Logo Design Brief
UPDATED DESIGN REQUEST: We need a sign design for a small inn near the beach in Carlsbad, California. Please see the attached file and model VERY CLOSELY the sign after the road sign in the file. You may use the same font style as in the sign, or use a different 1950s-style font.
It should read:
Historic
Carlsbad
'52
You may keep the same colors or experiment with the colors light blue and sand.
The business is retro-themed to 1952 and decorated in a mid-century style. The sign should draw on both the beach theme and the look of that time period. The inn itself is painted in the color scheme to match the beach: deep sky blue, creamy sand color, and white. The sign may draw on these colors or may use the colors of the sign in the attached file.
