Hi Folks! Another great design contest ends with a fantastic logo! Congratulations to Farinato for taking home the crown!! BEAUTIFUL JOB!

Thanks to all of you for participating and sharing your best design ideas for Beat Canteen with us. This contest has been extremely rich with fantastic concepts. Unfortunately we could only pick one logo. But to all of you: GREAT JOB!

Our very special thanks go to Kokonut, TenkenWorks, FGrafic, and Aledelyu! You guys all submitted great concepts and worked closely with us until the end of this contest. Just because we can only place one award does not mean that your fantastic works goes unrecognized. You are the runner-ups and deserve only the best credits! We already look forward to our next contest on this site if you guys are around!

And now from New York: Duck Sauce for everyone ;)

Hi Folks! Just about 12h left - after three weeks of intense competition we're now on the home stretch!

So many new proposals came in over the last 24 hours that we're unfortunately not able to provide detailed comments on all of them. But we certainly review each and every entry and provide a rating for those that are the strongest.

Out of a leading group of designs, Farinato jumped to the front with a very cool design: minimalist, elegant, and sophisticated. BUT: we have until Monday to select a winner, so we encourage you all to get your latest design ideas submitted before the deadline! Great job so far, everybody! Best, CM

And here is final high NRG track for the home stretch:

Hi again!
As I said before, here you have other versions of logo (brown) following your instructions. Currently only in black and white and if you like some (like me were saying) we turn to color. I think there are some very interesting evolution, where "b" is very strong.
I hope your comments. I go to sleep that are 2:50 A.M. I get up at 06:30 A.M. Greetings.

Hi CW. Here are the promised designs.
As the original design liked, I made two variations. The base is the same.
The fork I have removed because it did not fit in any way and for that we have the first design, the brown background that fits perfectly, I think.
As you can see, either of the two designs are very well in small sizes. That was very important. Now we will work on another design (brown) also following your comments. It is very difficult not to use elements that have already been used, it is almost inevitable, but I think I've been faithful to my design and tried to follow your recommendations.
I hope your comments. Greetings.

Hi Folks! A flood of new designs came in today - very exciting!!
The only little caveat is that there is a lot of repetition in the designs and the degree of innovation is slightly down. Anyway - no biggy - we went online today to browse the web for some inspiration to share with you. We found some cool stuff! Now, take it as what it is - just inspiration, not meant to be copied - but for those who are thinking about joining the contest with some alternative directions, this could spark some interesting ideas. (Please note: we purposefully selected very different directions, but each is valid in itself). Speak soon! Best, CM

Hi Folks! Just 3 days left - we're getting to the finish line quickly. And this contest is getting very exciting!

When we held our last contest, we pretty much had an idea of who was in front to grab the crown a few days before the end. In this contest for Beat Canteen though, there are still great opportunities to go for gold! We have a lot of good design, but the magic sparkle can still bring anybody to victory. So - everything goes!

And to keep the energy level high - here is some super sugar candy from the BEAT CANTEEN ;)

Good morning Folks! We got an idea this morning and are wondering if any of you would like to pick this up:

Remember the old light signs in the US for gas stations and DINERS? Something along those lines:
http://www.oldgas.com/forum/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=198980

How about if Beat Canteen was a reinterpretation of this vintage look & feel, but still with a contemporary twist? (Maybe with a bit of Hed Kandi flavor in it? http://picses.eu/keyword/hed%20kandi%202008/ )

It's a nice twist and could be quite unique! Anybody testing this? ;)
We can't wait to sit down at the BEAT CANTEEN disco diner ;)
Best, CM

Hi CM.
First. THE FONT.
I made 6 proposals, the top three totally different and 3 below with a font more similar. Tell me if you like any of them to continue with the design.

Second: THE COLORS.
I used one of the proposals and have tried several bright colors.
If you like any of them, telling me to keep trying new things and slowly get to what you want.

As for the logo, you may see in the earlier version that looks great at 25 x 25 px.

One more thing. What do you think MUSICATESSEN Subtitle? "I change it?

Thanks and I hope your comments for further work in this competition so interesting.

Hi Folks! We're off to the weekend and it's a great start based on all the new designs we got! Many pretty great ideas!

Couple points: If you look at the leading designs right now, then this is definitely going into a direction with emphasis on a B as the icon and some nice font type to go with it. We picked these without the objective of necessarily having a B-icon but just because the looked and felt the best. Why do we say this? Because we want to encourage everybody to try all different sort of things! ;) Don't get stuck on the B as the icon - a design this this may win, but maybe a totally different idea knocks everything all over again. The more, the better! ;)
Second important point: The new icon will live on twitter, facebook, etc. - so it is VERY important that all proposals include the 50x50px version. In fact, we don't even need higher resolution previews. If it all fits into the preview window here on Guerra Creative then it's perfect already!

Great job, folks! CW

Hi guys:
I have uploaded another version following the comments of my first logo, "the record with the fork icon."
In this version I added to the disc and fork the "b". The logo has evolved.
I've also added the icon like twitter or facebook. It looks great.
I think it's similar to what you want, something minimalist and recognition very well.
I hope your comments. Greetings. (Sorry for my English, I hope I explained well).

Hi folks! We provided many comments on the designs that came in over the last day and a half. And only words: GREAT JOB EVERYONE! We really got some very good ideas going now and are very excited about the progress!

As always, please come back to this discussion forum frequently - we will always post updates here and stay in touch. Also, if you have any specific questions then just send us a message - we are happy to help.

And since we commented so much on the minimalistic qualities of the leading logos in this competition, we're providing a more minimal music recommendation tonight ;) Enjoy!

Hi folks! Thanks for getting our contest for BEAT CANTEEN off to such a great start! We love seeing all these different ideas - it's great!

After making a lot of comments on the individual designs, we'd like to share some more direction with all of you to support your design process: A lot of the proposals we received so far are too literal about the overall theme (e.g. frying notes or chef with headphones). While we want something that can be deciphered as a merger of the ideas of "music/beats" and "creating/mixing/cooking something delicious", we would like it to be a lot more refined and elegant - a more intellectual connection of the two.

Also, when it comes to graphic design we are minimalists over here and love very simple but great compositions. Look at the logos of twitter, soundcloud.com, mixcloud.com, audiotool.com, etc. All extremely minimalist and easily recognizable. That's the stuff we love.

And now some treat for your ears ;) Enjoy
