Logo Design Brief
Hi, Australian earthmoving company is looking for a logo design for our business. It is to be used on our stationary and hopefully on our equipment if we can find a bright simple design.
Looking two ways of either the name as " Peter MATTHEWS CONTRACTING " or " PMC " or a combination of both . (possibly too heavy) would consider either graphic designs or equipment graphics such as a bulldozer, excavator or grader to be with the name. We specialize in heavy earthmoving such as above rather than bobcats or shovels etc. If we could get a design suitable to apply to the machines then simpliticy is an asset. Also as most machines are yellow or orange the color needs to be appropriate. Personal favorites are blues, silvers, greys and of course black works. Open to all ideas. Thank you.

Reason: Due to work commitments haven't been able to provide feedback to all designs and need extra time to be fair. Thanks Peter
