OSEG Logo Designs

Here we list design proposals for Open Source Ecology Germany.

Yin/Yang with Open Hardware and Ecology

Design Sketch by: Nikolay

Main Idea: represent the letters OSE and add Open Hardware to the picture. O is represented by the circle. S is represented by the S in the circle - Yin/Yang is formed. The points of the Yin/Yang parts are symbols themselves. On the right is the Open Hardware logo. On the left is a symbol for Ecology. This represents the balance between technology (hardware) and nature (ecology).

Next steps could be:

• Choose good symbol for ecology: search in google images for ideas.
• Add plenty a colors for another colorful version of the logo.
• The logo can be easily upgraded for certain events: add shine, sun, animate it, etc.

Logo with Colors

OSHW-Plant

Main idea:

• To bring two main elements together: Open Source Hardware and ecology/life/growth etc.
• The reversed OSHW gear in earthy-orange represents the ground/soil as the basis for ecology/life/growth etc.
• This draft also represents the "germform"-concept (Keimform).

These drafts are in a very early stage and should only illustrate my idea. I'm not a professional illustrator :)
