Blue Dragonfly Coaching Center

Tagline

Let Your Dreams Take Flight

Include this tagline in my logo.

Yes

Describe who/what this design is about

I am seeking a logo that conveys transformation and freedom. I think sharing a little bit about dragonflies will help you develop what I am looking for. Dragonflies spend most of their lives living underwater as mud colored insects that blend into their environment and attack when frightened. Eventually their bodies change and they are forced to leave the water, or die. They shed their skin one final time and discover they have wings - but they are dependent upon the sun to dry them before they can fly. Once dried they never fold their wings again. They are iridescent, reflecting the light wherever they go.

My company is a life-coach business, working from the perspective that we are divine beings having a human experience and the only path to happiness is the inward journey of discovering our authentic selves - and living from that place, which is transformational.

The official name of my business is: Blue Dragonfly Coaching Center, LLC. I am uncertain if I need all of that in the logo, legally, or if Blue Dragonfly Coaching would suffice.

I would LOVE a logo that captures the sense of possibility, freedom, soaring, and ultimately transformation.

Thank you.

What colors would you like?

The dragonfly needs to be blue, as iridescent and brilliant as possible. I'm uncertain of the other colors but tend to think simple and natural would be good. I am open to brighter colors but need to see them first.

How many colors do you want in your design?

not sure

Do you have any additional suggestions or ideas?

I kind of see a dragonfly soaring upward from a pond. I am really open to your ideas! I have seen a dragonfly logo for another coaching company that had a dragonfly emerging from a heart, which was really cool - but already taken. I think simple is better than cluttered.

Thank you to all participants. I had no idea how many beautiful logos I would receive when I entered this contest. I truly appreciate all of your hard work and talent. I have a very difficult decision to make. There are several designs that are right at the top. Best of luck to everyone on future projects!

174: Can you keep everything the same in this - except use the original dragonfly?

172: My favorite of your submissions. Had hoped for a font between this one and your last - but I know time is running out. I like this dragonfly. Thank you for showing me what it would like on stationary.

180: I like this. If time, can you rotate the circle so the dragonfly has an opening near her head - she'll fly out. And add a dragonfly near the end that is soaring, upward.

176: Thank you for showing me that your design will work on both black and white. I love 174 - but with the original dragonfly. If possible, and time permits. I'd like a still less loopy font - but LOVE your work with light.

172: Outstanding work with light. I do need to see how it'll look on a light background, please. And if you could tip the nose of the dragonfly in flight so that it is going up _ I'd like that.

#166, 168 I do like the green. I think we could tweak it to match a bit better, to be more of a teal - but with time running out it gives me a great idea of the final revision. Very nice work. Thank you.

158: If possible, enlarge the dragonfly in flight to match size of the dragonfly in the circle. Move the dragonfly in flight much closer to the circle. Instead of the loopy line of flight - try a gentle swirl from the circle to wherever to put the dragonfly. I want to convey the concept of moving from captivity to freedom. And Please, I'd like to see this on light background. Thanks!

157 - I love so many things about this. Still too loopy of a font. Can you try the same dragonfly within the circle, now soaring somewhere near the end - to reflect how it has broken through captivity? Not sure if I like the trail of flight in this design. Sooooo close. Thanks

#155 - nice. Like the dragonfly & the font for 'Blue Dragonfly'. 'Coaching Center' needs something ... different font, different color? Not sure ...

154 - MUCH nicer font. Can you try the dragonfly back a bit? So it's still soaring, but balanced nicely. Thanks

#146: Like the new dragonfly. Would like to see 'Blue' above 'Dragonfly', a less 'thick' font - but still a script. (Please avoid too loopy - looking for professional yet feminine.) I do like that you break out of the mold of 2 lines for your design. Another idea would be to keep the break between 'blue' and 'dragonfly' but extend the 'flight path' so it is soaring more toward the end than the middle. Thanks

#132: Thank you for your new designs - you've been at this from the beginning. I like the water, reflection, wings and your dragonfly. The font seems too blocky or symetrical ... not sure what it is. Also wondering what it would be like to add a dragonfly near the end that is soaring upward - keeping the one in front. Thank you

#145 - cool new concept, the hand feels 'too bulky', but I like the message. #133, 117 - Like parts of both of these a lot. I like the wings of 133 and the flight of 117. Wondering if you could try a slightly different font for 'coaching center'. You've held in there through lots of revisions. Thank you 119 - I still like the simple elegance and grace of this. #143,144 - Like the new feature of a star. We're getting to the end ... thank you to everyone who has participated! I look forward to these final revisions.

#119: Would it be possible to see this image with the dragonfly tail starting above the 'e' in blue? Keep everything the same, just wondering what it would like to move the dragonfly a bit. Thanks! #123: Cool wings! Really in awe of all the beauty and creativity that has/is being shown. Thank you.

84-87: Really beautiful. May I see 'Coaching Center' in slightly bigger print? 75,76: Also excellent. May I see it with a white background - like in your earlier versions? And also the same blue font of your earlier versions. I love this design.
