Describe your company and organization and target audience

<p data-start="637" data-end="845" class="PDq2pG_selectionAnchorContainer">GTX Bronze Bar is a luxury custom spray tanning studio located in Georgetown, Texas. We specialize in natural-looking, flawless custom spray tans that are tailored to each client's skin tone and desired glow.<span aria-hidden="true" class="PDq2pG_selectionAnchor"></span></p> <p data-start="847" data-end="1070">Our clients are primarily women ages 18–65+ who value beauty, self-care, confidence, and premium service. Many are brides, professionals, moms, vacation travelers, fitness enthusiasts, and women preparing for special events.</p> <p data-start="1072" data-end="1255">Our brand is welcoming, feminine, elevated, and modern—not flashy or trendy. We want every client to feel comfortable, beautiful, and confident the moment they walk through our doors.</p> <p data-start="1257" data-end="1495">Although we are a spray tanning business, we are building a luxury beauty brand rather than a typical tanning salon. The logo should feel timeless enough that it could eventually expand into additional beauty services and retail products.</p>

Briefly describe your contest

GTX Bronze Bar is growing into Georgetown's premier luxury spray tanning studio. We are looking for a timeless, sophisticated logo that feels more like a luxury beauty brand than a traditional tanning salon. We want a design that is elegant, memorable, feminine, and premium. It should communicate confidence, beauty, warmth, and exceptional service while remaining clean and minimal. We are open to fresh ideas and encourage creativity. Rather than recreating common spray tanning logos, we'd love to see original concepts that could become an iconic beauty brand. We would especially love if the final design included: • Primary logo • GTX monogram/icon • Horizontal version • Vertical version • Black version • White version. Imagine this logo displayed on the exterior of a beautiful boutique beauty studio with matte black signage and champagne gold lettering. It should feel premium enough that someone would stop and think, "I want to go there."
