The Spreadshirt open logo competition I wrote about earlier is now closed. After 7 weeks and 2800 entries they have narrowed it down to 15 finalists. I'm really happy to say that I have one and a half entries in the final!

Labelheads, the concept I came up with on week 3 is one of them. Spreadshirt is a company that lets its users customize their own clothing. So I tried to capture that essence with a customizable logo. They can always keep their logo fresh by changing it depending on the season and/or occasion.

The second one was a collaboration between me and my friend and talented designer/photographer Shahin. It's called Molecular Goodness. The three core values of Spreadshirt are represented by three basic shapes or molecules, that can be combined to form any shape (like a big "S", a t-shirt, or a tag).

The final winner will be chosen by Spreadshirt next week, and in order to help them make their decision they have made an online survey where you can see all the 15 finalists and vote for the best. If you're interested check it out and vote for your favourite (by which I mean us :D ).

I've neglected my blog far too long, and I don't feel too good about that. I'm going to gradually start writing again, and this might be a good start. I've been reading some interaction design books for the past several months and this little quote resonated with me deeply:

Never show a design approach that you’re not happy with; stakeholders
just might like it.
