Final Fil (elephant)
Fil
Final logo and name of Fil.
Sebastian has made this nice looking logo! For everyone a short description of the origin of the name and logo:
The name arose from the objects form, which looks a bit like an elephant head. Fil means Elephant in Turkish. But we pronounce it not as Fiel, as it should be pronounced in Turkish, but more as a name like Phill. SoFil.
The logo reflects both the shape of the object as the visual appearance of the name Fil/elephant.
The logo is sent to Mark today, hopefully they are able to make a print out of it, so it can be put on the object still.
Here is also the PDF, which you can open in Illustrator: Fil_Logo
