Hello Friends,

I am once again looking for some talented & creative designers to help me out with a hotel logo design. We need an eye catching design that quickly creates brand awareness.

The hotel name is Heart of Manteo Motor Lodge. So, ideally, we would have the words "Heart of Manteo" on top line... then some space... and the words "Motor Lodge" below.

Heart of Manteo

Motor Lodge

This is a hotel in the Outer Banks NC. The winning logo will be used by our hotel group for branding, marketing & all communication.

I look forward to your creative ideas & contributions. Best of luck.

Note: I will be checking this thread every 3-4 hours and offer my comments/suggestions. We may choose 2 winners based on the responses.

 

Here's a concept idea to help get the contest started
(I illustrated a landmark peer along with the geographical map of the area in the branding)

Feedback Appreciated​

 

Looks great Eric. Can we have something without the landmark, if it's okay with you? That gives us options.

 

Thanks for the feedback. The area the lodge will be in is a popular charter fishing spot and one of the top 5 off-shore catches is striped sea-bass. With that in mind, I re-illustrated the design to include a charter boat and a striped bass.

Feedback appreciated​

 

Looks awesome Eric. That's a thoughtful idea. Very nice. Thanks Eric.

 

Maximinus, I liked your idea. It's an interesting twist. My management will also be going through these designs and I will keep updating as I get feedback from them too. Good stuff.

 

my participation.

 

Looks lovely Altruist. If you don't mind, is there any way we could have the hearts in the middle rather than on top? And one version having the hearts to the left? Thanks

 

BrandSac, that's an interesting idea. I liked the 2nd version with the white BG. Is there any way we could have the words Heart of Manteo in blue rather than yellow? We want the words to stand out. I feel the yellows are a bit pale.

 

i appreciate your feedback, and i will be glad to get more.

 

Thanks BrandSac, the 2nd variation looks nice.

 

On top the cut off top of a heart, forming the M, for Manteo. Rotated a bit to make it more dynamic. The sun on the left side of the M/heart combined with the top circle creates a reference to the wheel of a motocycle.

Colour palette is soft and warm/inviting, open to change depending on your preferences.

 

DirkS, that is a fascinating concept. I don't want to bother you, but, is there any way we can add some ocean waves under the sun? Thanks.

 

... while waiting for some feedback about colour scheme and fonts
What is the audience of your brand? Elder people, couples or families?
Best Regards

 

Sure, not a problem. 2 variations below:

Thanks DirkS, appreciate it. Beautiful work.

 

Thank you for the kind words. Nice contest and good luck. If you want some additional tweaks or colour variations feel free to ask!

 

Maximinus that looks awesome!! This is getting exciting. Thank you so much.

 

logoexpert, very very impressive. My management is really happy with all your contributions. We are going through each one of these submissions and will offer some insights soon.

Thanks,

 

That looks clean BagusDesign. Although, the HOM word would be confusing. Maybe a heart with some waves around it or inside it to replace the HOM?
