All Roads Lead to Cedar Room

Describe your company and organization and target audience

I have a small but mighty neighborhood dive bar (Think Cheers). (The logo we've used for many years is attached.). We have an abundance of TVs, thus are also a pseudo sports bar. We serve stiff drinks at a reasonable price and our proud that Yelp has designated us as a Dive Bar. One does not set out to build a new bar and call it a dive bar, it is a classification that only comes after decades of successful business. We are open 20 hours a day, 365 days a year. On Friday October 13, 2017 we will celebrate 55 years as a family owned business. October 12, 1962 was the formal opening of the bar, I still have one of the invitations. We do not serve food, however I have counters and a sink in one corner where we often have potluck, or people just bring food in. It's always complimentary. I had a guy who works for Gallop tell me one time: "You know, my job at Gallop is analyzing numbers of large companies and converting the numbers to a written report. I've been studying your place for sometime as I cannot pinpoint why you're so successful. However, I will say this: The closest thing I can come to as your business model is you are very similar to a Church." With the potlucks, and one-big-happy-family atmosphere, I believe he is right.

The design should have the following

Because for the most part everyone knows each other and do things together, they often start at the Cedar Room, do their thing then return after. One of my favorite customers, years ago, came up with the tag line: "All Roads Lead To Cedar Room," and ever since I've had it percolating in my brain, but have never been able to lock into a concept or design. I have an existing logo that everyone knows, but we are about to launch a new app and I thought this would be a good time to include a fresh, eye-catching, logo.

This logo will be used for

• Online (Website, facebook etc.)
• Print (business cards, letterheads, brochures etc.)
• Merchandise (mugs, t-shirts etc.)
• Signs (including shops, billboards etc.)
• Television/screen

This design should not have this in the entries

Cannot think of anything it should not have.

What style of logo would you like?

Colors to use in the design

Our signs out front are emerald green, inside the bar we have red tile and cedar walls. Beyond that I'll leave it to your interpretation as it will be your art.
