First Critique of 2012

What I took away from my critique as well as Mel's notes was that I have been successful so far in designing, but I really need to start pushing what I've designed and begin to develop my ideas further into my concept. I've begun sketching ideas of what my installation could look like and I will be continuing to work on the sketches of the restaurant (as well as where to place my logo on the restaurant). I have also been searching for paper samples to have for my next critique so I can pass them around and see what everyone thinks about the different paper choices. So for the next critique, I plan to have furthered my restaurant sketches, have physical paper samples, and show my sketches for the ideas for installation. I also plan to meet with Abby this Friday to talk about my project and make sure I'm on a steady progressive pace. Thank you for everyone's feedback!

Logos... woo

Okay so I am going to be posting mass logo sketches here over the next few days.. hopefully i can get some feedback..

Identity & Break Plans

Still just working with the identity trying to hone it down and possible bring in some aspect of nature to make the brand feel like a more natural and healthy brand. I plan to get it down to five options and pick one before I go home for break.
Over break I plan to work at least 8-10 hours a week on my capstone and what I plan to accomplish before returning is a finalized identity, menu board design and folding menu concepts, and the beginning of the sketches of the interior/ exterior of my restaurant as I envision it looking if it were to really exist.

Identity Design

Okay so any feedback or ideas on my logo concepts for right now.. are they working? is it too literal? Were you thinking something more in the direction of food or a more natural logo? Leave me some love... or hate.. i can take it
