    sihem,

    Thank you for your messages.

    To answer your questions:

    lead29 was actually working with me on the squares and rectangles as early as design #90 &#91 (you can see them by going to my early messages in my comments section).

    He had leafs within the squares as early as design #174. In fact, his final designs are quite unique and follow designs he had worked on previously with me. In fact, he could say the same about your design...I am not the proper judge on who is correct.

    It is unfortunate your designs are similar, but I do not believe either of you were directly copying any of each others works.

    The Site Administrator says that it is common that a concept of the two designs can be similar to a certain extent and it should be probable between entries in the same project.

    However, if you think that your design has been unfairly copied by another designer, you can contact the Site Adminstrator and I will follow their rulings.

    It is not my responsibility as PH to judge copyright, only to guide & select the final design in a fair manner, which I believe I have done.

    A very unfortunate situation for sure. All of that said, I still have not selected a final design and will discuss with my collegues.

    Thank You and Best Regards,

    Randy

    We're getting down to the last few hours, so I have elimated designs even though I rated them high. If I can't see the logo actaully working for the company, I am eliminating it.

    I think I am geetting close to what I want. There are many examples of abstact icons that represent "construction"...and many have the "green" or "environmental" flavor withour being overwhelming.

    Thanks everyone!

    Keep the final revisions coming...almost there!

    lead29,

    Glad to see you're back in it. I like the leaf and the square from #910. Maybe that can be stacked on the left of #911 design?

    For #911, I am having a hard time with the proportions. If it were a house on the left, it is quite a tall strange shape.

    I really like the direction of #905 & #854 from other designers. There may be something there that you can incoporate with your #782 or #844...I like the fact that the house is just a shape...the outline represents more "construction" to me, than just a "house," which is the right direction.

    Could you "frame" a PB with a simple outline similar to this?

    Thanks!

    I uploaded a logo file I have previously created. This is more the style of icon I am going for. You can see the house, the commercial building, there was a drafting cursor which would also represent "consulting." What it did not have is a leaf or anything representing the environment. However, the swooping arc could easily be incoporated as a leaf. Feel free to take this idea and develop it. I always felt the proportions are off, so it could use modifications.

    Donarkz's #877 is a move in that direction.

    Thanks!

    Thanks to all the designers who have participated. I am re-opening the competition because I don't feel I have exactly what I want. However, I think that I am very close. I now have direct feedback and an understanding of exactly what I want.

    I have 12-13 designs that I have left stand for improvement. I will comment on the leaders and what changes I would like to see.

    the green and the leaf went viral closer to the endo of the design and they are not mandatory. Any abstract element that would suggest we care about the environment and design with that in maind is acceptable.

    Do not get too caught up in complex designs as I am more drawn to abstact elements. I find the intracate details get lost when the logo is used in a smaller design and a small format logo is something that we will use all the time. So the design has to work at a small scale.

    I also want to stick to a two-color design.

    My general comments are as follows:

    I am looking for an icon to base the design around. lead29's #782 would be my best choice. What it lacks is some abstract elements that would immediately lead you to believe it was a construction company.

    designfort's #594 encompasses all of these elements, but I just feel that the leaf design is too bold. you see the leaf before the rest of the icon. But again, it is the best at getting all elements.

    Nadya's #823 is also an excellent start on the design, but she came in so late, I didn't have any chance to critque the design. I hope to see addtional drafts.

    BlackCatCreations design #845 was not in my top three...I think because the leaf again was too strong, but I did a test market survey of my logo and it was rated high.

    pitulas's #400 was another logo that rated high and had some potential.

    immanuel's #270 is an example of a logo that rated high that I feel is a little too complex.

    refresh's #300 was not chosen by any of my sample audience, but there is something I like about the overall design, and I give the designer credit for choosing some different colors.

    Thanks again, and I hop you will continue to participate!

    If you've have your idea done correctly why have you eliminated my entries.I think its a partiality you've done with me.

    lead29, I like where you are going with #779 & #780. My final thoughts are if I could incoporate any iconic elements that represent both residential and commerical construction. What if the "PB" struck though an angled roof line or such...I think the construction elements have to be quite abstract...Thanks!

    Draft #622 by onebrick is a derivative of #617 by BlackCatCreations, therefore has beent aken down.

    Yes, for some reason the leaves and green have gone viral...

    @PH: Just wondering why is that there's a leaf on every design? for me it looks like a business that involves leaves. :) Just a thought.

    lead29, wht if you put #540 back in our PB square? Just a thought...thanks!

    designfort, could you do a revsion to show the icon to the left of the text in #552? Thanks so much!

  • March 17, 2011 2:58 PM RandyP
    Project Holder

    designfort, #565 & #566 are very good. If you don't mind, I would change the leaf as per #552 is the one I like. The other change I would like to see is that I like #552 because it has two "floors" or stories which I feel is a bit more appropriate to our marketplace. Thanks!

    lovely, #510 is an interesting design...would love to see a few more revised concepts.

    lead29, design #540 is another brilliant design...love your work! Keep the submissions coming if you have ideas!

    designfort, I really like the direction of #530...could you clean the leaf up? It looks a little like the house is on fire...

    chocolacer, I was wondering who was going to begin to play with the dot on the i. Thanks for your designs...not what I was going for...but I'd be anxious to see more. Thanks!

    lead29, your design #461 is one of my favorties...I wonder if the leaf could break the box...meaning it doesn't have to be entirely in the square. Thanks! Looking forward to some little tweaks!

    mimaservi,

    I like the direction of these last logos #441 & #443. Some suggestions would be to paly with the leaf shapes a bit...I am not sure the proportions feel right. And try some different text...I think that could be improved. Thanks!

    designfort,

    We do not do tall builidngs and have very few where we live...maybe try knocking a few stories off your design #495. Thanks!

    Thank you to all designers so far,

    The deadline for this project is getting very close so I tried to be very specific on what I want. Please view my recent comments below for some guidelines.

    I am still looking for that 5star design!

    One final comment. I printed out all of the active rated logos very small by accident...but what it showed me is how they look on papaer and that I have to consider what they look like at a small scale. I have re-rated many of your designs after reviewing them in print and small print.

    Please keep your designs at two colors (variation of a color is fine) as they seem to stand out the best on paper!

    Good luck to all of us!

    refresh, I like your #330 out of all your designs...I have a slight worry it is too residential, but I think this is your best so far. Thanks!

  • March 16, 2011 8:02 PM RandyP
    Project Holder

    immanuel, I think you are on the right track with #129 & 208. Do you think you could try some revisions to incorporate flat roof commercial builidngs as well? I just don't want the logo to be too residential...and I feel the logo needs to balance a little more. The swipe of the ground makes it hard to deal with. However, I have promoted these logos to some of the top designs.

    Thanks!
