The
Final Design

The final logo design, based on Concept 03 provides the right sense of freedom and flight with the delicate book pages being raised like a birds wings which nicely represents the progress and potential enlightenment experienced by the students being tutored.

The brand design boasts professionalism and gravitas with its addition of a pale gold and deep navy to the colour palette. The contrasting rose and gentian blue colours work well with the dream-like watercolour gradient and accompanying nostalgic imagery.
