Tommy Capital  - A global investment company unlocks the unrealized value through superior execution.

■ CLIENT: Tommy Capital

As a global investment company, the feeling it gives to people should be precise and discerning. So I designed the logo's overall shape more squarely and used the dark blue colour as the background. Gold and silver represent value and wealth, and the semicircular C represents more possibilities. The reason for using two lines to convey is to show the company's prudence and calmness.
