Or as my daughter read to me “I – birdie heart – love – crown – you”.
Hmmm. I hope it comes across clearer than that. See. it’s the whole “it’s a toilet seat” thing from my graphic design days all over again. We had a wonderfully likable V.P. who came to us from one of those “fun” car companies. He was great fun to work with. Anyways, the theory is, once someone in the room says your logo, or whatever, looks like a “toilet seat” or whatever it may be, then that’s it, EVERYONE sees the toilet seat and that’s all anyone will ever see.
My intention, with the “birdie heart” and the “crown” was simply to add a fun element to the banner and some color. Actually I wanted to just put a large flower shaped punch in the middle of the two blank panels but the punch would not reach the center so I had to go to plan B. I think we all know about plan B’s.
So, what do you think? Is it a toilet seat or not? Should I be taking design direction from an eight-year-old? Or should I just remember how literal they are at this age?
