I am doing some work for a consulting firm that that has been established for some time but is now getting busier by the minute – especially in the strategic advisory, advocacy and safety space. The current ‘logo’ for want of a better description was created to try and match a business card that the Director liked, however, it is now not really serving the purpose to be able to use across varying platforms. I have included an example below of the ‘logo’ (central) and then the black, grey and white style that was preferred at the time.
The consultancy covers a range of strategic advisory, advocacy, policy development, with a big focus on risk management and legal compliance in in both Government and Industry.
The logo needs to be used across varying platforms including:
• Website
• Linkedin
• Email
• Presentations
• Letterhead
• Flyers
We would like the logo to have a professional, bold, eyecatching look (if that is even a thing), but that also grabs your attention as well. The consultancy is often referred to as GSC so would be great to capture the letters into the logo in a clever way that could perhaps form the logo itself. I don't want to neccessarily be obvious that it is G.S.C so hoping it can be used / combined into a clever 'icon'. The Director keeps referring to Yves Saint Laurant for want of a better example, but I think there are more creative ways nowadays. I think that he would be happy to stick with the black, gun metal, white colours, however open to feedback on this, as I also need it to be reversed to sit on a website with a black background.
You previously created a logo for my husband which captured his consultancy name using letters so hoping you can do this also
