I have finished my first concept. I have done four design variations of this concept. Let me explain my thoughts behind the design.
The company is dealing with money. It needs to give the client a feeling of stability which I have represented by using the symbol in the logo. I feel the logo needs to be very simple (something that you will remember easily) yet strong and impressionable, which I feel I have created.
Don't like it triangular. Try using the color in 119 with less of a gradient used in 118. Have most of it the darker blue instead of the lighter blue as used in 118.. Thanks. Great write up too...
