We were originally contracted to simply convert a typography based logo from Microsoft Word into vector artwork (and other electronic formats), but we ended up redesigning the entire logo.  The software tracks company’s/organization’s printers in order to conserve on printing cost and to track waste.  RX for Print really wanted to show that their software was “green”, so we came up with the logo design below. It features four droplets of ink that also create leaves. The droplets of ink of course represent printing and the leaves represent the “green” aspect of their software.

Rodney uses his life experiences, including what he learned as an Army Drill Sergeant, to motivate and coach businesses and individuals. He wanted his logo to use chevrons (the inverted v-shaped military symbol used to indicate rank or length of service) to nod to his military background but in a subtle way. He also wanted the logo design to have a human element to make it more friendly and approachable.  We solved these design requirements by combining two chevrons to create a person as seen below.

The final logo is show below, the large logo on top, along with some of our other logo design options.

Since the mass majority of their clients are in some type of racing industry, the logo design they chose features a “finish flag” in the circular motion in which it is waved at the end of a race.

In the end, we went with a unique customized sans-serif type. We also created a complementary icon that he can use as a watermark, in background images, etc.

We are currently in the planning stages of redesigning his website, but feel free to check out his photography at www.tonycalarco.com.

I imagine the logo will be embossed into leather, possibly even stamped into metals or carved into wood, so the logo needs to be simple.  Below are our initial proposed logo designs.  The top left logo features a stack of photo albums that create the letter “S”.  The top right logo features a “SC” monogram which stands for both Signature Collection & Salvatore Cincotta.  The bottom left logo features a stack of three albums, the top two create the letter “S” and the bottom one creates the letter “C”.  The bottom right logo simply features an elegant script font.  Check back soon to see where these initial logo designs take us.

I think my favorite logo is the one on the bottom right.  It is simple, strong, and the second E (which represents Express) has “motion lines” that create the first E.  Stay tuned for the final logo design…
