Description: WIP. For a fashion design company called Purple Pinecone. I know the mark is very trite considering the company name, but this is the direction the client wanted to move in.

Loving this one Joe!

lecart Sep. 29 '10

yeah, i agree, with a nice type this will end up solid.

milou Sep. 29 '10

Joey is back on track, eh?

JoePrince Sep. 29 '10

Ivan, Roko, Stelian, Milosz...thank you all! Working on pairing it with type, thinking something thin. Cheers!

I wouldn't say the mark is trite, especially because the name is so 'specific', it's really quite apt.

logoboom Sep. 29 '10

I don't think it trite either. It's a fresh artistic execution of a literal object. Design at its essence.

hyperborea Sep. 29 '10

%5E agree with prev. comments. no trite.*only one thing maby: the paricle on the top seems somehow unbalanced, probably oversized a little bit.*or that's just me?

sbj Sep. 29 '10

mark is perfect..

saawan Sep. 30 '10

Nice, Joe!

JoePrince Sep. 30 '10

I really appreciate the feedback from everyone. It's still a WIP so I'm working on fine-tuning the mark.*@hyperborea, you're right. I'm working on that top piece :)**Updating with type soon.

JoePrince Sep. 30 '10

Updated with type. Cheers!

Rokac Sep. 30 '10

NICE!*

JoePrince Sep. 30 '10

Thanks Roko. Wondering if there's a better option for the type layout...was thinking splitting the type with horizontal and putting the mark between.

Rokac Sep. 30 '10

Hmm, you can try with that but I think this layout will work best. Also, did you try with gray color for the type? *Black seems a bit %22strong%22...

JoePrince Sep. 30 '10

%5EUpdated, thanks :)

Rokac Sep. 30 '10

Dig it a lot JP!

raja Oct. 01 '10

I agree with Hayes - it's not trite. It's so peculiar with it's name and your interpretation of a pine cone.**However, your composition makes this much akin to a high-tech/software logo simply because that is what those type of companies have been doing for the last 10 years. 'particle' based logo to the left of 'sci-fi' font.**In design, and especially fashion, when you have something very good, you accentuate it. In this case, it's the stylized pine cone**

javaap Oct. 01 '10

Me likes it Joe nicely done!

JoePrince Oct. 02 '10

You all are too kind, thank you very much!*@Raja, I agree with your statement. I had a different rendition with the mark in between the type...might switch back to that and see. Cheers!

thomas Oct. 05 '10

Nice logo Joe. Some comments on type though. Some letters remain unbalanced comparing to others, too extended I think. /U and /R are slightly too large when you look at for instance /P (for /R) and /O (for /U) and /N looks too much condensed (comparing with /E). I think fixing these (peeky :)) details could slighlty improved the overall design.

JoePrince Oct. 05 '10

Thanks a lot for your suggestions, Thomas. I always appreciate hearing feedback from you. I'll take a look at those characters and make some updates. Cheers!
