hello there, this is my design for the OLP. The logo shows the Spreadshirt process in a very simple way: from the first idea in the head –> through the process of production –> to the finished product with the original idea appearing on it.
I chose a nice blue and a nice red for the logo, but I think it has a strong character in black and white as well. For the text logo I used the simple and massive Helvetica Black font - making a little play with the letter ‘i’ - where the red dot from the logo comes back again.
I also designed 2 posters which show some examples of using these graphics. Hope you’ll like them!
cheers,
Paal

i like your posters. looks artistic and high-value.
really nice work. One of the best here!! The first poster is my favourite. I like the Logo cause it shows a person the idea the printing. Very nice.
i forgot i dont like the i that much. It interupts me in reading the word. But the symbol is one of my favourites here. Really great work.
thanks a lot for the nice reactions!

never abuse MOD targets! thank you
oh, i hope it’s not abusing… well, thanks anyway for the comment - otherwise i would have never thought of it.
but, to be honest, i had a ‘british’ feeling when i was looking at the final colours (or french, or american, etc.), but it didn’t really bother me at all :)
bkohl,
thanks for the comment on the ‘i’, i keep that in mind!

By far my favourite I gave it a 5 before I even realised there were more images. I even like the i. As for abusing MOD symbols I think improving. Not that my first reaction was MOD targets anyway.
I love what you did to the posters as well.
I was going to give up anyway, I,m C**p at logos, now I definetely am.
This should win!
thanks Goatboy, these are really nice things you’re writing!

i’m very enthusiastic to see such an entry. one of the bests here. good work!
nice idea, but the typo must be less black.
You must choose a rounded typo, like the logo is.
I like it !!
Very nice idea !
good morning,
i would rather say it could be, but it shouldn’t be :)
i mean the typo.
your comments make me happy, thanks everyone!
p
WINNER!
pretty much, only thing i miss on this great submission is something that really says ’spread’ after the detailed presented first steps… but would work fine like it is.
dankeschön!
i just wanted to keep it as simple as possible :) actually, i would rather use the black and white versions mainly.
i like it too!
its clever and clean.
but:
i fear that non-designers dont understand the idea.
i dont know if spreadshirt custumomers are allways “designers”, but my mother for example woundnt get the clue, i think (sorry mom!).
maybe too cryptic for a “worldwide” company…
but anyway, very nice!
thanks dan bang for the comment!
i think that it is not a tragedy, if someone doesn’t get the idea at first - it would be impossible (and also useless) to create a logo that clearly explains spreadshirt’s profile in every detail. That wouldn’t be a good logo, i guess.
keep it simple!
