Our identity

  • Symbolism

     

    IT solutions is a very diverse concept and can not be captured in any one single element or symbol. Any such attempt would suggest that the company has a particular focus area.

    IT solutions is a very diverse concept and can not be captured in any one single element or symbol. Any such attempt would suggest that the company has a particular focus area.

    The two messages, which should be prominent are “complete” and “solution”

    Complete = circular shape = suggestion of the letter “C”
    Solutions = triangle = change= solutions to a constant changing IT environment. 3 points of triangle symbolise problem-solving.

    client – problem – consultant

    The third element is IT as a generic descriptor.

  • Colours

     

    IT = technology = grey / neutral

    Innovation = energy = invigorating = orange

    Grey offers stability and neutrality of a diverse IT environment while the focus area of IT Solutions is orange which is bold, energetic and invigorating.
