Logo Design Brief
I would like a Japanese style font (SIMILAR but not exact to the 'osake' font). The 'osake' font has a Chinese calligraphy brush stroke style to it. One of the meanings for the word 'sento' is combat. There needs to be a 'macron' above the letter 'O' in the word SENTO for proper pronunciation. The word 'gaff' needs to be SMALLER and placed under the word sento. I like the colors red, black, grey and white but feel free to explore other colors. This logo is going to be placed horizontally on a piece of calcutta bamboo (fishing gaff). The diameter size of the calcutta varies from 2'' - 1/2'', so it will be made into relatively small vinyl cut decals. The color of the bamboo varies from a lighter sand color to dark brown.
