Logo Design for New ART GALLERY & Art Consulting Business

Gallery Asie

Logo is for a new Art Gallery and Art Consulting Business that will specialise in Contemporary Art from Asia.

The logo will be used on gallery signage, our website, business cards, stationery and marketing materials.

SOME BACKGROUND DETAILS:

After having lived and worked across Asia for the last 20 years in the banking industry, I'm turning my passion for art into a business. I am launching (with a partner) an art gallery and art consulting business specialising in contemporary art from Asia. We will sell contemporary art from China, Japan, Korea, India and Southeast Asia with a focus on new and emerging artists.

We will start off with retail art galleries in two locations: one in Asia, one in Western Europe. In addition to selling art to collectors and the public at large, the business will also work with corporate clients to advise on art acquisitions and leasing.

The target market for the business is both retail clients and corporate clients. Our target retail clients are art lovers, amateur collectors, and interior designers. The target corporate clients are large and medium-size multi-national and regional companies.

Given the range of clientele, the logo needs to appeal to both the retail market and the corporate market. Retail customers will span a wide range of demographics and ages (25 years old and up).

Most buyers will be English-speaking but the business is expected to attract some local clients in Asia and globally via the website and eCommerce (in the future).

We really want to see different ideas and are not entering into the process with a preconceived notion of what the "Gallery Asie" logo should look like. Black and white and color ideas are both of interest.

We are committed to following the contest closely and giving feedback throughout the process to narrow the focus and give designers the feedback they need to come up with the winning logo.
