Pool Company Logo

So my uncle decides out of no where to start a pool maintenance company. Basically you would hire them to clean your pool weekly, replace tiles, open and close the pool, anything really, they'll help upkeep your pool. I had some really nice logos emphasizing the name "purity" and actually giving the name some meaning. But those were axed. There was really no direction in this other than put some waves in it, thus the waves. The symbol is an abstracted pool rather than beating you over the head wtih a picture of a pool... Hey it is what it is.

Very nice job, but there is just a bit too much blue. Make Purity Pools black, and leave the waves and logo the way they are.

I agree there is too much blue, not really my color pallette, adding black would make it 3 colors

Time to find a good digital press. I recently had a run of 2000 business cards printed - full colour - 2 sided, on a new highend digital press. I was blown away by the quality. Although the text is a wee bit more sharp off a traditional press. at half the price the digital is a God sent. It is slowly removing the number of colour limitations I once faced.

Black would just kill this logo. I agree that there might be too much blue, but I'd make the light and dark blue the same pantone, and just lower value for the light blue, then add a catalyst color, like orange yellow or something.
Then you would only have a 2 color job.

I disagree that black would kill it. There are already some dark colours in there, i think it would work. Maybe a dark grey then.

I like it the way it is... but without the thingy on the left. Maybe a different font... or stylize the font somehow (maybe have it going along with the same wave as the water?).
p-u-r need to be kerned in and y out.
it's a great logo!
I would just make the pool more kidney shaped
"... make the pool more kidney shaped"
;-) Exactly my sentiment. Otherwise, great.

I would keep it as it is. I think the typography is very clean and the waves are fun.
I think perhaps your logo lacks some balance.. Good job though :)
I agree with black killing the logo... as far as balance goes... he's right. work on that pool that you have left... it doesn't relax me like a pool should.
get me?
Because of the waves under the text, it looks like the icon is not a part of the logo. I think the logo is not simple enough. If you get rid of the icon, or the waves, then you might have it.
Between the type and the icon, there is somekind of balance problem, the icon is too small for the type.

I did a screen print of that logo, and yanked off the pool. It was great. Well balanced and solid. If you could change .the type face to impact and make the POOLS bottom flow with the wavy lines below it, then you'll have a wonderful logo. All the same, it was a brilliant tot. Well done. I have also learnt from it.
