Hi there. I am looking for a logo design for a new startup company.
The company name is "Oakmont Sands".
The design we had in mind is a round logo incorporating an oak tree, on top of sand dunes. But we will welcome any new ideas or interpretations of that.
We are looking for a fairly simple graphic, bold and easily recognisable.
To give a bit of background, the name is about an Oak Tree growing out of Sand, somewhere that it would not normally grow.
It is a British Insurance company (hence Old English Oak), with ties in the Middle East (hence Sands). But does international business also so I don't want anything region specific, I just wanted to give a bit of background.
The company name is not important to include in the design, I would prefer to keep the logo and text separate.
If you are using a Tree or leaves in the design, make sure it looks like an oak tree or is generic, (just not something that is clearly a pine or spruce tree!).
Please feel free to ask any questions for clarification on anything.
Many thanks in advance for your submissions,
Kind Regards,
Phil.
***update***
Thanks for all the designs so far. They are all good but not quite what I am looking for. I have uploaded some images I have found.
I am looking for a simple Icon logo. Preferably circular.
I'd like quite a simple shape. I think tree branches work better than an outline of a leafy tree.
There is a logo I've attached that has a similar rounded shape tree with branches. I think there are too many branches in this logo but it give you an idea of what I was thinking. I'd like something with a similar branch shapes to the ice icon (simple, chunky). Maybe a cross between the two.
Also, I need to incorporate sand dunes into the logo. I've done a very bad sketch of what I had in mind.
The attached files are just to give you an idea. Please don't just copy them exactly ^^
**please do not use my sketch as a template, my drawing skills are terrible, it is just to give you an idea of composition**
Thanks again I look forward to your submission.
Kind Regards,
Phil.
