This was a fun one. A wonderful client from Bonaire in the Netherland Antilles contacted me for a logo for her new company. Taking my inspiration from the island’s habitat as well as recognizing that this was for a newly-established financial institution, I designed the below. Muted colors are out when dealing with Bonaire. Other design elements included the sage leaf (representing new beginnings and a bow to the company name) and the water wave at the bottom. The outside image is in a square format to represent strength, stability and power. They loved it.
