GamerLounge Logo Design- $222

Please read the brief through before starting!

We are a company that will promote a chain of upscale console gaming lounges in India. We are looking for a logo that reflects the corporate branding and makes us recognisable by the logo.

The logo should be neat, classy, modern, mature (read not childish, no clipart cartoon,guns, etc) and should not depict violence or negativity in any way.

GamerLounge

GamerLounge Entertainment Networks is a startup that will promote a chain of high end console gaming lounges in India( PS2,PS3,XBOX, PC etc with lcd tv , club experience and a small food court).

These offline realworld lounges will be promoted through a social networking website which will be launched in january 2009. The first lounge is slated to open in April next year.

The target clientele is a 12-30 years of age at heart and is a gamer.

Keeping the above background in mind, we need a logo designed that will reflect our corporate strategy - to bring out the gamer to interact and have fun, form groups, play and take on others.

We are looking for a corporate identity that will be reflected and recognizable by the logo.

For those who feel the prize is too low...

a) we will evaluate the response that we get and maybe declare a bonus accordingly

b) there is a lot of work that is going to come the winners way- website design, website promotion brochure/questionaire design( in Jan), print and ad brochure design for the actual lounge (in Mar) and ongoing contest brochures for the lounge thereafter.

Thus please spend some time understanding what we want to portray and put some thought process into the logo.

I have seen many really talented designers here and hope I get the same response.

I can be contacted through skype, msn , yahoo etc to discuss the project.

Lets get to work now....

- You have to come up with something that includes Gamer Lounge  as well as logos that do not have lettering.
- I like darker shades and the lounge would be low lighted, dark, classy with deeper shades of maroon, blue ...materilas with shimmer
- I am a marketing manager and a coder so please do not depend much on my style cues.
- the logo should reflect class
- the logo should look good on visting cards, website and the actual lounge doors and materials etc.

- Anime, mamga, cliparts
- no xbox logo or start buttons
- no ps3 logo or sony symbols
- no cartoons
- no crosshairs( parents are sensitive about violence)
- I do not want a riot of colours.
