Logo for a family-oriented annual conference

Adventures in Homeschooling

No

We are an annual gathering of homeschooling families for learning and social interaction. We want our logo to represent the fun and celebratory aspect of our conference, and provide a quick visual image of our event.

Here's a quick description of our event: "So much more than just a conference - it’s a celebration, a party, a statewide gathering of homeschoolers and their families for learning, friendship, support, and fun!

Featuring some of the best known speakers in the homeschooling and parenting community, HSC’s annual conference is a place to explore, relax, learn and find time to meet with new friends. It’s a place where everything you need to know about homeschooling is under one roof for an entire weekend!"

Abstract

We have used just about every color over the past few years. We would like a 2 or more color version for print and web and a single color version for screening. Purple, green, red, orange are favored colors but again, we do not want to limit your creativity. Absolutely NO primary color designs (red, yellow, blue). We have to incorporate, somehow, our umbrella organization's logo, which can either be blue and yellow or can be used as black, ghosted, or as a solid color. Our attendees are hippy/earthy types - corporate doesn't do it here.

not sure

This is a logo for our annual conference, which is called "Adventures in Homeschooling". The conference is presented by the Homeschool Association of California. All of this is very, very wordy. We want a graphic to represent us (can be abstract) and/or some way to make the ADVENTURES IN HOMESCHOOLING wording more compact and interesting, but simple.

We are NOT a school oriented group - no primary colors, no apples, no books, no school-type stuff. We are not a school, we do not represent any of the things that school represents. No houses either - we homeschool but not in our houses exclusively.

We are a vibrant, celebratory event - with a range of ages from babies to grandparents, with ALOT of teens. Our attendees are environmentally conscious, earthy, active, involved with their kids, our teens are quite diverse from nerdy to artsy and edge-y. We have a good sense of humor. We want to seem professional and branded but without any corporate stuffiness.

We suggest that you look at our current website - we want to keep the current layout design but are happy to change the colors as needed. We will eventually be using your design in the banner on top somehow (a new project will be added for that) . Our website is at www.hscconference.com. Check out the photos for a sense of what we are like and please don't hesitate to shoot us questions.

I'm uploading our umbrella organization's logo for incorporation - it has to somehow be there, but not prominently. It can be used without the bottom text if need be.

    limitless, Thanks again for the revisions. Can you put 22 and 21 into one draft (like #13) so we can move to finalize? Thanks!!

    Hi Limitless, Thanks for the quick revisions! Liking #14 better than #15, the idea sounded better in theory. Maybe we could try putting the roof a little further back and to the left? Want to show that the people are out of the house, not in it. Can you make "Conference" a little bit bigger and can we also see #7 with "Conference" as well? Can we see both in a b/w version? Thanks!

    limitless, Thank you for the changes! For #5 We are wondering, is there a way to make the roof appear to be more behind the people like they are outside - and also add back the chimney. Also, can we see a version with the text on the right side of the graphic, as well as a black only version? Finally, can you add the word Conference to the bottom of the text smaller, perhaps the size of the "in". Thank you!

    limitless, #6 - Can we bring the person on the right back to the orange color instead of blue? Can you show a 2nd version without the chimney on the roof part - just straight edges instead? Thanks!!

    limitless, Looking great! Can we switch the green person and plum person color-wise? (plum on the larger one). Can we see a version with blue for the roof as well? Like the font change and the plum! Thanks!

    Re: #4 I said: 3. Make Adventures and Homeschooling more equal - maybe same font size. Maybe put "Adventures" on a line, "in" as smaller font under it, and "Homeschooling" under that. The point is that "Adventures" shouldn't stand out more than "Homeschooling".

    Like Design #4 - here are changes I'd like to see in Design #4 1. There should be an "s" on the end of Adventures. 2. Lower case "i" in the word "in." 3. Make Adventures and Homeschooling more equal - maybe same font size. 4. Take mortarboard off of the person in the middle. 5. Use the plum color of the person on the left as the color for the person in the middle. We like that color. 6. Use a version of that plum color for the text. 7. Switch the green person color for the green you used in the other design entry. 8. Keep the triangle/house as it is with the blue. 9. Can we see it with the gradient in the graphic fading light to darker the way the other designs do?

    limitless, Thank you for submitting your designs. Please add the "S" to the end of Adventures on your designs. (#3, #4) Please read the notes we just added below this message. We'd really prefer to incorporate the graphic and words together into a cohesive design somehow. I like the colors that you've used so far. Thanks again!

    Hi Designers, Adding a few ideas that may help spur more designs from you. We could have the triangle - not a bell - for the HSC connection. We could have "Adventures in Homeschooling" -- we can do without the HSC or Homeschool Association of Caliofrnia -- etc. for sure. Maybe the "A" in Adventures can be the triangle in some way Maybe the logo being the words "Adventures in Homeschooling" with a small abstract symbol within the "A". Just some thoughts, since we're 4 days in with only 3 designs and we're starting to feel like we've asked for something impossible. Thank you again everyone!

    Attention Designers!! MycroBurst permits you to submit unlimited designs with unlimited variations. However, if you are providing 2 or 3 different color versions of the same logo in one draft, please make sure that if the particular draft gets finalized, each color version should be separated before you will send the final files. Thanks, MB/LDG/LS Team
