Hi, here is my initial entry for your consideration. I'm not sure that this is what you're looking for, but I had an idea and ran with it. I thought about how a capital T and capital L are nearly the same shape, rotated (the T would merely need to be missing the right arm). So, I made a symmetric lettermark for TL, and I reversed it out of a circle to create this effect. The essentially amorphous shapes in the upper right and lower left, in two shades of blue, can represent twin lakes. In addition, the combination of the T and L creates a space between the letters, and a roman numeral two (as in twin) is also formed. Thanks for your consideration!
We really like your mark and the thinking behind it, but it's perhaps too upscale in its present form. Our products will be modestly priced vs. our competition. That said, we really like the idea of the two blues representing the Twin Lakes, and the almost 'yin/yang' feel to your logo. Is there another font/treatment that feels more rugged or "outdoorsy"?
Thanks again, and we're looking forward to your response.
