Hi! Thank you for your entry. This is a very good starting point. We like the angle and energy of the Blue Swoop and Sphere, yet the overall appearance of the logo feels a little to 'cartoon' and 'cute' First impression feels like a Candybar. Simplify the text. Needs to feel cleaner and more HiTech. |

Ok. Thank you for this. Here's the reaction of the team. The font feels a little to 'deco' period/stylized. Needs to be cleaner and simpler. What was lost in this version is the italicized which gave the text some energy. Not sure about reversing the colors. Understand that the words read better, but the balance of the Sphere and Swoop 'read' better when offset to the left and not encircling the entire logo/word and liked it in blue. Overall balance and shape should feel horizontal, and by encompassing the entire logo, feels a little like a 'UFO.' Really want the logo to feel more 'serious.' |

Wow. Really like the balance and very clean! Thank you! Not sure about the shape above. We like the style - very much in tune with what we're looking for - modern, metallic, high tech. Only feedback I can offer on this design is:
1) Integrate the 'shape' part more into the overall design - shape could be simplified, doesn't have to be symmetrical.
2) Shape is reminiscent of two serpents facing each other - any other suggestions? shape to imply motion or speed...? sorry, design is obviously not our forte. Trying to communicate an emotion...
Thank you for a great submission! |

Like this one even better than the previous. Might sound odd, what really works is the simplicity, and oddly, the shadow of the shape just above the text is great (shade, shape, etc.) We could lose the graphic shape entirely here. With the tone and a little implied motion, can the grey shadow be kept and worked into something and integrated with the text? |

Excellent! Fabulous work! Really captures the clean feel we're going for.
What we LOVE about the top one is the dot and radiant circles.
What we LOVE about the second version is that it is integrated with the 'i'. Not too keen on the Vertical aspect to the rings - very much prefer the horizontal as in the top one.
Is there any way to combine both and keep the balance? It doesn't have to be symmetrical for our tastes. Can the circle be integrated into the 'i' or the 'o'... ? |

Thank you for your submission! Appreciate that you stepped out of the box and offered 'green' as an alternative. Unfortunately, it doesn't really capture the high Tech feel we're looking for. Clean and modern, well done. I think it needs a little more dynamism. Keep in mind, in our description we were looking for something that could easily translate in to an animated version in After Effects or something. A little 3D aspect would be nice.
Thank you for your efforts! |

Review team really loves this one. Very High Tech and captures the colors and tonality right. Only adjustment would be 'pico' is lowercase' and only the 'B' in Blu is uppercase. |

Brilliant! This may be the favorite so far. Certainly the best graphic element interpretation! the reflection below the 'p' looks awkward and out of alignment. Also, would like a little more high tech font. you got the lowercase right on everything - except the 'B' in Blu should be Caps. |

Hello! Thank you for this entry. We feel this is still very much our favorite, yet would like to request the following adjustments:
1) No reflection below the text (no reflection of the text)
2) Capitalize the 'B' in 'Blu'
3) Do you have available a Font that is slightly more rounded as the Font in #12?
4) We appreciate the adjustments that you made in #15 - we like the scale and size relationship of the Graphic vs the Text - however, we do not like the Font in #15, as well, we do not like the reflection in the text, nor below the text.
Your Consideration is Appreciated.
Kind Regards,
Ethan |
