These are some real, well-meaning quotes from clients who were attempting to keep the design process on track.
“Are you sure we couldn’t use something that looks kind of like Disney’s logo?”
“Can you add a drop shadow or a cool bevel to the logo?”
“I like this logo, but let me take it home and show my wife. She’s the artist in the family.”
“We’d like to run a contest where our employees come up with the design for our logo.”
“I’d like to be able to see my logo from an airplane.”
“Could you match the logo color to my bedroom walls?”
“I love them all...can you combine concept one and two with the type of concept three?”
“Can we put these logo designs in the Student Union for everyone to vote?“
