In the brief you can read some important info.
Firmaflex (and Floraflex) / tag: dé firma voor flexkrachten
We deliver manpower for labour-intensive industries.
Mainly large companies who experience peaks and immediately need more labour intensive workers use our services. We operate in an industry which is strictly regulated, so being trustworthy and solid is very important.
What we want is a logo for Firmaflex and Floraflex. Firmaflex is the leading logo, Floraflex is a small business unit of the company. But both logo's should resemble each other or be the same with different colours. Symbols of the logo's can be slightly different. Also a designs for business cards/stationery is appreciated!
Note: below we give you some suggestions of what we like. These are only guidelines. Don't let our ideas constrain your work. If you think you have a better idea, always post your designs.
Fonts
http://99designs.com/contests/2914/…ies/172074 same for this one
Desired looks
Business to business. A solid and trustworthy company.
Colours
No pastels, but strong colors. We like dark blue!!
Symbol
You can try to make a "man" or another nice shape from the letter "X". As you saw in the logo Olympia, there is a circle. Try to bring the circle trough the X Maybe the contours of the X can be orange.
Our other business unit
Floraflex should have logo which is look a like with Firmaflex. However, with Floraflex we target the "green" clients. You can think of green houses, flower auctions et cetera.
Our company name and our tag:
Our name means the following translated to English:
'Firma' = firm in dutch. Flex = as in flexible.
So we say that we are thé firm for flexworkers. That's also our tag: "dé firma voor flexkrachten"
Using the tag is up to you!
Further directons:
- a dynamic logo is ok
- clean, but not too clean (after all we are no non profit or governmental organization)
- The name should be spelled as a whole. Don't seperate firma and flex. All capitals could be nice.
- Nice colours, we prefer primary colours (dark blue, red, green, orange et cetera)
- WOW-effect
- business
- Logo should attract the attention in a positive way
- Logo should be scalable, since we will use it on our working clothes, vans et cetera.
- OUTPUT IN ADOBE !!!!
