This brief I was required to make a logo for this years graduates of 2014 at the university of south wales under the theme flourish. My idea behind it was that it fresh, appealing and hip! I also created a couple of poster and flyer ideas in the process too.
After vectorizing, and playing around with my font for the day, this is what I have come up with…I might use it, however I’m a little unsure. What do you think?
I’ve improved the lettering yet again (specialy with the Q).
Now with a little bit of colour I think it works out really well, whether it be on a light or dark background.
