hi,
this is strictly opinion.... smiling and every one has a opinion ..


now it looks fine but to me it missing something and i am not quite sure what it is... anyway

1. I think it would help if we knew what kind of grill ie: meat , fish, bbq, or spicy etc..... also what your perception of the the place s about. a fun place . layback friendly place etc....

2. that big black line border not sure i like that, right now i am thinking of a oval shape or just without the black border and tan background ..
3. the font .... it ok but no pizazs .. just an idea..
have Vianda in large letters and grill in small or have then on two seperate overlappinglines .. ilike the idea of curves.. promotes friendliness..

thats all i can think of... at the moment... it early in the morning.. smiling.... and like i said just a opinion ..

Hi, great composition everything Jerry said was spot on, just one thing - Comic Sans, its an awful typeface, maybe experiment with fonts?

The Logo overall gives a french feel to me? Anyway, well done and keep up the good work Big Grin

Why didn't the text I typed in my last post appear, anyway here it is again



Looks great! One thing though, please remove the black border around the chief's hat. If you have to haver the black border, just reduce it's thickness.

I don't know about the empty space in the background. How about putting a blurred image in the background, like the one I attached that indicates the place is fun unless it's a formal meat grill. I say blurred background so it doesn't take the viewers attention of the chief's hat and grilled meat

I like the font as is because it gives a playful fun feeling to the logo unless of course you "imagine" your restaurant to be an expensive classy grill, then put a more formal looking font. In comparison, chill's logo ( a grilled meat restaurant) is all in Commic Sans font and all the letters are the same size

Now I'm hungry with all this talk about food :-)

I'm sorry but I have to disagree, Comic Sans was meant for Microsoft Bob and that is where it should of been left unless being used to advertise a 5 years and under fancy dress party, there are some nice 'playful' typefaces out there that are sophisticated and modern at the same time. It's just my opinion but using Comic Sans screams amateur to me, I agree with the background comment too - would work nicely with the blurred image of a restaurant or scene :)

Thanks a lot all for your advices :)
I modified the logo...I removed the black border and tan background and i made the hat outline lighter so i had to make the hat color darker!..i think it's look better now..plus i changed the font typeface....But i couldn't get how to add blurred background as Netaddict said.

hi,
as far as the background that will always change on you, when you put it on a buxiness card or it going to be on a sign etc... so it not that important,,, to me the white background is fine for now...

the text seem better and more friendlier .. and smitch of class to it... although I keep thinking it needs to be larger maybe the other guys have some thoughts to that..

now viande i found out is a french word for meat... and yet we have a spicy red chili pepper?? to me, is the grill going to be known for spicy food? french food? mexican food?

Actually i selected Viande Grill name randomly, I have no idea about the restaurant or food type because i have no real client :)....I just wanted to make an exam for myself plus i wanna make nice portfolio to get work in the future...but i put a piece of meat..it's mean that this restaurant is for grilled meat...I wanna ask about if the drawing of plat,meat,and chill is ok ?...i think it's need to be more abstract not very direct as i made..?

I'm sorry but it looks less like a chef's hat and more like a tooth. That's why the first though I had was this was a design for a dentist's office or something. I understand that you need to make things simple, but your logo needs a lot of work in order to be a unique, memorable logo.
