21st Avenue Bicycles Logo Design Challenge


Old Logo: not so fresh.

21st Avenue Bicycles wants a new logo; it is time for something fresh. We are calling on designers and artists in our community to help us come up with something that will be featured in our advertisements, on our website, and will be used as a sticker on every bicycle sold through the shop. Needless to say we hope the winning design will have a ton of exposure. We would not expect you to do this for free; we are going to give the winning designer $100.00, a chrome laptop sleeve, and 10% off everything in the store for the life of the logo. In addition we are interested developing relationships with artists and designers for future collaborative projects.
We want something that looks both retro and modern, with a focus on clean lines and color selection. Icons we have thought about include Mt Hood, Roses, the Columbia Gorge, one of Portland’s Bridges, Fausto Coppi, Vintage Car Racing, Jean Vuarnet to name a few. The logo needs to be visible as a small graphic, something like the size of a 50 cent piece as this will be the size of our bicycle frame stickers. The shape of the graphic is not limited to a circle but all elements need to be visible with inside a 2” by 2” square.
Required Elements; this information needs to be on the logo.

Hey why don't you use a DesignCrowd logo contest?

I would enjoy birthing a website for 21st.

NO SPEC WORK is degrading to designers.

maybe I can have you, and several other bike shops, BUILD ME A NEW BIKE- or submit plans to do so- for free. I will choose who to pay after I have the plans in my possession. Even if I don't use your plan I can, consciously or non-consciously, steal the ideas.

come on...
