clearlogic consulting professionalsLogo Design Contest

Hello designers, and thank you for submitting some ideas for us to look at.

We are really interested in getting some fresh approaches to our logo. We would also really like to see some ideas that do not use the "block" logo, and that are better at representing what we do. (We help companies and groups operate more effectively by giving them advice and guidance.)

Please feel free to move away from the old shape of our logo. For example, the symbol could go on top or bottom of the "clearlogic" word. We are not afraid to try new colours. What we would like is something simple but unique and that will look good and be easy to read even when the logo is very small.

We would also consider a wordmark alone, without a symbol, if it looks unique enough. The wordmark would have to incorporate the "consulting professionals" phrase as well then.

We appreciate the time you've taken to offer some of your ideas.

Feedback from my colleagues:

-- They want to move away from the red and black theme and use blue and black.
-- Softer lines and shapes are more appealing than hard lines.
-- If using a compass logo, please make sure it looks more like a compass and less like a clock.
-- Maybe build the compass(or other symbol) into the 'clearlogic" word, to make it more of a wordmark, so it doesn't need a separate symbol beside it.

Here are some logos we like, ONLY to give you a better idea of the look and feel we are going fo...we do not have copyright to these images.

#25--I really like how you have integrated the symbol into the word mark.
