Urgent logo design

This is what Velvet Onion Academy was looking for in their logo design

I have an existing logo for my design agency and we're about to launch a dedicated teaching program. I've had a start on it and can't make it work.

I'd like two adaptations - a long strip logo as well as a stacked, almost rectangular one for different applications.

Essential is that the use of the current circular logo remains intact (although will entertain other emblem styles). Please NO onion metaphors.

Given that it's about learning and education, I'm keen to explore varsity styles (please see attached files for directions I like).

Thank you. Read more
