Logo Design Brief

My business name is Darren Lange Swimming Academy but many customers know us the DLSA as per our current logo.

I am contemplating a redesign of this logo. First and foremost I would like to see the wording 'Darren Lange Swimming Academy' come back into the logo somehow as our current logo is not descriptive at all.

While currently I envisage a stylised version of the wording as noted simply being added underneath the DLSA logo, I am open to considering a totally new approach if something really works well.

Our program is a more formal program than most so we tend to stay away from that real kids logo look etc.

You have 2 options within this brief: 1. keep/slight modernize our current logo AND add the wording 'Daren Lange Swimming Academy' in a seamless way or 2. Come up with a new approach to our logo that has clear ties to the current logo i.e. colours (gold/yellow, navy/blue) and the dolphin.

Please remember, I am also considering maintaining the current DLSA logo but adding the Darren Lange Swimming Academy wording in a seamless fashion. Maybe you can 'tweak' the current logo and add the wording in an exciting way or maybe you see it all in a different way altogether... I'm open to anything.


Please message me if you require a more detail explanation.

Cheers,

DL

Hi designers!


Thank you so much to everyone who has submitted their designs so far. Many designs have had me thinking of different options as to what we could eventually come up with.

After thinking about things for a few days I've been able to clarify what I am looking for a bit more and have updated the brief with a few more specifics.

Thanks again... The designs coming in are challenging my views of what has been a 20 year old logo that I came up with in Corel Draw with very limited talent and imagination. :)

Project Deadline Extended
Reason: My sincere apologies for having to extend this deadline. I have 2 design projects on the go at the moment and are getting some great submissions, but with being so busy on the lead up to Christmas I haven't been able to give the entries the consideration they deserve. I will extend by seven days and wok to get feedback to everyone over the next 24 hours. Cheers, Darren Lange
