Dear All Designers,

Thank you for your designs to date.  Contrary to our brief we have received quite a number of designs with health/human services cues including stylised human forms, hearts, ECG hearts graphs/waves etc.  Please note that we will be eliminating all of these designs.  In addition, we have received designs with Australian cues, e.g. maps of Australia, sydney opera house, etc - we will also be eliminating these designs.

To maximise your chance of winning, please ensure your designs do not include anything related to Australia or health/human services - thank you!

We'd be interested to receive more designs without the stylised 'AHA' but with some kind of abstract shape accompanying the 'AHA Consulting' name.  Please refer to the links below for kinds of thing we have in mind....

In the next link, it's the shapes in the lower half which are more in keeping with what we like...

It appears that our favourite fonts appear to be those that look clean and modern with no serifs.  Also none where 'A' is done as two legs with a rounded top and a cross bar - prefer the traditional three straight line type 'A's

Project Deadline Extended
Reason: Because of the large number of submissions we require additional time to eliminate designs down to a shortlist before selecting a winner and to request changes to shortlisted designs to ready them for the final selection process. Thank you for your understanding.

Thank you for all of the wonderful submissions - we have now selected a short-list of four and have eliminated all other submissions.  We are working with the short-listed designers to view a few variations and once we have these will be selecting the winner, second and third place.

Thanks again - apologies we have not bee nable to provide specific feedback to all of you however this has not been possible given the large number of submission received.
