Logo for a new web design agency (SLASHKODE)

About the project SLASHKODE is a newly registered web design/development agency based in Melbourne, Australia. We need a clean, professional logo to launch with. Style direction Vibe: Minimal, modern, confident — not playful or corporate/stiff Colors: The core logo/wordmark should be designed in monochrome (black & white) so it stays timeless and works anywhere. We already have a brand accent color locked in — rgb(229, 47, 34) / #E52F22 (a red-orange) — which we'll use separately for our website, buttons, and social content. Please do NOT use this accent color in the logo itself; just keep it in mind so the black/white mark looks intentional next to it. Concept: The name has a natural visual hook — the "/" (slash) in SLASHKODE. We like the idea of the slash becoming part of an icon mark , so the logo reads as both a tech/code reference and a clean geometric symbol. References we like: clean geometric tech wordmarks (e.g. Stripe, Linear, Vercel-style minimalism) — sharp, no clutter, scales down well. Avoid: generic laptop/gear/globe icons, gradients, 3D effects, stock "coding" clipart, mascots. A NOTE ON CREATIVE FREEDOM The slash concept above is our starting idea, not a strict spec — we're genuinely open to your own creative direction if you have a stronger concept. Show us your thinking, not just literal execution of our idea. IMPORTANT DETAILS: the "K" in KODE Our name is a deliberate spelling twist — SLASHKODE, with a K instead of a C. Becausepeople's brains want to auto-correct this back to "code," we'd like the logo to give the K somekind of visual emphasis (color, weight, size, or integrated into the icon — your call) so itsticks in people's memory and they spell it correctly after seeing it once. Open to your ideas on how to execute this — just flagging it as a functional requirement, not only an aesthetic one. Deliverables Primary logo (icon + wordmark lockup) Icon mark alone (for favicon/social avatar use) Wordmark-only version (for tight spaces) Black version + white/reversed version Vector source files (.AI or .EPS, plus .SVG) — not just flattened PNG/JPG PNG exports with transparent background (a few sizes) Basic color codes (hex) and font names used Process Please share 2-3 initial concepts before we pick a direction to refine 2-3 rounds of revisions included Milestone payments: deposit to start → balance on final vector delivery To apply, please include 1. Link to your portfolio 2. 2-3 examples of logos you've designed that are closest to this "minimal/monochrome/tech" style 3. Your estimated timeline and price for the core deliverables above
