DTConcepts Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 Sorry if this should be in the General Design section, but I didn't want to keep flooding it with concepts. Feel free to move this if you want. Here is the current logo for the Denver Art Museum. Bland, generic, and uninspired imo. Here are my redesigns, using a unique font, and with a logo playing off the building's one-of-a-kind architecture. Simple and modern are what I was going for. What do you think?

Tanny81 Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 I think the third one's the strongest. Sorry with my unfamiliarity with the museum, but is the logo supposed to be a simplified version of the building or something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The second one is the part of the building I used for inspiration. "You ain't gonna learn what you don't wanna know..." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanny81 Posted March 13, 2017 Share Posted March 13, 2017 In that case then I must commend you for the strong logo. I'm a but curious though on what would happen if you incorparated the primary colours of red and yellow into the design on top of the blue? Perhaps making the 'DAM' part each a different colour and then also recolouring the geometric shapes representing the building in this style would help?

Shumway Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Really solid concept. I liked the blue and white one, personally, but I'd make the rectangle at the bottom blue and make the "DAM" white. The multi-colored version isn't bad, but I feel like those colors should be used elsewhere...maybe as highlights on the building? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GearsofTed Posted March 15, 2017 Share Posted March 15, 2017 I have to ask, did you get the inspiration from the DIA logo? It seems strikingly similar to it. Sorry, I used to work there, so that logo is burned into my head for eternity lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is an odd coincidence, though. I'll post a version with more colors in a few days, when I'm not swamped with homework and such. "You ain't gonna learn what you don't wanna know..."

Not a huge update, as I wanted to keep a lot of the blue, but I changed part of the building. I'm not a huge fan, but if you guys are, that's good.
