We need a design right away for our company logo and emblem. This will be simple project as we already have a streamlined idea of what we need it to look like. This needs to communicate sophisticated refinement, and modern clean lines. I am not sure what type of font we need, so just think simple emblem..like that of a record label.
The original idea is to have a circular logo with the letters "ASA" inside..with slight hints to a yin/yang sign, by having the letter "S" in the middle larger, (or uppercase?). The letter "S" can be inside the circle or perhaps the letter "S" could strike through??
This is the acronym for the company called A.rtist S.ounds A.sia, with will be incorporated into the design...perhaps written under the circle?
Heres the breakdown:
1-Logo will be in 2 or 3 colors of black and silver, or maybe metallic grey or white.
2-The logo will consist of a circle with the letters "ASA" inside.
3-The letters can be capital, lowercase or a mixture of both depending on what looks best to us.
4- Black or metallic/grey background...and lettering reverse. Only need to use 2 or 3 colors.
