The logos we have here, are all for a club night which will be launching in june. The style of the music played will be percussion mixed with DJ's. I wanted to keep the logo simple and clean. I prefer to do everything in black and white to start off with, though I've always preferred solid black for a logo. Please crit away! ...I know not all of these logo's work. This is by far not my best work...I'm going through a rough patch creativity wise and I need some input on these!
a.) This logo has the focus of the tree shaped symbol inbetween the two words. The Symbol was made out of musical notes, (treble clef, double clef, 8th notes, 16th notes, alto clef, Bass clef etc..) slight variations on the concept shown here aswell. This design I wanted to create a symbol that housed percussion symbols,(as thats one of the themes of the club) but in doing so, creating a slick, fun, symmetric piece combined with the font to create a more contemporary feel to it. the "Ministry of sound" comes to mind.
b.) This logo I wanted to be more playful. The letters "T" and "h" are formed into the logo, the "h" doubling up as a house symbol.
c.) These are more straight forward Ideas, nothing too fancy, they get the name of threehouse across, but not what the threehouse does,. the variation of the piece I tried to build in a music note fixed at the bottom of the "T".
d.) This one yet again is purely playful, using geometric shapes all created in illustrator,the font type usually associated with electro dance music. the variation on this is using a doubled up Bass clef symbol to show the number "3".
e.) This logo is a bit less obvious (have to work that out) of a "T" and "H" the lines leading up into the letters is the top half of the ladder you'd use getting into the treehouse. Im using positive and negative space to my advantage here. Using the name as the rungs on the ladder. the shape of the "T" and "H" closely remembled the opening area into the treehouse I had as a child.
f+g.) The first one is using the alto clef as the "3" and the "House" as a funky style font. The piece below shows the name "The three house" reversed and doubled, to give it the form of a tree. The round shapes around it symbolize the decks and mixer.
h.) This one seems to be the one that my friends like..Im not sure though. One the symbolic shape of the house, there are lots of people throwing their hands in the air, (dancing) which also looks like the branches of a tree. I think the font is wrong which I need to fix.
i.) I'm not sure why I included these, theres something about it I like..though wouldnt be in my top three.
j.) This here is a font I was trying to create from scratch...I know its not working but does anyone suggest how I might make it better?. its mainly just using the music notes as the negative space to the letters.
I know not all of these work like I mentioned, but I thought I'd put them all up, incase someone saw something good in one design that I could try work with etc.
all constructive critism welcome...
