Farah & WillyLogo Design Contest

It would be also great to have a specific "SIGN", as you see we are open for any ideas and hope that you will help us to find the final result

We just discussed and came to the result that we like to have a symbol, emblem and preferably NO NAMES.

Please consider something like a SEAL
Or an EMBLEM (more elegant and timeless)

Thanks for these new drafts. What we are actually looking for is a more abstract form of showing our identity. Perfect would be a combination of a symbol that implies somehow our initials. Some of the proposals already aim in this direction but we are really looking for an emblem for us...

PLEASE NOTE THAT WE HAVE ADDED A NEW ATTACHMENT for further inspiration :-)

Great, this is the right direction! A combination of a nice and specific emblem that resembles our heritage and characteristics in combination with our initials as implied in the first ranked proposals.

Just to have an idea if this is possible: "filigree oriental patterns" in combination of something typical from the "black forest" which are "fir trees" or from Germany like "Oak tree leaves"

as written in the brief: Willy is German and Farah half, German half Turkish

Maybe the above mentioned themes can be combined in the emblem/seal
THANK YOU

In addition some further background information and characteristics about Farah and Willy, which might help you to create the perfect symbol/emblem:

FARAH
She is half German/Turkish, born in Göttingen and lives there again (together with Willy) after some time abroad. Most known symbol for Göttingen is the “Gänseliesl” (see for example: http://www.io-home.org/portfolios/s/showBild?k_User=1752&k_BildDB=51371)

WILLY
He is German from the black forest known for the dark woods (see: http://www.blackforest-and-friends.com/wp-content/uploads/BFAF_Logo_Symbol1.jpg). He grew up in Sankt Blasien and after some time abroad now lives in Göttingen with Farah. Symbol for Sankt Blasien is the “Dom sankt blasien” (see for example: http://www.panoramio.com/photo/42082340).

BOTH
Farah and Willy got to know each other in 2007 in Zurich, Switzerland, where we lived together for 4 years, before moving to Göttingen. Well known symbols for Zurich are the “Zurich lake”, “Zurich mountain view” and “Frauenmünster” (see for example http://www.auctionair.co.uk/ft/Low-Bid-Auction/Lots/Lot-13689.aspx).
