CHICAGO 2016. this is a continuation from the logo round 1 blog. i explored a few more techniques and popped out a few more concepts. this time was nowhere near (close to) a million thumbnails, but i feel i have some solid direction now. round 3 will be difficult narrowing the comps down, yet enlightening because i'll do color studies to give the logo a better sense of feeling rather than the current "rainbow" colors taken from the rings...
in round 2 i focused on 3 types of logos drawn from round 1: wind-related, torch flame/skyline, and architecture (millennium park's Jay Pritzker Pavilion, in particular). i experimented with deconstructivism for the first time and with watercolor and cut paper — a technique i never would have used for a logo, maybe only a background for a brochure or something, and i actually think they came out the best. mainly because the colors were soft and that made the marks feel more real.
