We are currently rebranding and looking for someone to design something cool that embodies our organisation.
We are an IT security consultancy and are looking for something creative that is very different to the tradtional key/padlock/wall type thing. the brief provides good levels of detail of what we are after however if you have something different that may appeal feel free to put it forward
Swarm Logic - formerly GISG
Brief summary
Looking for logo as first part of company re-branding effort.
Brand name
Swarm-logic.com (previously known as GISG – http://www.gisg.com.au)
Description
Swarm-logic offers a range of information security services to medium to large organisations, including banks, government departments, educational institutions. swarm-logic are experts in security architecture and administration.
Our clients are typically senior IT managers, senior IT technical staff and board level management
The logo to be developed is to appeal to the target market; yet have a feeling of being approachable.
This logo will be used as a basis for a website redesign, email footers, business cards, etc so needs to be able to scale across different media and be printed. It should also use colours that we can use as the rest of a website and general corporate look and feel.
If an appropriate logo is designed we are open to the idea of having website design done via the same group/person
We are trying to produce a distinctly different look than traditional IT security providers
Logo which embodies the philosophy of Swarm Logic or Swarm Intelligence – see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swarm_intelligence
Something a bit creative and different – almost a film/advertising/creative industry type logo rather than traditional IT company logo
If you can add a catch phrase or similar that’s an added bonus.
Some ideas/inspirations
individual swarm agents working to a collective purpose

We are looking to receive the logo in vector files - that is, scalable files that will not lose resolution when they are made larger, such as the raw Adobe Illustrator (.ai file) or equivalent, as well as eps, tiff, jpg, gif file formats
anything that looks like a padlock/shield/brick wall unless a very creative interpretation
animated, mascot-style entities
pastels, softness
anything cheesy
anything cartoony
