Island Immersion

Describe your company and organization and target audience

Island Immersion is for the traveler who wants to dive deep into the cultural, ecological, and linguistic happenings of their destination. Those who seek the authentic, the unaltered. Those who understand that real travel is about getting out of your comfort zone and experiencing something that will expand your mind. Island Immersion is a small group travel organizer specializing in highly curated and immersive travel experiences. My goal is to help travelers move beyond the role of typical tourist by immersing them into their destination’s cultures, languages, and ecosystems. From homestays to chateaux, glacier trekking to jungle canoeing, I collaborate with my travelers to create a wide range of experiences worldwide. Ideal for small groups, study abroad, and families. I have no canned itineraries. Every travel experience is created in close consultation with the group.

The design should have the following

I love turquoises/blues/greens (like tropical waters and lush jungles), so I'd be happy with something in this palette. While the name might conjure the typical "palm tree and island" look, that's not exactly what I'm looking for with this logo. I am looking for something more refined, more all-encompassing, more worldly. It can have an island on it but it doesn't need to be a tropical island (does not need to include palm trees). I am looking for a fairly simple logo with a fresh font. I'm not exactly sure yet what I am after. Hopefully one of you awesome designers can show me what I've been looking for.

This logo will be used for

  • Online (Website, facebook etc.)
  • Print (business cards, letterheads, brochures etc.)
  • Merchandise (mugs, t-shirts etc.)

This design should not have this in the entries

Colors to avoid: probably black/brown/red (I'd like the design to be turquoise/blue/green).
Fonts to avoid: Times New Roman, and anything overly silly or overly frilly (I like simple, clean fonts like Century Gothic and whatever font this form is written in).
Cliche palm trees / island / something overly tropical and "vacationy".

What style of logo would you like?
