Original

The original design gave my team and I inspiration to have a logo with art deco elements, which is continued throughout other promotional and brand materials.

Clients’ Requirements:

  • Name within the logo

  • Comedy and tragedy masks

  • Square logo

  • Colored options

  • Ticket mockup

  • Newsletter mockup

Proposed Logo

Our main goal for this logo was to explore unique placements of the masks, and more importantly, how they can be unique to our client. We purposefuly drew the masks with a side profile and facing away from one another so that they created a “W” shape to represent The Winterset Stage.

We crreated two different sets of the logo, one with extra deatailing of the curtain, and one without. We did this so the simpler logo could be used for smaller scaled material, making it readable. While the logo with more details could be used for larger scaled material.
