My suggestion would be that we focus on graphical impression and not color.
I suggest we regard them as black/white/grey graphics and settle on colors afterwards. 6 is shown in red/orange but it could just as easily be a different color. Not liking the color should not exclude voting for the design.
We have a blue/green orange/brown theme going on which can be applied and adjusted to any of those designs.
Ok so we agreed to take the four best ones from the first round and do some more work on them, focusing mostly on the shape and readability in different sizes. If you insist on picking a particular font or colour, keep in mind it has to be opensource and be matching/usable as website colour theme as well.
@bruno_perdigao @chunchk @Moult can you please post your source files for your designs?
You can add your proposals here:

I am sorry. the file is in my work computer and my company has a co worker infected with COVID so no one can go back and I am being quarantine until 23.
I will try to found a way to create it again.
please forget what I said
somehow I replicate it
Added a bit refurbished version from the round 1 in two sizes, as a logo and as a favicon.

@JanF can you do a version at 64x64? I'm concerned about those thin lines.
@duncan added a 64/64px version
And since we seem to be stuck a bit, pinging people who submitted something in the first round (please don't get discouraged even if your design didn't make it to the second round and try a color or size variation of one of those that did, they all still need polishing!)

I think the finalists are good enough. Just pick one!
Added a variant / progression from JanF's take: https://dev.first-draft.xyz/d/s1dd2fl5al/?l=1919&t=69&r=3171&b=601&z=1.2

Hi everyone,
When will the logo of the OSArch be revealed? We have some finalists but when will we choose the winner??
Wanted to see what it looks like on tee shirts for swag!
As a masthead for OSArch, this strikes me as carrying the imagery of a ship that's sailed, and is sailing, towards freedom....for the built environment! The simple play on geometry might be suggestive of how complex systems start from simple notions (shapes), in the AEC industry. The O, the S and the A, are all there as in the original this is derived from. The green colour (earth) or the blue colour (sky, water) may represent the environment that frames and supports the output of the AEC industry.
P.S.
No reason why both colours can't be on the logo:

The idea was that we do a round of polishing of the finalists and then vote for the winner. We haven't set up a deadline yet, since we haven't received any polished variants until recently. I guess we could start a countdown of two weeks soon?
I try to combine the 1st and 2nd popular logos and made some modification
@chunchk I love the reference to the nib of a pen in logo a
So the countdown of two weeks since the last submission is running again here:

You still have about ten days to submit your designs!
Hello Everyone,
I am new to this forum. After reading this discussion I was inspired to do a proposal that is a kind of mix between the finalists, based on the letters with the A representing a backbone, as OS Arch is building the blocks that will support the future development of new architecture...and please sorry if I am coming too late but I hope it helps, feel free to use it ! ...or erase it (I think I messed up with the board a bit)
Sorry I've disappeared from the convo for a bit been busy. @JanF as you started this initiative, would you set some rules and a deadline to finalise?

The clock is still running, there are about four more days. (I'm sticking to the two weeks from the last submission)
I'll collect the designs and set up voting next week, the proposal with most votes wins.
Looks like "i love Paris" somewhat like eiffel towerish.
Ok, I know it was long, but I think it was worth the time. The final poll is up!
https://framadate.org/aSnya7ThhVYSvzpP
I kept the three finalists from the first round that did not receive any update and added the four new modified versions.
Please choose JUST ONE design you believe represents the OSArch community the best. You have three weeks to add your vote, the poll will close on 2nd April. On the April Monthly Meetup we will announce the winner.
