10-10-2005 Designer's Concepts

Here are the designer's concepts for the logos submitted for the contest:

Entry 18

This logo uses the “G� from “Geronimo� in a square with strong lines, corners, and solid colors. This logo design evokes characteristics like strength and reliability, bedrock adjectives for the Geronimo Project. The Apache Feather is subtly positioned diagonally in the blue field behind the white “G� letter.

Entry 19

This is a new twist on Entry 18. It uses a more unique font and features a vertical, rather than horizontal, layout.

Entry 20

This logo is very bold and identifiable with strong, all-caps lettering and a monochromatic scheme. The 'I' in Geronimo has been replaced by a colorful Apache feather, to incorporate the origins of the Geronimo Project.

Entry 21

A very unique, brush stroke type face sets this logo apart. With a punchy color palate (taken from the original Apache feather), this logo really would give the project a distinctive look. Also, the 'I' in Geronimo has been replaced by the colorful Apache feather, to incorporate the origins of the Geronimo Project.

Entry 22

This bold and timeless logo takes the Geronimo “G� and an exclamation point and places them in a white box. The sharp lines and strong shapes provide an instant impact. It can incorporate a signature color or can easily be monochromatic.
