Logo Design Brief
I need a logo design for Carolian Capital LLC ("Carolian"). Carolian is a newly formed investment/buyout firm operating as a small family office or independent sponsor (depending on the deal). Carolian looks to buy small or lower middle-market businesses, especially those with a strong management team. The logo will help establish credibility and be used on business cards, letterhead, and a website. It will be seen by investment bankers and business owners considering selling their businesses to Carolian. I chose Carolian Capital as the name because a Carolian is a graduate of St. Charles Preparatory School in Columbus, Ohio (and more generally, a follow of St. Charles Borromeo). The school's mascot is a cardinal (the bird, not a member of the clergy), so there may be an opportunity to include that in the logo, though it isn't a requirement.
