Design a Logo for New Company

Contest Brief

We are working on building our company over the next several months, but we need some graphic design work. For this contest, we want to see some logos. Included in this contest are some references of logos we feel would suit us best, but feel free to work creatively.

- we ask that you keep font names, color codes, and things of that nature handy
- if we choose your logo, we would like multiple formats (png, jpg, psd, etc.)
- the logo must read, “The Shabbat Co.” or “The Shabbat Company” – interchangeable would be nice

- some things you can incorporate are menorahs, or shabbat candles. (Google for reference)

About our Company:
The Shabbat Co. is a one-stop shop for all things needed to make your family's weekly Sabbath (Messianic) engaging and peaceful. Our products range from subscription boxes to mugs & t-shirts.

We are looking for a VERSATILE and SIMPLE logo. We will be using the same fonts and styles for multiple words in addition to the main logo (such as sale pages and the like). We do not want to see logos that are too busy or too elegant. We will be enlarging and decreasing the logo in size if we do use it, so it will need to be suited for that kind of work and still look as good as it does in the original sizing - not odd or disproportionate. We will also be interesting in swapping out words and images if we do choose your logo, so that is why we ask for versatility - should be designed so images may be replaced, multiple words look good in the same fonts, and things may be added if needed.

As I said on the public clarification board we do not have the time to give feedback for every single logo and designer - we try to do that for the designers that request it, but if you just ask us to look at it we will and decide whether or not it is a fit for us. We will immediately reject it for a few reasons: one being that the style just does not match - this is not a fault but just a designer preference; two, if we notice you are using free images and fonts; three, if it is not versatile or simple to align with the direction we are headed for the graphic in the future. Please do not be offended if your design is immediately rejected, it saves both of us time. If you have any questions or desire feedback to re-try, please mention so in the public clarification board - we are getting over 100+ notifications a day and the comments posted on the individual entries are easier to miss! Also, I would advise you read the public clarification board for any information you might have missed and responses to offended designers. We are super appreciative that so many designers have set aside their creativity and time for this contest and we thank you for doing that! :)

    #553, #552, #511 these are some of the designs i have posted yet rejected, alongside a host of over 500 designs from different designers, i feel a little more detail should be given on what your team is expecting, it would go a long way in helping the design process. thanks sir, i anticipate a reply.

      Hello CH. Take a look at the items ranked 5 stars, your team thinks it is the original image and custom fonts?

      @Phuong V. May I ask you to rephrase the question? The other entries are blatantly free fonts, those rated 5 are the closest we have seen to what we want and for that reason they are @ 5 stars and I do not need to explain why to those who keep entering and getting rejecting. It's the quality of the work that says we can WORK with it. When the quality of the designer is poor, everything about their design says that. Some are not rated, but there have been MANY others that I have taken back to my team and we really really liked, but after much analyzing and thinking about the future of the company and the flexibility with the design and the artist, we had to reject some great logos unfortunately.

    NOTICE: Due to mass amounts of entries we cannot go through and rate each one individually. We can do our best to offer suggestions upon request following a rating/rejection. We reject your designs either because the style is not what we are looking for or the design work does not suit us. If your entry is rejected, consider reaching out for a suggestion to re-design or re-enter, but we do not mean personal offense through the rejection of your design. Thank you.
