The logo for The Brinsmere Funds encapsulates a distinctive icon portraying an English Bulldog, thoughtfully chosen to align with the client's specific preferences. The Bulldog is depicted facing forward, embodying a forward-looking trajectory that signifies progress and innovation, aligning with the company's ethos of leading the way in the financial industry. The smiling expression on the Bulldog's face is a deliberate design choice intended to convey a sense of approachability, friendliness, and goodwill, reinforcing the message that The Brinsmere Funds is a welcoming and trustworthy entity in the financial realm.
Beneath the Bulldog icon lies a strong and stable baseline, symbolizing the core values and principles upon which The Brinsmere Fund stands. This baseline is symbolic and relates to the primary typology used throughout the brand, featuring serifs that echo the foundational elements of the fund.
The carefully curated color palette draws inspiration from The Milwaukee Company's branding, where dark cerulean (#17477A) takes center stage as the primary color. Dark cerulean instills a sense of trust and reliability, aptly complementing the secondary color, khaki (#C7AF92). The strategic use of white (#FFFFFF) and anti-flash white (#F2F5EF) adds contrast and contributes to a modern and clean aesthetic, enhancing the overall visual impact of the The Brinsmere Funds’ logo.
