Final Name:

Previous Name Ideas:

Each of the names that I came up with had to do with either the extreme nature of white water kayaking or the idea that my business trained others in the sport.

For example: Next Level Kayaking stemmed from the five levels of white water kayaking.

I chose Third Element Kayaking because it really emphasized the element of water and how the sport wouldn’t be without it.

The three intertwining cirlcles evolved as a product of the name “Three Elements.” I began this idea before I finalized the business name as “Third Ele-ment.”

At this time I still hadn’t really decided what the three elements were, which led me to a new idea.

My second idea came directly from the first one. I began to play around with the center of the cirles, the place where they overlapped, and came up with what looked a little like three kayaks.

This eventually turned into a kayak, the blue water, and a paddle which tied it all into the name “Three Elements.”

My third idea was an experiment with lettermarks. I chose two fonts, a bold and light font, and incor-porated the cirlces into it at a much smaller scale.

The lower half is something I tried by creating a clipping mask. It ended up cutting out the “three kayaks” shape out of both the TE and the double E. Even though I loved the turnout, it ended up looking too much like a propeller.

e eee eeeThis was my fourth and final idea. I really liked experimenting with the letter “e” and decided to just multiply it by three.

When all three were lined up, it created this look that portrayed movement and the idea of water and rapids. I wanted to connect them all somehow so I extended the middle of the e all the way to the left, and turning it into a paddle connected the whole idea of kayaking and water and movement.

I ended up changing my business name to “Third Element” to emphasize just one element which is water.
