Opportunity to redesign logo (which is currently in shape of a lotus flower - see claregaskin.com for current logo).
However, very open to new ideas heading in a different direction, but would like logo to be sophisticated, perhaps incorporating my initials as my business is named Clare Gaskin Interiors. Currently it is focused on residential interiors, but it may expand to hotels and restaurants so I don't want to limit myself.
As mentioned, I am interested in seeing designs that perhaps incorporate my initials or initials plus I of interiors e.g. CGI.
Likewise am happy to just use Clare Gaskin and drop the interiors... or for it all to be used.
As inspiration I like the logo of https://www.juliettravers.com/ with the J and T incorporated as the neck and legs of flamingo. Would be interested if something stylish could be done for my initials CG
Also like Suzyhoodless.com for simplicity of name and Studiowestmaas.com for merged initials
At one stage I had wondered if the C, G and I, could be added together with the C doubling up as the curved bit of the G and the I doubling up as straight bit of G...? But very open to ideas
I'm happy with all colours, but would like the logo to work well in monochrome as well.
Initially, open to all manner of designs before I start zeroing in on my preferred options.
