Needs:
Company name; Dawn Designs – Menuiserie – Joinery
As I am an English native but residing in France, I would like to mention my trade in both languages. I would like to have the option to remove the text sometimes from the logo, so the imagery needs to stand alone and be identifiable.
Company description;
1. Selling premade and custom made wooden items for the home
2. Offering a made to measure service to build kitchens, dressing rooms, bathroom units and more, from melamine, MDF, chipboard and natural timber.
Logo request;
I need the logo to be quite generic so that I may represent both markets; selling items online, as well as offering professional home renovation services and products.
The logo should be professional, clean, and as simple as possible, it will be all about the colour contrasts and shapes used. I do not wish to see in the logo, any representation of the items I will make. I wish to use shapes and imagery of tools of the trade. More specifically, I would like to incorporate in the design:
1. Either a circular saw blade OR a hand saw
2. Contours (like those on a map to show a mountain) OR a simplistic representation of wood grain
Logo colours;
ALL of the following;
1. Dark purple (aubergine)
2. Pale purple/grey
3. Dark grey
4. White (with options to remove the colour to have negative space)
ONE (or non) of the following complimentary colours, I will let you decide;
1. Burnt orange
2. Mustard yellow
3. Lime green
I use these colour names, but please feel free to deviate and find a complimentary version that works. I like bright, with a grey hint.
Files types;
1. JPG, PNG, PDF, PSD, GIF, AI, files
2. I will use the logo on social media sites (Facebook, Instagram, Etsy, on my website)
3. I will print the logo on A4/A3 paper such as for client quotes, flyers, business cards and on plans/design sheets.
4. There is the potential for the logo to be printed on a vehicle later on and also for signage at expositions
I wish to be able to resize the logo and for the quality of the image to remain. I need to have the option to edit the logo to remove the font. I would like to receive or have the option to create vector versions of the logo.
I am excited to see the results!
Thank you in advance for your hard work.
Kind regards,
Dawn Designs - Menuiserie - Joinery

I hope you'll like it,

TDCrook says :
Hey!
Thank you so much, it's wonderful :D Super happy.
When it is time to share the files in a few days, will they also include the font? I did not verify this in my request, but I can only assume it's normal to include this too?

wira_mv says
Hi, I'm sorry for the late response.
about the font, yes, since this font has a free license, I will include this font for you.
Also if you want to do small revision with this font, I will do it for you, free of charge of course.
Also if you are interested in getting more design from me, like business card, brochure, packaging or web design, feel free to contact me directly to my mail (designedbywira@gmail.com), I will surely give you a better deal for you.
best,
Wira

Hey :)
The designer always knows best...I think I may be opting for the original one...but I would like to see the Aubergine and Grey with the colours reversed? So Dawn Designs is written in the aubergine and the grey is the saw? I am pretty sure if this option is not right, I will go with the previous one..marked with 5 stars to confirm. I hope it's ok to make this last change?
A little extra question, are the words Menuiserie and Joinery centered with the saw? It may just be an illusion with the saw teeth.
Kind regards,

TDCrook says :
Hey,
Also love it, but the one image is lost (green background and previously the orange background). Could you try a combination of the previous grey background (same grey as on previous "orange" version as this really works well) and pair it up with the purple? You can change the shade of purple if you want to make it fit, but I think it would go well as is. If not, darken the purple just a little. Look at the shade that was used on the very first submission for my logo. Those shades or similar.
I hope that's clear, if not, let me know :D -
TDCrook says :
So in short; grey, purple and white. I do love the orange, and the green but perhaps we should stay simple to ensure the 3 colour ways work well.

Hi I'm sorry for the late reply, I'm really busy this past 2 days, I'm sorry that I can't give you the revision that you've asked before the deadline.
If you still want it I can mail you the new design revision.
Best, Wira -
TDCrook says :
Hi Wira,
I am a little confused by the site now, but I have extended the opening for another week, but this is to discuss with you further the design. I hope it will be clear for others I will not accept their offers. -
TDCrook says :
I've just updated the logo request to mention that a winner has been selected, and I hope that over the next few days we can organise the final design together.

hi, thanks for the clear feedback, what do you think about this one ?
-
TDCrook says :
Hey,
Appreciate seeing the change so quickly, thanks a lot!
This is looking awesome. Could I see it with a purple/aubergine instead of the orange? Also, just a minor detail...the contours that are shown on the under side, could they be adjusted as the lines are too spaced out creating an awkward open space.
Kind regards,

Hey!
This is nice. I don't like the 2 hand saws, perhaps the contours underneath could be duplicated on the top? I like balance/symmetry.

hi this is yet another version for the circular saw.
I make sure to keep the proportion, make it as balance as possible and make it less simple.
I hope you'd like it.

Hey!
This design is definately on par with the initial one. Thank you for implementing the changes. It's a contender for sure!
I see you have increased the size of the second row of font, thanks for that, but with this change I feel now we are losing the impact of "Dawn Designs" which needs to be larger.
Kind regards,
DD

I am spoilt for choice with your designs! :D
This one again, is strong. When I see a large version of it, it looks better than when I see the thumbnail version. The smaller font is lost alongside the contour lines. Maybe it is the colour? The proportions are good.
An idea came to mind; remove contours, slightly increase size of "Dawn Designs" and try the idea of adding a horizontal rectangle with the wood grain/contours? Ok, too many ideas come to mind now, so I will say no more, you are the designer. If this speaks to you, I'd like to see more.

Love the idea of the 2; saw and tree. As with the design below, it's missing something. Perhaps too simple? Not sure I like the angled font. I definately like symmetry.

TDCrook says :
I want to love this one, but it is not quite there. The balance of proportions and simplicity of design ARE fantastic. Perhaps more colour blocking is needed? Or perhaps add the contours/wood grain onto a separate horizontal block/rectangle to create the illusion there is a piece of wood in front of the blade? Just thinking aloud. If it speaks to you, I'd be interested to see a revision.

TDCrook says :
This design is also a contender, but right now, it is off balance. With the weight of the handle on the one side, the eye needs something extra on the right side but I cannot put my finger on what could be adjusted/added there. If you have any ideas and feel up for it, see what you can come up with. In the meantime, I will keep thinking too and update you if something comes to mind!

Hi,
Thanks for your kind feedback, after considering your feedback I decided to use two man hand saw instead of two hand saws to make the logo wider and thinner.
I also have enlarge the font to make it more readable.

Hey!
Apologies for any delay in my response.
I have to be honest, I am not a fan of the saw you have chosen because for me this suggests I am a lumberjack/exterior carpenter. I really like your original design, it was just the angle I thought could be adjusted (and perhaps I am completely wrong here :D). I did not mean to over complicate my feedback for you. The other point was just increasing the font size for "Menuiserie Joinery".
I will comment above for your other designs...

hi, thanks for your kind reply.
I have revised my first design to suit your liking.
I hope you like it.

Hi Wira_mv!
Many thanks for your submission and time working on this design. I really love the idea of the tree trunk here, and the hand saws work well too. I can definately relate to the design in positive way.
I would like to ask for a few adjustments if you have the chance?
I'd love to see the saws angled downwards a little more so that there is some overlap with the company name? I think it is the feeling of a cross shape that is what I want to change, if they were more horizontal, I like the idea of creating a concaved/convexed edge on the top and bottom, so the logo is wider and thinner?
Additionally, I need the font a little bigger, the "menuiserie / joinery" is lost. The font scales are good though. It needs to pop a little more.
I'd love to see version 2!
Kind regards,
Dawn Designs -
