Every element of my logo represents either an interest of me or my personality. The green reflects how calm I am and my connection with what’s around me, Sage is also a shade of green similar to that above and my favorite color. The A has been replaced with a slice of pizza and my name hovers above half a pizza. This is because of my love of pizza, my life revolves around pizza, every time I get hungry I think about pizza and its beautiful cheesy goodness. The color scheme and design structure represent the simplicity of my life and the balance of my family, friends, school, and entertainment.
I sent an email to my classmates for feedback and received some replies:
– Q: Why did you choose the dark green inside of the light green? A: The light green represents crust while the dark green represents the cheese.
– Q: Very good design but, I got confused on the A replacement I thought it was a watermelon instead of a piece of pizza and also why the different shades of green do they mean something or is it just to make it look better. A: I don’t understand how this looks like a watermelon, a watermelon would have a significant color difference (Red and Green) while Pizza has a little color difference between crust and cheese. The different shades of green add depth to the design.
– Q: Everything is good but I don’t get why the pizza is green. A: I explained this in the email.
– Q: I think your design should have more meaning than just you liking pizza. If I were you, I would come up with a deeper meaning. A: Honestly my life is quite boring, but pizza makes it interesting there’s not much more I could do to improve this aspect except add other elements, which in turn would ruin the design.
– Q: Why so plain, why not show a little more emotion and bring people in more? A: My life is fairly simple I wake up, eat, go to school, come home, do homework, have a few hours of fun, and then go to bed. The simplicity of the design represents how plain my life is but the enjoyment of balance and serenity.
There where few changes made to the design as the questions posed challenged only a few similar aspects; meaning and color. To correct these I:
– Altered the color scheme to better display the depth of the design and look more like pizza (crust and cheese).
– Thought deeper into my love of pizza, the design’s structure, and the color green.
I also corrected a few positioning errors within the design.
