Logo Design Brief

XI Effect, LLC is a company that provides products related to giving and acts of kindness. We want to reflect the ripple effect that an act of kindness can have on humanity. For instance, when you perform an act of kindness, it becomes contagious and spreads.

Ripple effect is the key here. We tried to prototype an example (see attachment). Our prototype was created using Adobe Photoshop. It is not a good image for print because the swirl and fonts are not sharp - they bleed and the swirl grays out. We need a solid, high quality image for print, as well as something that is identifiable. The logo does not have to match our prototype - it is provided as an example only, but we like the idea of showing a ripple effect, like when a pebble is thrown into water and you see the ripples spreading. We would like to see options that match our prototype as high quality. We would like to see new designs as alternatives as well.

The colors in the attached prototype are colors we would like to see. The words use hex #666699 (RGB = R:102, G:102, B:153). The font used for "xi" is called Pristina - we are not sure if this is a high quality font for printing, so we'll want this or something similar. The word "effect" should be in a different font than the word "xi". We need "xi" to be prominent and "effect" to be much smaller. If a new font set is created for this logo, we will need the font file as well as the logo. We will own all copyrights to both if selected as winning design.

Please provide in one of the following formats: Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Illustrator, or vector.

Updates

Thank you to all designers for your great submissions so far!

We updated the brief with clarification on the font for "xi" and "effect". We would like the "xi" to be very prominent and "effect" to be smaller.

Thank you!
