Daminion Software (http://daminion.net)
We produce and distribute a digital asset management solution for companies and Graphic and Web Designers. The software can be used across local networks by Teams to manage, search and share a wide variety of file formats of image, audio, video and document files.
We are looking for a kind of symbolic image that concisely describes the concept and the functionality of digital asset management in the network.
We imagined roughly that in the center should be placed a sort of database container (possibly a round cylinder with our company logo as a cover) surrounded by three notebooks that are symbolically connected via network technology with the database. On the surface of the Cylinder there should be placed all sorts of file type symbols like TIF, Jpeg, BMP, Kamera-RAW, AI, InDesign, PDF, EPS, XML, TXT, DOC, CDR, WAV, MP3, OGG, WMV, MP4, AVI, and so on…
The Notebook Screens should be inclined towards the viewer because Screenshots of the program will be placed there later on.
The design should be as clear, straightforward, classy, businesslike and not playful act. It should also act as realistically as possible with lights and shadows, preferably 3D rendering.
As primary colors blue / cyan, gray and accents of orange should be used.
