Design Text

GRID METALS

Tagline

Include this tagline in my logo.

Describe who/what this design is about

We are a company that has been in the industry for 25 years and are undergoing a management buyout which means we need to change our name. Although we are in the steel industry the word GRID is nothing to do with steel but rather a combination of the 2 new owners names GRaham & bRIDget. We do not think the logo should contain pictures of grids but are open to suggestions.

Our customer base is small and regular. We see ourselves been known as GRID which I think should be reflected by the word GRID being a lot more dominant in the logo than the word METALS. We do not run adverts so our logo will only be seen on our business cards, emails and stationary.

We favour a simple wordmark logo but are open to an abstract element being added.

We trade in steel (pipe and round bar) and scrap metal. Most of our customers are males either in the corporate world (eg steel producers like Arcelor Mittal) or are steel stockholders which are owner run businesses. The average age of our customers and suppliers is probably 45yrs old.

What colors would you like?

Not sure on the colours. I do like the idea of a simple black and white with a touch of another colour but really open to all ideas. Thinking of 2 or maximum colours.

How many colors do you want in your design?

not sure

Do you have any additional suggestions or ideas?

Do not want a very busy logo or more than 3 colours. In general prefer simple as our target audience is mature.
