Before you make a comment just take 15 seconds to read this please. Some stuff I would love to change but hand is being forced.

1. The sale price has to be obnoxious red and bigger or bolder.
2. Combo could be reworded as "seating for 4"
3. I am fucking stuck, not used to designing stuff where the words had to legible and fucking huge compared to decent looking.
4. this is for a retail company looking for new signs that they will put out on the showroom floor this summer.

I am stuck

!!! any suggestion will be taken! My 2 ideas down below, everything and anything can be changed except the logo should stay at the top portion. I know this is complete utter shit im just lookin for advice here.

Maybe use one of the blues for the Combo # thingies instead of black?
The Victoria Bar Set type looks a bit odd also. Maybe adjust the kerning.
And put some sort of strike through the Reg prices.
The Sale prices could be made to look more like those fat SALE stickers.

I think a background is missing there, no not a big image.. but some kind of graphic with a low low low opacity..

And I agree with luxbrand... Sale stickers would work great there

Chemicalviper · 05-02-2008, 19:36

Point noted about the background, kerning and tracking I will adjust after main design is done. Ill see if I can figure something out for background, maybe even a texture.

What do you guys mean by SALE stickers?

Chemicalviper · 05-02-2008, 19:39

O and which design is being leaned more towards? 1 or 2

life_in_hifi · 07-02-2008, 17:01

leaning toward #2.
but the bkgrnd needs something, like duarte said. maybe a low opacity texture or something.

Sale stickers as in those tacky ones you see in the stores when there is a big sale on. If you're going to make your sale price red you might as well go all out and make it jump off the page.

Finalized design

"Combo shown"

Maybe it's just me but I can't really see the combo that is supposed to be shown.

Thats because you are not in the store heh. This sign is on the table. It shows that table with chairs. On the other side it says..... hold on ill just upload it

Chemicalviper · 26-02-2008, 13:26

So here is the otherside. The store sells many options of what you see. (ie can seat more people than shown)

luxbrand · 26-02-2008, 14:42

Ah OK.

Well, despite your worries about the obnoxious red sale type, you seem to have pulled it together quite well. And as always, these type of designs always shine when the final print is seen in person. But try convincing the money men of that, as I am trying to do with my latest project.
