Patrik,
Thanks for your comments. We really appreciate the effort thus far.
More company background... We manufacture and sell surgical devices for hand surgery. To be specific, we have a surgical blade that mounts to an arthroscope (like the one used to scope a shoulder or knee) which is used to cut tissue through a small incision. Our surgical tool addresses carpal and cubital tunnel syndrome. We also have devices that treat wrist fractures.
We don't know exactly what we're looking for in a logo. We would like something that is trendy or hip comparative to our competitors (see links below) but also has a professional level to it. It needs to be clean, precise and we'd like some graphic element involved. We feel the blade concept is not the right direction and would ask everyone to move away from it... We didn't see anything that grabbed our immediate attention. Focus of surgery, and more specifically surgery of the hand.
Check out our competitor's logos below. We'd like to create a hip logo (more exciting than our competitors) almost like a video game or action sports company, but retain the professional medical look. Please include a graphic element - could relate to the hand, surgery or be completely obscure.
Once we see something that grabs us, we'll be sure to get everyone on the right track.
Thanks for your efforts and please review the links below....
