"Critique by Creating." - Michelangelo

That being said, I look at the sign designs as SCHEMATIC designs, something you would present at the first meeting with a client. I think it must have been difficult for the sign designers to all come up with ideas because of the lack of a formal and definitive program. And overall, I think there are some strong concepts.

I do wish that The Garden Club considered a design charette, where a COMMUNITY OF IDEAS could be developed, which also would demonstrate how incredible our neighborhood is when we all work together. There is a lot of talent here. It would have been amazing to tap in to that collectively instead of competitively. I almost feel sorry for the poor soul who wins, because there will be a lot of sideline comments. I will try to support any winning design. I am also glad to see the rose go bye-bye.

Actually let me rephrase what I just said. I am not a fan of any whole design that has been submitted. I do like a lot of the elements that were used but each one has something I would like to change. That's me being a picky designer I guess.

I hate to say it but I am not a fan of any of the sign designs. I should have submitted some of my own designs that incorporated the original logo. Oh well.
