Hi rspbluewater,

Here's my idea. Two "S"s being the initials for Shadow Stone and the for the Flex part - which I consider very important! - comes from the fact that the to "S" fit together like two puzzle pieces, so flexibility is present.

My concept plays off of the word shadow in your name and incorporates the shape of the building in your complex. I look forward to your thoughts on this logo design, thanks.

Good work everyone! I like what baiskee has done with the two s's in the box idea. Can you eliminate the double line at the top so that is more of a continuous "S" around the side? I would like the box to the left of the company name to see how that looks. I will have the current logo up soon for review but dont feel you have to use the old design in any way. I also like Guetizo's design. Can we try to incorporate an outline of some buildings into the logo to see how that looks. I plan to extend the contest another week due to the holidays. Thanks.

The company name should read: Shadow Stone Flex, LLC

Hi rspbluewater,

Thanks for the feedback.
Here's my 2nd idea based on your previous comments.
I played with the "S" letter so that it can gives the idea of buildings in a tridimensional/perspective way. Again, flexibility was on my mid.

Baiskee - I think I like your original design better than my idea, it had a more uniform flow to it. Maybe if you used a thinner line at the top it would look better. Guetizo - I like the concept but am looking for a more trimmer version. Not too keen on the font either, I would like somthing more modern and sharper. Cincytodd - I think the shadow effect used in the lettering is making the logo less striking than I would like.

Can we try just a line in the shape of some buildings over and to the left of the logo? Or perhaps a mirror effect over some water? Keep them comming, these are great!

Btw, what do you mean thinner line at the top?

[baiskee]

The double line at the top of the box. You made it into a thick line. I like your new design can you smoothe the buildings to be more like warehousese not skyscrapers? Thanks...

[cincytodd]

Here is my second entry that represents the structure of your buildings and incorporates the "S" for Shadow and Stone in the symbol. The brown building and the gray shadow underneath. Thanks.

[rspbluewater]

Baiskee - I really like your new post with the buildings. Can you make it more low profile buildings instead of highrises? I like the font you chose for the "box" logo much better! Thanks
