REQ-LOGO Logo Design for Publishing Company

[brianblum]

Type of Contest: LOGO design

Prize: $40.00

Contest End Date & Time: May 13, 2017, 9:00 PM GMT

Size Requirements: Various sizes but must look good very small (1 inch x 1 inch) - see details below

Color Requirements: The logo will be used on a book - on the inside pages and on the spine of the book.

General Requirements: The logo is for a publishing company. It should include a graphic and nicely designed text with the name of the company.

Because it will be on the spine (i.e., the outward facing side) of the book, it ideally should be vertical (with the graphic image above and text below) and look good very small (1 inch x 1 inch, with the possibility it will be only 1/2 inch x 1/2 inch in some cases). It’s possible to make it slightly taller than wider (i.e., 1/2 inch wide and 3/4 inch tall).

An image of several book spines is attached so you can see logos on them. The same logo will also be used at the bottom of the title page of the book. An example from the book “Disrupted” is attached.

Additional Information: The name of company to use is Blue Pepper Press. I’m thinking the graphic should be of a pepper (either a chili pepper or bell pepper is fine) colored blue, with text in a matching font below. If you choose a chili pepper, take care not to make the pepper look obscene!

Logoexpert - what is the inside of the pepper supposed to be? I can't quite figure it out!

Thanks!

Hi @brianblum that was just only a reflection of light to make the logo shinier , i created below without reflection of light

My submission: Logo has a blue pepper shaped as a B so that even if you have to print as white or black it would still be recognizable (see bottom right).

Another try. Icon can be used alone also, yet it will still have meaning

Galalogo: The book/pepper concept is interesting. Could you do a version of this with several changes:
1) It needs to fit on the spine of a book vertically. Could you try it as Blue (first line) Pepper (second line) Press (third line).
2) Could you write it with first letter caps (or all in caps) as in Blue Pepper Press not bluepepperpress?
3) Could you do the design on a plain white background rather than a book page or t-shirt so I can compare it with the other submissions?

To all: the logo will be in color on the spine of the book and on my website. It will be in black and white on the title page of the book.

Great submissions...we're getting close!

Hello,
Here's my try. The negative space hints the silhouette of a reading person.
