Logo for a Full-service Interactive Agency

ArtSeven is a full-service interactive agency that helps individuals and small businesses deliver on interactive goals and increase profitability.

ArtSeven (ArtSeven, artseven, or ARTSEVEN variations can be used)

Our services include website development, internet marketing, email marketing, search engine optimization, social media marketing, web application development, and information architecture. We tried designing the logo in-house but grew too close to the name and definitely need help from the talented designers around the world. We are looking for a logo that will work well on all of our marketing and branding efforts. Down the road, we may develop a downloadable product and sell it online. We also need web design work done but that'll be a separate contest. (http://www.artseven.com)

- Contemporary, modern, web 2.0, and professional.
- Simplicity is virtue – the logo should not be “too busy.”
- Logo should indicate that this company is an interactive agency. We are considering the use of “Interactive and Web Solutions” or “Internet Development” tag lines. It would be great to have a logo that would work well with and without a tag line.
- As for the symbol, it can be something to do with the number 7 or seven vector objects or seven colors.  Or it doesn’t have to be – we are open to different ideas. In any case, there has to be a meaning behind the symbol. We may use the symbol on its own (e.g. on products, seals, etc.) so it has to be unique and memorable. It should also be minimal and professional. We want folks to say “wow, this logo is simple but brilliant.” Could have a 3D effect.
- The logo has to be vector and preferably designed in Adobe Illustrator.
- We would like a business card and letterhead design to go with the logo.
- Editable source and prepress files should be included for all assets. We’ll purchase the fonts if we don’t already have them.
- A black and white and on black background logo should also be included
- Orange Gray Black, Green Gray Black, or Blue Gray Black color scheme. Again, we are open to ideas.
- Just have fun with it. We are really excited about this!
- I don't know if this is helpful but here are the logos we like:

- No clip art.
- No initials of AS.
- Colors to avoid: dull colors, boring colors, colors hard to reproduce or see on the web and print.
