Just A Mart?

[Marco]

Trying to come up with a design for this client's Convenience Store.
The store name as shown herein. None of the other items on the design (font, color, except size 6'x8') are set in stone. Any helpful thoughts. Started this one late last night and my brain was just fried up, we'll, sort of still fried .
Regards all. Happy Monday Group.

 

[Mosh]

Is that from a 3 minute design session????

 

[Marco]

Man, Mosh, I promise you felt like hours. All I know that I started at 10pm and hit the sack around 2Am and still dunno if I passed out during. <~~ Anyone ever done this?

 

[J Hill Designs]

why the left justification?

 

[Mosh]

My 4 min 30 sec try....

There are some past threads on this same 7/11 type store and some have come up with some nice designs. Go to Advanced Search and see if you could find them, probably back a few years. Know that Rashid probably wants you to put the cigs and beer on there but it is kind of a no brainer. Maybe "we exchange food stamps for beer and cigs" might read better and bring the extra customers.

[Marco]

Thanks Mosh, Polo, Laserman...
I will work on it; I think my head is back on track.
Forgot to mention, owner did say he wants a real beach image background. Ay yay yay.

lettering over beaches makes me want to puke
For that matter lettering over anything does the same

On isle #2 I thing they have something for upset stomachs. I like a Moon Pie with a RC Cola to settle my stomach.

I picture a store with a sign like that having bars on the windows, bits of paper with lots of staples in all over the front and bums sleeping up against the wall and stains, lots of stains

I'm still trying to figure out wtf a beach has to do with a convenience store in Memphis?

Ditto, none of this makes any sense. Sounds like the client is making the design decisions. Hope his coffee taste better than his sign will look.

When Marleen went to visit Graceland she had to stop and buy some plastic flowers and smokes.

To add further confusion....................

I suspect that the store is in Cleveland, on Memphis Street.

 

[John Butto]

uh oh

That means Marleen is lost! Quick put the magic screen on the TV and draw a map for Marleen to find Tennessee my little WinkeyDinks.

 

[Marlene]

yep John that is exactly what I pictured the store would look like

 

[John Butto]

yep, you give good insight

yep John that is exactly what I pictured the store would look like

Now if Marco could pull the image out of the Memphis Mart owner he could cash in.
