New Shop's Logo
« on: October 13, 2016, 02:27:14 PM »
Okay, the existing shop is "Interior Ink Works" the new second shop will be "Westside Inkworks" I want some common elements in the logo to tie them together (the ink jug and font "Bauhaus md bt" and medium blue/black) I want it to be a bit "cool" without being over the top, the new showroom will be "Industrial Loft" in feel/look, The attached .pdf has the two logos I currently use at the top, and three works in process at the bottom, I'm liking the bottom one so far but it's perhaps not quite "there" yet. Input? ideas? Sorry in advance for the mix of outlines and such in the file, I'll clean it up to a perfect vector once I get the look right. We'll be doing a run of 3-400 free giveaway "Westside" shirts as an opening promotion with only the word "Westside" on the front and probably a small sleeve print identifying the company, but the idea is the shirts to be primarily a promotion of the location/area for the residents,..... that just happens to get them in the front door for their free shirt....

Thanks in advance for any input!

I like the middle one, W on the first one is a little bit hard to read and I don't feel the arrow contributes to making a point. The line with the breaks in it is really nice touch!

Yes, we've won our share of awards, and yes, I've tested stuff and read the scientific papers, but ultimately take everything I say with more than just a grain of salt! So if you are looking for trouble, just do as I say or even better, do something I said years ago!

How about using the top one with a not so heavily curved W leg. More straight like middle, but still rounded
similar as middle.

Nice modern look with ink bottle.

Middle one with a "few adjustments".
If you like it, let me know and I will email it to you.

I hate to sound boring but without hesitation I would stick with your existing logo, and have 'westside' replace 'interior'.
Clean and simple.
