italycs
Italycs is is the virtual newspaper where to talk about our own Italy: places, art, culture, celebrations, events, community, experiences and lifestyles, but also a virtual public square where Italians and foreign people meet each other to debate and discover the true and often unknown Italy.
Italycs is all about Italy, it refers to any meaning the word has with a clear reference to Italian history, its people, its language, its culture and identity.
Italycs is also a way to emphasize a text with a well known handwriting style which in Italy is also used by columnists to comment on a specific topic.
Lovers of Italy, who want to tell, discover, discuss and experience the real Italian identity
We are looking for a wide use logo (web, marketing collateral, merchandising, business cards, shop signs). Please make sure you post your best work for the different use just mentioned before.
Minor iterations (e.g. same logo in black&white version o reverse order colours o different background colours) can be represented in the same work. We will then select the winning logo also on the base of different minor iterations above.
In the case of major iterations you may want to publish different works as they will clearly be considered as different logos.
The logo will summarize the World’s perception about Italy, its lifestyle, its beauties and local way of life.
It should remind quality, professionalism, seriousness, reputation, and of course passion for Italy
Colours/Font: up to you, just make sure the logo will not appear too heavy and keep things simple and stylish.
The preferred formats for the final design are vector file: Adobe Illustrator (AI), postscript file (EPS) or portable document format (PDF) , 300 DPI or better.
Should you have any question, please ask. We will be more than happy to answer.
Enjoy our contest!
