What the contest holder asked for

Company or website name: PAN KOPER
Slogan or Tagline: -
Describe your company and organization and target audience: PAN KOPER is a new brand specializing in high-quality equipment and accessories for artistic gymnastics. The brand will initially focus on professional gymnastics leather grips, with plans to expand into grip bags, wristbands, straps and other gymnastics accessories. Our target audience includes competitive and developing artistic gymnasts, particularly children, teenagers and young adults, as well as coaches and gymnastics clubs. The products are intended for people who train regularly and value reliable, functional and well-made gymnastics equipment. PAN KOPER should be perceived as a professional, authentic and distinctive gymnastics brand — created by people who understand the sport and the needs of gymnasts. The brand should combine sporting character, quality craftsmanship and durability, while remaining modern and recognizable. The long-term goal is to build PAN KOPER into a recognizable specialist brand within the artistic gymnastics community, with a visual identity that can be used consistently across grips, bags, straps, patches, packaging and other products.
The design should have the following: The logo should be built around the PAN KOPER name and a recognizable artistic gymnastics symbol. My preferred direction is a gymnastics ring combined with a gymnast’s hand wearing a professional leather gymnastics grip and holding the ring. I will attach my existing concept as a visual reference. It should be treated as a starting point, not as artwork that must simply be copied. The gymnastics grip is particularly important and should be technically believable. It must look like a real professional men’s artistic gymnastics grip, not a glove or generic CrossFit/fitness hand protector. The two middle fingers should pass naturally through the two finger holes in the leather grip. The leather should run naturally from the wrist across the palm toward the fingers. If a dowel/roller is shown, it should be small and subtle. I currently prefer a traditional wrist fastening with two small buckles. The brand name PAN KOPER should be clearly visible and highly legible. I prefer strong, bold typography, similar in character to the reference concept, with a clear natural space between PAN and KOPER. The main logo should have a strong, clean and compact composition and must remain recognizable when reproduced at very small sizes. A critical application is a one-colour version approximately Ø22 mm, which will be used to manufacture a metal stamp/die for embossing the logo directly into leather gymnastics grips. Therefore, please avoid very thin lines, tiny details, complex shading or elements that may disappear or merge during embossing. The identity should also be adaptable to a full-colour version for printing on gymnastics grip bags and packaging, as well as a 30 × 30 mm square patch/label for straps, bags and other accessories. I would also like the final identity to include a standalone symbol/icon and a standalone PAN KOPER wordmark for applications where the complete logo cannot be used. I am open to professional simplification and creative improvements. The goal is not to reproduce my preliminary concept exactly, but to create a distinctive, professional and technically usable PAN KOPER identity.

This design should not have this in the entries: The design should NOT include: <ul data-start="231" data-end="1163"><li data-section-id="1ut1ouv" data-start="231" data-end="298"> generic fitness, CrossFit, bodybuilding or weightlifting imagery; </li><li data-section-id="1xql2gp" data-start="301" data-end="396"> a hand protector that looks like a glove rather than a real artistic gymnastics leather grip; </li><li data-section-id="1tejy11" data-start="399" data-end="525"> anatomically incorrect placement of the fingers — the two middle fingers must pass through the two finger holes of the grip; </li><li data-section-id="11f83az" data-start="528" data-end="571"> an oversized or unrealistic dowel/roller; </li><li data-section-id="1b7emnm" data-start="574" data-end="704"> overly detailed illustration, thin lines or tiny elements that will disappear when the logo is embossed at approximately Ø22 mm; </li><li data-section-id="14jyegi" data-start="707" data-end="807"> gradients, shadows, photographic effects or other effects that are essential for the logo to work; </li><li data-section-id="cze39d" data-start="810" data-end="856"> overly decorative or complicated typography; </li><li data-section-id="2hzklz" data-start="859" data-end="914"> a generic sports-club, team or event-logo appearance; </li><li data-section-id="185n9y8" data-start="917" data-end="1100"> additional wording such as “Gymnastics”, “Gymnastics Grips”, “Leather Grips” or “Skóry Gimnastyczne” as part of the main logo. The brand name should remain simply PAN KOPER; </li><li data-section-id="cg81oj" data-start="1103" data-end="1161"> stock icons, clip-art or generic pre-made logo elements. </li></ul> Please avoid unnecessary complexity. The logo should remain strong, distinctive and recognizable even in a one-colour version at approximately 22 mm.

What style of logo would you like?: [object Object], [object Object], [object Object]
Colors to use in the design: The logo must work perfectly in black and white / one colour, as the primary application will be embossing on natural leather. For the colour version, I am open to the designer’s professional recommendations. I prefer a restrained, premium and sporty colour palette rather than bright or overly colourful combinations. Natural leather tones, black, dark brown, deep navy, burgundy or other sophisticated colours may be explored. The colour version should complement the brand, but the logo must never depend on colour to remain recognizable.

Briefly describe your contest: Create a distinctive and professional logo for PAN KOPER, a new brand of artistic gymnastics equipment and accessories. The logo should combine the PAN KOPER name with a recognizable gymnastics symbol based on a gymnast’s hand wearing a leather grip and holding a gymnastics ring. The design must be clean, strong and suitable for very small applications, especially a Ø22 mm embossing on leather grips.
