can anyone help with this logo please?

[Matt Hards]

is there no other option i.e

John Healy
Wall and Floor Tiling

[Cheryl Tissington]

Hi Matt,
no, unfortunately he’s called his business John Healy Tiling.

His name and 4 tiles are how it is on his business card.

[Debbie Astle]

Cheryl,

Could you not just change the tag line to read something like…

for walls & floors

so you do away with repeating the word

[Cheryl Tissington]

Debbie,

the client has business cards that he wants to copy the format and wording off. 🙄

I’m not too worried about duplicating the word tiling providing I can make it look a bit different to the header.

He’s wants to use this font style for his name, but is open to suggestion for the other.

Thanks,
Cheryl 🙂

[Phill Fenton]

Cheryl – I think it would look better if you put a white oultine around the letters "Jo" to make them stand out from the 4 tiles in the background. Also allow some good size margins all around.

[Cheryl Tissington]

Thanks Phill,

I’ve done what you’ve suggested.?

I’m still not sure about the "wall & floor tiling" font.

I’ve taken the blue tile off the T & M too.

What about using a different weight Eurostile, and moving the text down
to the bottom, similar to this?

Cheers,
Jamie.

This is how I would do it using your design but altering the positions and sizes

I’d take Jamie’s layout and reverse the position of the numbers and subcopy.
By placing the subcopy in a panel, it makes the redundant "tiling" look better.
(I just got a new computer and have yet to install my sign/design software on it or I’d help)
Love…..Jill

Did you think of maybe jazzing up the tile icon that you have. Here’s a quick idea that I drew up in about 5 minutes (sorry I couldn’t spend more time playing with it. I’m at work right now). It of course would need some work to be finalized, but it’s just an idea to play with. I remodeled my bathroom similar to this.

do you need the word Tiling twice ?

in the company name yes… but what about "Walls & Floors" instead ?

anyone mock that up to see what it might look like ?

just an idea ? – my first contribution to this kind of thing – be gentle !!!! :lol1:

anyone mock that up to see what it might look like ? IMO it looks wrong with “tiling” twice

[Andy Gorman]

Tell him the whole thing is bloody horrible and he needs a new layout.

Suggest "Wall & Floor Specialist" to avoid using "Tiling" twice. They know he’s a tiler by his name, why repeat it 😕

[Martin Pearson]

I like Jamies idea of just changing the lines about a bit. The first lot of business cards he had done probably won’t last him that long and the van will be with him for years.

You could also just change the wording a little to say " Tiling for walls & Floors"

[Jill Marie Welsh]

Andy, that looks damn nice!
Clever way of switching things around so that they look "right"!
Love….Jill

[Marcella Ross]

ooh I like Andy’s design, that’s classy!
I also like Jamies too looks well balanced and the reverse text panel along the bottom is spot on.

[Derek Heron]

i like andys as well.
reminds me of the mike stevens mastering layout book cover
as marcella said classy.

derek

[Simon Strom]

Yeah Andy, I think that looks really good the way you’ve set it. I really like the font choice and typesetting. Cheers. I do agree about not using the word tiling twice. I think specialist, as suggested by Frank & Warren, is a better fit for the tag line. Everybody here have such good ideas! 😀

[Cheryl Tissington]

Thanks everyone for you input.

Appreciate all your help.

Andy……Nice !

Unfortunately the guy is a complete numpty and won’t change his font and tile design. 🙄

Thanks again
Cheryl 🙂

[Jamie Wood]

That’s a pity, because I think Andy’s is miles better than his original one.

[Bill McMurtry]

Yes that’s a shame because I think Andy’s design is a real winner too. Perhaps you could try hitting your client over the head with it 🙄 😀

[Cheryl Tissington]

Thanks Phill

Cheryl x 🙂

I’m pleased you found that to be useful.

It was done following the formula for "Natural Layout" as described in Mike Stevens book. 😀

[Martin Pearson]

Phill, is that where A equals 15% of shortest axis and B equals 17% of horizontal axis?
