Thank you for your great logo idea and kind comment. Though we think this logo is really fine, we'd also like to see another version of this logo like one with a little more sharp and intelligent air. We hope to see another great job from you!
Thank you for great works! As you see, we are highly evaluating #15. Could you make #15 a bit wider(not taller)? If you cannot quite catch what I mean, please feel free to ask to confirm it. Thank you!
#15 further developed. Thanks for your great feedback. I've been working a bit more on this concept and give you this version with a better form factor (wider, lower, and bolder – more harmonic). I think the "foster" idea is very clear now, and the shades and gradients make the logo pop out which makes it eye-catching and memorable.
The negative space within the symbol forms a circular form/sphere that symbolizes the new talent discovered and fostered by SOOL. Active negative space in a logo is always a good eye-catcher.
