First Version of Dream Awakener Logo – Please Give Me Your Feedback
So my design team have given me the first version of the dream awakener logo. This should be logo that would represent ME well. So please give me some honest feedback. Let me know what you LIKE and DISLIKE about this concept. Please feel free to question the entire concept or anything about it. Thanks a bunch!
Here is the logo with a white background.
I need to get back with the design team by later today, so please give me your comments as soon as you are able. Thanks a bunch! This is there first attempt so please let me know what you LIKE and DON’T like. Give your gut reaction. I only get to go back and forth a few times. I have my gut reaction, but first I want to hear yours. Peace.
I like Option 2, with the variegated background.
option 1 or 3…I can’t decide.
Overall, I like it. It’s catchy, but not overdone. The whole wall is a bit much, but the white background is also not quite enough. My gut reaction (since you asked) would be to go with the logo against the top part of the wall (above the line under the logo). The dark colors at the bottom become to prominent, I think. The only thing I don’t like are a couple of the fonts. I don’t like the font on option 3 on the wall (option 2 with white background), or the last option.
Option 2. It looks more like hand-written graffiti. Honestly, the image of the woman didn’t instantly appear to me–I thought it was a freaky flower at first. (Maybe it’s just been a long day.)
Can you ask your team to actually go graffiti a wall somewhere?
Hi, JR!
Here you go – Options 2 & 4 are too difficult to read font-wise.
I didn’t see the woman rising until the background was removed…maybe put some white space around the logo when it’s on the background so it can be distinguished from the background.
Why is the “kener” so close together in most of these? It makes it really hard to read, the last thing you want with a logo. The 3rd one is nice, but somehow not original enough in the font for what you’re going for, and too feminine, especially with the female image.
Actually, it’s the kerning (or spacing) that is my only problem with #2. I really like how it feels urban, artsy, and masculine at the same time.
It’s fun to get to put in my 2 cents
Liking Option 1!!
hey bro.
I like option number 2. i think the first and last are too hard to read. love it! you are the man!
I like option 1 with the wall backdrop… it makes sense to me and reflects slot of newer stenciled graffiti. I don’t like 2 or 4, 2 seems too handsome and 4 is tough to read… later bro.
I like option 2 the best at this point. I like it because the writing looks the most like actual spray paint… But I would suggest you could make the whole effect better by going for the fully spray-painted look. The smears and smudges on the colored section look more like the result of finger-painting than spray-painting. I like the street art concept, though…
Option 2!
2 or 3 are my faves
JR,
I tend to like the first option best. The lettering is more straightforward. The difficulty with it however is more related to the background. It seams kind of busy, and may take away from it altogether.
Option 2.
option 2
Hey JR,
Lindsay and I prefer number one. The stencil effect fits the background, and I find it easier to read/discern than number 4. 2 & 3 don’t seem to match the urban background as well. I hope this helps.
Best,
Josh
I wanted to say thanks to everyone for your input on this logo thus far. There are other whole concepts in the works that I hope you can give your thoughts on as well. They may come tomorrow or the beginning of next week. Again, it is really helpful to hear from you all!
I liked option 1 the best, but I too stared at it for about a minute before I ever saw the woman. And I would say I get the potential point of the woman but is this logo about you? That’s a disconnect for me.
Jonathan,
I’m totally with you on that one. I have some other options that are coming so check back either tomorrow or the beginning of next week. This was just there first go at it.
Funny, I was thinking random thoughts & your quest for a web design popped in… had a picture of graffiti on a wall – then I looked on your blog and…. how cool is that??
I like option 1 best.
I liked option 4, it was nice to see your next pattern as a grafitti, it shows your commitment to urban environment.
Hi JR, not a big fan of option 2 font, I guess I like 3 the best. I think the background could be better, If its going to be a grafitti logo I think the font could be more authenic. And there may be a more interesting location than just a sidewalk wall, somewhere grafitti might be common in LA. But overall it looks like your working with some very talented artists.
jr , i like option 3 ,but not the woman .Doesn’t represent you.i like the grafity and colours.Sonja
Dave and Sonja,
Thanks for your input. Stay tuned for the next option. This logo will just be one concept among three or four that I will get. I have given feedback to the team and should hear back from them soon.
It probably is too late but I like option three. The font is nice and clear and the background is nice. Is there a way to scrunch the length though it kind of seems a little long
I like logo #2 and maybe go a bit bigger with the center image so the woman & building stand out a bit more. At first glimpse you don’t really know what it is you’re looking at. Great job!
