 10 and there are also options to rank Elements you like, Colors you like, and Fonts you like. This will help guide the designers toward the design that you are looking for. For the best variety of designs, try not to keep the same design ranked #1 for an extended time as this may result in copying of that design.

6. We require that you do not ask one Designer to use elements or concepts from another Designer. The general rule is that, if a Designer was the first to use and submit the idea in one of their designs, they essentially own that concept or idea for the remainder of the contest. We will remove any deisgns that use copied concepts. Requests or ideas you have put in your Contest Brief or posted as contest attachments are fair game and open to everyone. Concepts that are considered obvious will also be fair game, for example: a dog & cat for a pet hospital, shopping bag for an e-commerce company, a tooth for a dentist, initials for a lawyer, etc.

7. Once your contest ends and is in judging mode, any designer that is ranked #1 #2 #3 #4 or #5 will be able to upload any revisions you request. Simply rank a designers entry to allow revisions to be uploaded.

 

Discussion Guidelines:

1. Designers and Contest Holders please always be respectful of each other, we all have the same goal.

2. Please do not criticize any design publicly, these discussions should only be held in private.

3. Designers may not post any external links to any designs.

4. Please do not ask a contest holder to view your designs or discuss any other designs.

5. Designers can not discuss copied designs on the contest pages and may submit a Logo Dispute to the Admin only.

 

Our team at LogoContest.com as well as our designers will make sure you are 100% satisfied and want you to leave here with a design that you love!

Please recommend us to your friends and business associates for all of their logo design and web page design needs.
