A Crest designed for an Elite Fraternity

As you can see, we have already built out the crest on paper but want it perfected. Need to center image and make things precise Not our logo - doesn't need to be simple or concise Shield that explains much of our philosophy - as to why so many elements exist: Pedestal - place much importance on world and want to raise it up. Make world a better place. Hand coming down with compass emphasizes that we should take careful measurement of world around us to function most effectively Hand is designed to be the hand of God Level (L) represents careful framework - careful construction Hammer symbolizes creation through hard work and effort - Solid (Flip hammer and Level) Handshake - Core of our organization (trust, relationship building) Brotherhood Land symbolizes wisdom- quest and pursuit of knowledge - effective management of wisdom Two lions symbolize strength, pride, and protection (coveting of our org) North Star is guiding light, guiding force, leadership Relationship building organization trying to foster a strong brotherhood. Shield symbolizes strength and protection. Simplicity is key (no 3d elements) Needs to be very clean Color schemes: (Blue, Silver, Gold) (Red, Silver, Gold) (Whatever you see fit) This crest will be placed on business cards, websites, and clothing apparel. We would like there to be a bit of flare also included in the design. As long as all of elements are included, we are more than happy to review all artist renderings. While creativity is key, we'd like the Crest to convey a rustic feeling composed of objects that fit an ultimate unity of effect. The intention is to inspire tradition and lineage for a unique fraternal organization that includes symbolic teaching elements.
