Design an Emblem/Crest for my Photography Business Logo

  • Status: Closed
  • Prize: $100
  • Entries Received: 22
  • Winner: alMusawar

Contest Brief

I would like a crest or emblem designed for my new logo. I have a very specific idea in mind. In the attached image you will see another logo with a sort of damask style crest behind the RP. The crest has a black background with white ornate but simple trim, and a strong white ring around the letters.

I have searched for stock vectors, graphics and illustrations but nothing I can find is close to this emblem. I would like something designed for my new logo that follows very closely to the example provided but is unique in itself. It may require a fresh drawing or graphic illustration rather than a piece of clip art etc...
Ultimately, what I would like, is a creative combination of Acanthus filigree surrounding a ring with my EP initials inside.

If someone can do this in a unique, elegant and simple way, we'll be onto a winner!

My business is called Eric Pearce Photography and I would like an E P to be placed in the centre just as in the example with the E backwards.

    *PLEASE READ* As I'm not a designer or familiar with the terminology that comes with it, I didn't know quite how to explain myself properly in the brief. Since I've posted the contest I have been searching online what I would like and found some good search terms that bring up what I would like. "ACANTHUS" and "FILIGREE"

    Ultimately, what I would like, is a creative combination of Acanthus filigree surrounding a ring with my EP initials inside. (Fashioned after the example I attached to the original brief.)

    Many thanks, ~ Eric

    Another notification to please not submit any exact replicas of the example image I attached to the brief. I am looking for something similar but unique. It might be a case of finding some nice baroque or vintage or damask filigree, putting it together around a ring with my EP and seeing what you can create!
    I am looking for creativity with this image only as a strong guidance. Cheers ~ Eric

    your guidelines seems to me just as replicative

      Not to replicate, but to use that image as an example of the style. Nice baroque or vintage filigree, white with a dark outline, with a ring in the center.
      Thank you!

      Thanks, I agree. I don't want the exact same logo. I would like someone to design a logo for me that has the same style but is unique.

    Thank you everyone participating so far. I see that a few people have found the same piece of clipart as in the example logo I attached in my brief.
    While this looks great I don't my logo to be a replica. I want it to be similar, following the same guidelines, but unique of itself.

    what colors do you want ?
    do you want just as this one black and white ? or do you want something colorful like school emblems split into 4 sections or two ?
    do you want the same exact design ? something slimier ?
    do you want it realistic or cartoon-ish ?

    • 11 years ago

      Probably smooth. There is an example image in the brief. I would like it to follow that style very closely. Thanks.
