I used A Hand Drawn Font for The NearHak Word and Added the 3d Near logo on Top of It.
And Also Adding The 3 lead Role Of Hakuna Matata Phumba Timon and Simba (silhoutte)
A Gold Color representing Its Value To The Community. All Of It is A png except for The Background i add at the Back . But if you would Like my Entry and you have a desired Background color or style I can Draw it as you wish

I also wondering the Logo you gave as an example is Near Hack. And the Text in the caption is Near Hak brand. I got confused @jack

Well well… considering my family were refugees kicked out of Uganda (east africa), I am REQUIRED to submit at least one idea…

OK, so did a bit of digging around your links then was wondering whats the animal in your current logo. Found out is the meerkat and started looking around for symbolism. I think it’s the perfect animal to use for it’s meaning

Meerkat Symbolism & Meaning | Meerkat Spirit, Totem, & Power Animal

Get in-depth Meerkat Symbolism & Meanings! Meerkat as a Spirit, Totem, & Power Animal. Plus Meerkat in South African Animals and Dreams!

However, it’s not the right choice as per Wikipedia it’s more popular in south Africa. It’s also doesn’t resonate for me personally (though I guess your target audience is Africa? I’m in Canada).

I might go with the Maasai as they are more iconic from “Gods must be crazy” and they speak Swahili. Maasai, however, don’t really represent friendship or kinship, at least not immediately to my mind anyways. When I think of Maasai, I think of warriors, runners, etc.

If I had to pick one African animal that represents kindness, social bonds, and kinship, it’s the elephant.

So were I in charge of the brand, I would probably go with that.

I will submit something soon.

creative with your idea

Thank You Jack❤️ is it possible to submit 1 design or sample or i can try again for another idea?

OK, Unfortunately, I can’t spend any more time on this. But I came up with this.

Also, some context and my process: I often start searching for iconic imagery at freepik and vecteezy. Sometimes, I find something that’s perfect and given the small client budget (in this case it’s a comp), I usually go with a premade graphic and then tweak my idea in. That’s what I did here. Source: Elephants flat icons 643250 Vector Art at Vecteezy

There were some others I wanted to try that I thought could also work here:

Free Vector | Animal badge elements

Download this Free Vector about Animal badge elements, and discover more than 15 Million Professional Graphic Resources on Freepik

Initially, I looked at “elephant polygon” but I feel like that visual doesn’t scream “approachable” to me. Polygon, although really great for logo, is too “techy” for this project.

Searching for “elephant cartoon logo” also was too childish and would turn some people off although would convey easy and approachable.

I chose this image that I used in the logo because it stood out (one of my logo requirements) and I could drop in the NEAR logo.

I’m not too happy with the font, but it’s something I whipped up quickly using Photopea. I might go with something easier on the eyes like https://www.fontspace.com/high-thin-light-font-f18624 or https://www.fontspace.com/parsley-path-thin-font-f24989

But I would want to see first as the font type and visual has to match (hard to describe… it’s just a feeling).

Good luck on your project!

I just couldn’t decide on the fonts - so I figured I’d upload each style! The theme remains consistent throughout. I did stray from the Lion King theme itself, i.e., warm colors and charachters… I love The Lion King, so I’m not going to lie - it hurt a little designing something w/ Meerkats that weren’t from the adorned film. Ultimately the cool, blue and green tones (in the color copies)each have B&W copies)) stayed true to the calming theme of ‘Hakuna Matata’ as well as giving a subtle nod to the natural elements of the phrase and film - thinking circle of life - blue and green are colors associated with natural elements (water, earth). I simutaneously wanted to incorporate a compatible pallet to Near. I chose to do so because, to me, if the logo of the project is visually tied to Lion King, the Disney film, it would mentally restrict its use case for certain artists to Disney associated (or similar) projects… That is totally a personal opinion - and maybe that is what HAK wants to accomplish, I totally support it! Side note: I had an idea to make a logo with the ‘K’ in Hak to be ‘Pride Rock’ from the film - didn’t feel right about executing this and staying true to a text focused logo… If anyone could execute that - run it! I think that would be amazing! Thanks for reading - I had fun with this and it looks like everyone else did, as well!

Should we all do this and see HAK in our wallet now? Or are you dropping those later?

@jack disregard my previous message. I was looking at the wrong wallet. I see you dropped them in. Thanks!!
