I need a logo for my hardware product called WANCHOR. It is important to distinguish the "W" from the "anchor" because my product is a 'wire anchor'. This is for the construction industry, specifically concrete fasteners. So red, orange, yellow are recommended for colours, but not an absolute requirement. Some notes:
(1) the word 'anchor' should be all the same font...don't play around with the 'O' because you are breaking up the entire word 'anchor', and taking attention away from the 'W'.
(2) I think the key is the 'W'. How to be creative with it but not where people have difficulty to understand. Remember that this is for the construction industry. It will be men who are buying this product and they need to feel that it is strong and will simplify their work. So 'W' should be bigger than the rest of the word I think, and use more 'chunky' lettering, like square block, thicker or something. Since the wanchor is used for concrete, the letters should either look like concrete letters or something tough like that
