FAQ Entry #447

This is a respond to a previously asked question about the A' Design Award and Competition. The full list of frequently asked questions can be accessed here.

#447: Client Logo is optional in the guideline but it seems it it is required in the online submission form.

Logo is optional to get a preliminary score, however it counts towards presentation score and if your entry is selected as a winner it is required so we push all participants to upload the logo at the first possibility. We suggest you to upload logo now if you could, in any case you would need to have a high resolution logo for press purposes at your disposal all the time, you could use that logo.

Keywords: client logo, logo submission, designer logo, customer logo, design award logo, logo upload, logo

The following questions could be related:

• #30: I've designed a unique artifact for a project. It has no relation to any brand, it has no logotype or trademark. May I join with this design or should I make some new branding for the artifact?
• #157: I have my brand or logo patented in my country only. If I were to show this logo in publications, would this be detrimental to the continued existence of my brand, since it will be exposed at an international level where I have no protection. Would an additional copyright covering 164 countries help ?
• #257: If I fix the client / studio section and input my brand info, would it raise my preliminary score?
• #355: I do not know in which space I shall put my logo to go together with my design award entry?
• #362: I designed the product for a company and the first question is about the use of its logo. Do you need any special document from the company to upload the logo in the entry form? Or could be a document for my use of it?
• #380: I'd like to submit my work for a competition, but I'm not sure if it's eligible. It's a logo that got rejected by the client, therefore not realized. Is that work eligible for a competition or not?
• #495: We do not have a Logo, what do we put to the Logo section of the entry? Can we just leave it blank?
