Logo Design Brief

We want a brand and name that instantly states what we are looking to do :

refinance your mortgage & save you money

We require a mortgage refinancing brand that encompasses all of the below goals in a manner that is :

hipster
vintage
confident
simple
fresh
warm
retro

The Brand will be used primarily in D.M and Social Media

good examples of strong brand, look & feel we like would be at the following websites...

http://mortgagesupply.co.nz/

& If you google : "hipster brands" that should give you an idea of what we are looking at for a retro cool feel in the mortgage space.

http://monocle.com/magazine/

(we have not finalized the exact name of the brand yet - & would appreciate your help)

however the most likely is
Logo : Switch
TagLine : The Mortgage Improvement Project

What we do -
"improve your mortgage / save you money"
Our team contacts clients through either D.M, Social Media, or Outbound calling....

Our Brand Print lists the following motto's

To be New Zealand’s leading mortgage improvement service, putting the most money back into the pockets of Kiwis.

No Cost

To be an ongoing Project…..Every year we want to put the most dollars back into the pockets of New Zealanders.

Updates

Hey Designers

- I have updated the design brief for the final time now that we have had a few first cuts from all of you.
- the outline should now be very specific and clear around the look & feel & I will not make any further adjustments.
Thanks so much for everyone's effort, look forward to making a decision on the final design soon.
Regards
Leigh
