We want to make sure the Contour is not just another hanger. Your dry cleaner is giving you wire hangers for free, so we’re making sure that Contour is different, with a level of elegance that evokes emotion. Here’s what’s inspiring us, and what should inspire you for the logo design project:
The Swarm Screen shows great play between its different parts. Even though everything is at 90 degrees, the screen creates a lot of movement in the space it takes up.
We love that the Autoban chair has a playful nature because of its width and curves. Even though all of those elements are constant, the chair has some very elegant profiles.
The A-Stool is a great example of a super simple and clean, yet highly effective, design. Its pure geometries mixed with the tapering of its profile creates a really interesting form that is visually very light.

The link for Contour in this actually points to Contort

Nice inspiration photos by the way. Is there a winner for the tagline yet?

Emotion? For a coat hanger? Please…

Logo voting is not working for Contour.

Man, I really want this website to work, but it is just running horribly right now and there is NO communication from the developers. It’s horrible. You guys need to keep people up to date when things are not going well…
On that note, the contour voting and submissions are completely broken.
