Initial thoughts
Today we were handed our first project creative brief for a logo build for Thinq Collaboratory. Looking at the logo, I had some initial thoughts and ideas regarding the design. The spiral made me think of breaking out of the box, breaking the pattern. The colors and feel made me think of calm, eerie, technological, thought provoking. Things that I thought about off hand were aztec, stairs, snails, maze, anything to connect to the spiral.
