Logo Design Brief
looking for:
ABSTRACT, simple, concise, elegant.
Key colours are:
- Sand Colour (light golden - almost white)
- Blue (Either clear sky blue AND / OR turquoise ocean blue)
- incorporate one single set of footprints (one IN FRONT of the other, preferably tracking away, or perhaps horizontally or diagonally across logo)
- image preferably 'stand-alone' and without the need for a boarder.
(But would prefer curved edges if it had to have one.)
- Image to represent (minimalist / abstract) footprints along edge of water, or on a sandy island / beach in tropical ocean etc.
- you can play with possible inclusion /use of other colors, but do also include two of the three colours mentioned.
(attached images for this brief, highlight concepts we like)
