Logo Design Brief
Southern Shipwrights is a new Australian business that services, maintains and repairs high end cruising and racing boats. We need a logo to reflect our quality work.
The name Southern Shipwrights comes from our location as Australians compared to the rest of the world, and also our location within Australia based in Melbourne, Australia's south east. The reference to a compass bearing is relevant to the yachting and maritime community which regularly uses compass bearings for navigation and wind direction. This lends itself to the use of a compass for our logo, however we want a modern take on this timeless image.
Attached is our current logo however we feel it is time to modernise/professionalise our identity.
