Here are some links to help you find the CONTRAST in the 'mood' that I am trying to achieve with the logo. I hope these images inspire you...

Remember: GREEK and GOTHIC are FUSED together....

Gothic mood: [Non image link removed]this image and most of the images below it depict the gothic mood... dark, dreary, archetectural etc

Grecian mood: [Non image link removed]this is cultural and historical mood of greece

[Non image link removed]
[Non image link removed]these show the mood of the colours of greek islands, greek skies, greek places

this is the mood for ancient greek goddesses

Are you able to take from these moods and inspirations and combine the GREEK and the GOTHIC and make a logo design which can work well for the idea?

I hope this helps you have a vision of the brand ALEX GALI

It must be a logo which is bold and dramatic filled with strength and power and at the same time contemporary,elegant and sophisticated logo depicting a high-end quality brand.

For example the logo of VERSACE is perfect, it has a circular logo which is very legant and contemporary, inside the circle is the greek key and the head of medusa this is very strong and powerful like a warriors shield (it looks like the shield of Athena goddess!), it is very greek in essence yet it is quite contemporary and gothic because of the dark 'medusa' head, it uses ancient greek mythology in an effective fashion design sophisication, it has the greek key in it too and is quite bold and dramatic as a logo because it is a picture logo with powerful symbol (medusa!). You see how Versace managed to do it? What can you come up with which shows this combination of GREEK and GOTHIC, CONTEMPORARY and SOPHISICATED yet POWERFUL and DRAMATIC?

I hope this helps you too as a suggestion of inspiration!

I don't know why the images did not work.... here they are again...

Right i thought i would help you all again and give you ideas of fashion brand fonts and logo symbols which are inspiring.

Number ONE top of the list is Versace because the medusa head is VERY greek AND gothic at the same time. It is very powerful AND sophisticated at the same tine

Here is a link to the logo: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/7/75/Versace_logo.png

If i find other brands which can inspire you i shall post them here...

More brands

http://www.fashionreview.co.uk/images/mulberry/mulberry-fashion-label-banner.jpg - Mulberry has the mulberry tree/bush

http://modaverano.net/files/2011/03/logotipo-marca-ralph-lauren.jpg - ralph lauren polo has a horse rider playing polo

http://www.brandingmagazine.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/hermeslogo.jpg - hermes is epitome of sophistication and luxury and so has a horse and carriage

http://www.fashionreview.co.uk/images/vivienne-westwood/vivienne-westwood-fashion-label-banner.jpg - Vivienne Westwood has her own unique design which is bold like her! And she uses it on keyrings and bracelets and everything... a very useful design for making accessories to go with clothes!

http://americanmontage.com/drupal/sites/default/files/burberry-logo_0.jpg -burberry has the english night in shining armour symbolising very English brand

You can see that all these brand have a design logo that matches the idea of the company symbolising how british the brand is, how luxurious the brand is, how sporty the brand is etc etc

So I want a logo which is greek and gothic... think helmet of Athena, think the macedonian sun symbol on a shield, think the greek owl, think the story of persephone and hades from the underworld in ancient mythology, think symbols of goddesses, think of your own unique symbol that feels greek and gothic and is from your imagination but still feels powerful! Do your research and be inspired..

I hope this helps.
