Beyond Napa corporate identity logo design applied to signage.
Creativity within the confines of simplicity can be the most difficult logo designs to develop. But, they can also be the best brand logos if the logo concept is also unique and engaging. The Beyond Napa logo combines two different elements, grapes and a cork screw. The two simple images are integrated by the cork screw which also appears as the stem of the grape vine. This interplay of images creates unique visual interest that holds the eye and communicates both wine and wine accessories. The cork screw / grape vine turning into the grapes implies authentic and pure wines. It also shows the interplay between the two aspects of the company, wine and wine accessories. The logo design also embodies an upscale Deco feel that fits perfectly with the Old Town District and the Plaza in Kansas City.

Timberline Steakhouse and Grill, Beef Logo Design, Restaurant Logo Design
Timberline Steakhouse and Grill offers a casual eating environment where rough wood beams meet concrete floors. On every table sets a galvanized bucket filled with shelled peanuts and customers are encouraged to throw the shells on the floor. The Steakhouse logo is designed to capture that fun and slightly irreverent attitude. Illustrated woodblock type angle and tilt along a mountainous backdrop all in a tree branch wood frame. Our approach was to encapsulate the Timberline attitude and give it a focal point, a context to understand the Timberline experience.

Kansas City Logo Design Critique
The new Kansas City logo is a contradiction of image and theme. The visual mark a skyline while the message / tagline reads, “New Discoveries Daily”. What could be less of a ‘New Discovery” than a skyline logo for a city? The old logo and message was more of a “Discovery”.
The old Kansas City logo put forth two aspects of the city: 1) that Kansas City has more fountains than any city in the world except for Florence, Italy, and 2) it is located in the center, or heart, of the nation. 2) is not of any value because who cares if Kansas City is in the heart of America, it just means it has no mountains or ocean beaches, nothing to promote. But 1) is amazing, who knew that Kansas City has more fountains than any city in the world except for Florence, Italy? That is a Discovery!
OUR SUGGESTION
What if the logo embodied Kansas City’s most surprising discovery and that visual was the image for the logo. Below is a VERY, VERY quick modification of the old logo which makes a fountain an expression of surprise. What do you think?
