I'm being paid to design the logo and interior design for a medical college
So i'll be creating a new logo for this dna research program as well as the images/colors/accents for the entire lab and office space
I've never done a project this big before so i have no idea what to charge
Have any of you done something this big for this big of a client? and what was your compensation? they are asking for a number and i don't know what's reasonable to ask for

How much do you need to be comfortable for a year. Divide by 52 and charge for how many weeks it takes.

that sounds reasonable to me
but i don't really know how many weeks it will take yet, i don't have a deadline for the project to be finished either because they are building a new lab as well
so i don't know how long the construction will take and how much of that will need to happen before the designs are installed

These sounds like details you need to get from them as soon as possible.

Try to find a recent copy of the Graphic Artists Guild Handbook and supplement one of their sample contract breakdowns with rates suited to your cost of living. Tell the client what information you need for the quote.

Are you responsible for a set of working drawings?
Do you know what an "elevation" is?
They gave you the "scope", right?

You sound out of your depth, my brother, but i dont know your design talent, skill set, nor hustle factor....you want a partner?
