Logo Designer’s Unused Logos

Jeremy — Fri, 02 Jul 2010 19:05:50 +0000

As promised here are the unused logo design submissions made to JeremyBolton.com. Thanks to all the designers who sent in their designs. It is a great mix of logos that, for various reasons, haven’t been used for any particular project.

It was exciting to see all the submitted logos because I am always inspired by other designers work. I hope you too can find inspiration in every one of the logos too.

These, of course, are logos that were never used, but feel free to click on each designers link to see their full portfolio of work. You will also see I threw in a few of my favorite unused logos from past projects. Again, thanks to all the designers who submitted!

Unused Logos Call For Submissions

Jeremy — Sat, 15 May 2010 18:46:30 +0000

During the logo design process it isn’t uncommon to come up with hundreds of sketches, dozens of designs and, of course, a few gems. But for various reasons a great logo may never see the light of day. If you’re like me you keep those logos filed away, hoping that one day they may fit the needs of another client. But in all honesty how many ice cream shops will you design a logo for? Or a doggy day-care? Or a motorcycle repair shop?

So I have decided it is time to showcase some of those logo design gems for the world to see. Of course I could just show off a few of my unused designs in a quick blog post, but what fun is that? Instead I think it would be much more interesting to showcase unused logo designs from various designers from all over the world. So consider this the official call for submissions of your best unused logo designs.

Guidelines for Submission

Please include your name, business name, and website address
Submissions should be creative and showcase conceptual and/or design principles
Logos must not be currently in use by a business or organization
All logos must be the original work of the designer making the submission
There is no limit to the number of submissions you can make
Images must be submitted in full color on a white background and saved as a JPG

Please send all submissions (including JPG files) to LogoSubmissions@JeremyBolton.com

That’s it. Pretty simple right? I can’t promise every submission will be included. I really want to showcase designs that are well thought out, clever, and/or conceptual. Those submissions that are accepted will have their unused logos in an upcoming blog post along with their name and a link to their website. This is a great way to get you and your work noticed. So pass the word along about the call for submissions and start sending in your greatest unused logo ideas!
