Hey /gd/ !
first, sorry for my bad english, i'm from Belgium and all i know i've learned it with my irish father in law.
I started this year a graphics formation but the teachers are very bad and can't teach great things...
Recently, a friend of mine who want to open a new restaurants asked me if i could design a logo for his futur restaurant, so i've tried to do something correct but all i do is shitty..
anyone here have an idea of something that could be correct ?!
his restaurant will be based on "Eureka" and Horeca (wich mean Hostel-restaurant-Cafe here), his decoration will be based on fiding idea...
the only things i've made so far is this shitty logo.
is there a way to make it look better, or anybody here have better design idea... he will probably take it as logo for year and it will be ridiculous if he keep the actual work.

the problem is that we don't like giving away 'ideas' since they're ours. that being said if you show us a few sketches (always start with pen and paper) we could tell you which one could look better or what to change, etc.
anyways if you can't think of anything try mind mapping:

and also avoid using that font it's not bad just way overused.

this.
Ok, you know it's shitty so this is a first step.
Of the most importance is to keep it simple, not funny. A light bulb is a very bad idea, even more with knives and forks and all that.
Find a great font, that says the kind of restaurant it will be (ask what would be the dress code for example, you'll have an idea).
Secondly, the draw is not necessary, but if you have to make one, as I said, don't overdo it.
Finally, check this for inspiration: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Archimedean_spiral

Not op, but could you care to explain why it is a very bad idea? It may be a good idea if you do it well. I won't bother reading the rest, because clearly you're narrow minded.
I like this, but i think you have do more studies maybe not use the light... Think in somenthing like old school. Like this fonts in the image. Try to do more drawings in free hand before test in computer. And access the www.logopond.com I think it might help you. Sorry about my english, and good luck!

Now back to tumblr bitch

Remember that incandescent lightbulbs are now obsolete technology. LED lights will come in all shapes. Will a light bulb be recognizable in ten years?

I would just say that I think it's a great start; ignore haters. If you stay with something along these lines perhaps use the bulb as an exclamation point (Horeca!) also... yellow bulb? You need to imply illumination and the grey bulb doesn't do it for me.
