    How would you put in in black and white

    Posted on Jul 03, 2010 at 5:26 PM

    I like more the second one. The i is more elegant. The typo is cool but I don't know if it is really feminine or itchy.

    First, I should ask you how would you put it in black and white? It's happen that you need a logo in black and white because it is cheaper or else...

    Also I get difficulty with the size of the font . I think that its should be smaller than red, or the same size. The rectangle are not a feminine shape so it destroy all the effort with the typo to put it girlly and isolating all stuff. In fact, it's the same ting with the gray brown but red and black are working.

    What I would do it ois first to resize de typo put all togeter. After that you should have a better look.

    Little things

    Hi Eric, Here is what he could do differently

    Concept 2 is better for me, the red inside the brown looks WEIRD. and the circle on #2 looks classy

    1. I would darken the red up. Not TOO much, It just looks really loud. Red can be either used as a sexy luxurious color, or a really annoying in-your-face-color. I think its more toward the screaming one. So darken that up a bit
    2. I dont see any issues with black and white, It will just take a little bit of effort..
    3. I think you could carry the line of darker color made by NAIL SPA, and carry that into the red, DONT CARRY THE BROWN COLOR, CARRY THE DARKNESS FACTOR; SO THAT YOU HAVE A DARKER RED SQUARE AT THE BOTTOM, Just an idea :D

    Other than that, I feel mostly the same about the previous (first) reviewer. The angles make it less feminine.

    Good luck to you and your partner!

    increase text for "nail spa"

    I really like the logo as a visual. The colour combination is contemporary and groovy.

    I agree that nothing about this logo says "nail spa" except for the small text line. That is not necessarily a bad thing - it could be a point of difference in a crowded market place. I would make "nail spa" more prominent because at first glance I would assume the logo is for a cafe :-)

    Make the text easier to read.

    I'm a 40+ female and I like it. The colors and layout are elegant and classy, yet upbeat and energetic.

    The red dot is a nice dash of quirkiness.

    It is hard to read "its red", but nail spa is OK. You might want to choose a simpler font so the customers can read the name of the salon (or read their business card without reading glasses).
