Re: 20th Birthday Logo | Feedback needed

[Kate Lassalle-Klein]

Hi all! I put a few more concepts in the folder last night, following the
flat design theme, and hoping to get across simplicit and professionalism
(as Alan was talking about)
I added:

- an iteration of Jakub's design with the triangles
- some versions of geometric triangles + 20 years strong
- another, simpler, 20 years strong, the 2 overlapping the 0 a bit
- 20 years strong, super flat with the geometric hearts in the background.

These don't have to be "finished"; we can iterate further on these concepts
and perfect them more.
Let me know any feedback, but I don't think I can dedicate a lot more time
to new concepts, so hopefully one of these works!
I kind of like the theme of the hearts; it goes with the 'strong' in '20
years strong' theme.

Best,
Kate

They are fun. I played with making the foot logo be the zero, but it
was hard not to make it read like a digit six instead.

Wow, 20 years!
