  • can anyone suggest a layout for a pizza place?

    Posted by Jill Marie Welsh on 20 March 2005 at 20:40

    A new pizza shop/Italian bakery/coffee house is coming to town.
    Someone purchased an old storefront and has renovated it.
    They want the style of their logo to have a 1950’s feel.
    It’s not just your average pizza joint.
    Design a fascia sign for them. The name is:

    Pie in the Sky

    I think I’ve gathered cobwebs.

    Hi Jill/everyone,
    I’m lovin’ watching the assignments, sadly not enough time to participate at
    the moment.

    How about each entry naming the fonts used and clip art collection used if
    possible where they can be obtained? As I’d like to start using some of
    these in my own work especially after seeing them applied to projects.

    Thanks, Peter

    Had to do some research on retro 50’s signs lastnight to give me an idea of 50-ish looking signs … 😕 .. not that it helped :lol1: These are good assignments Jill, I enjoyed doing the last one aswell 😉

    Edit: just noticed Adrian & I have the same taste in pizza images :lol1:

    Oh & fonts used: Fiftieshollow, AmazoneBT, Dutch801XbdIt BT
    The pizza image was from Microsoft (word) clipart 😀

    Alot of them are from http://www.letterheadfonts.com Pete, Jill posted up a few links a while back. The fonts cost a few quid, but its well worth it, you can do some smart stuff with them! 😀

    Cheers, Dewi
