We like these fonts, colors and style
What we liked about the images provided below: symbolism of world, although we now know we do not want literal representation of this in our logo; indication of inclusiveness / belonging, color What we did not like: Lack of diversity in images of people, except for color; No women, children, people of different abilities, ages, etc. We had even thought of the possibility of a more symbolic image/design What we need in our logo: Text should be sans serif for accessibility reasons. If you split the organization name split it at NETWORKS since we are known by many of our customers as "Networks". It should be larger than "for Training and Development, Inc." but this needs to be readable as well even on a business card. It is okay to use two lines. Yellow is great as a color on the image, or to highlight, but yellows and oranges can be difficult to see when used for text.

Our design will be used on
(Web)  (Print Media)  (Mugs & Tshirts) 

Additional Info Added Aug 18, 2019
#395 – Can we see this with our colors (see our logos in the brief) and a sans serif font. Capitalize the T, D, and I in the second line. If possible make the second line slightly larger so it is readable.

#333 – same thing for second line – a little more readable. I like the all caps that were used.

Incorporating the tagline "Envisioning a world..." is not necessary. In a logo the text would probably be too small to be understood anyway. Hope this helps.


Do not use the tagline in the logo - it is too small.


If you split the name of the organization, please split after Networks. (Our customers commonly shorten our name to Networks, and know us as such.)


I am attaching our current logo and asking that you use these colors if possible since folks recognize this.


We now know we prefer a more abstract representation of our worldwide work rather than literal.


Text should be sans serif as this is more accessible, and a large part of our customer base experience various disabilities.


We would like to see what might come up if emphasis was placed on dreams and opportunities. (avoid bubbles or childlike images). There are images we like, but tended to be too cutesy.


Would want text under image, so image can be larger, and larger "Networks" than "for Training and Development, Inc."


If you are going to use Networks in a different color, use our blue or make it black like the rest of the lettering.
