Shirt design/typography thing

winther · 02-07-2008, 03:42 PM

Just finished this, and would like some critique. It's a little boring, I think, and the big O's and N's are just copies of each other, so i will have to change that.

I'd like some suggestions to make it better, and also something to make it uniqe maybe, as the concept has probably been seen before a couple of times. Thanks

- It spells NOONA by the way

EDIT: aaand i just realised i didn't put the file up.. Heeere ya goe: http://wintheer.blogspot.com

I am not really sure what the purpose of the shirt is. What is NOONA?

To me this design feels very retro, 1980's like. If that is what you were going for It looks pretty good.

Do the images associated with the word have any meaning? I see bats and some weird creature thing but I don't know what they are supposed to represent. To me every design has a purpose and the imagery used is supposed to explain it, but right now it just seems like a bunch of arbitrary items thrown in with some 3d text.

An explanation of what you are trying to create would be very helpful.

Oh, sorry the post was a little short on information. Noona is a not yet existing clothing brand, and the designs are for shirts.
The post was actually about this design only http://bp2.blogger.com/_DtfZIRt7E_I/...Noona+Typo.png

All of the designs don't actually represent anything, they're just things i've drawn. Non of it is actual graphic design, but i hope it's ok i post them here anyway.

I like the Noona one a lot and the little monster one is nice too but I don't like it on the dull grey background. Maybe try it on a brighter color like a light blue.

I like it, pretty creative but the colors aren't great.

i like it, great concept. try it as two-colors though. maybe get a darker blue for the Z-axis letters, like the tops and sides. does that make sense? it'll make it more readable.
