Logo Design Brief

Gated Shores Interactive is a new offshore web development company based in Toronto, Canada launching immediately. We require a company logo that will appear on our website and all associated marketing collateral. Web design work is likely to follow.

Two things set us apart: 1) we target primarily small creative agencies; and 2) the high quality of our offshore developers. Through years of working with large full-service interactive agencies, we have developed a roster of top notch offshore developers. Now we are bringing big agency web development services to small creative agencies at highly competitive rates. Our company name takes our clients' perspective and includes the word "gated" as a metaphor for how this resource has been traditionally inaccessible to smaller agencies.

Another point of distinction is our experience working with and for creative agencies so servicing this sector and the people in it is our forte.

Updates

A quick update that the word "interactive" should appear in smaller proportion to the words "gated shores" in our company name.

Many of the designs that have come back feel a bit too masculine or corporate for me. We're not necessarily lookng for a feminine design, but we are looking for softer edges, colors and fonts.

Target Market(s)

We will serve a niche segment of small creative agencies (Canada initially) that require top quality outsourced web development at highly competitive rates. Many have never tried offshore developmnt or have had bad experiences and turn to local free lancers that are either too expensive or unable to deliver the quality desired.
