Another design for the tie


errmm..let me explain...the symbols used are hieroglyphic symbols(ancient roman alphabets..and it spells pharmacy..cause if we just put 'PHARMACY', its kinda dull and its like we want the whole wide world to know that we're pharmacists..so i feel symbols are fun... let me decipher it for u..at first i did it in a white background but i dont know how to change the background to black..thx to andrew for helping me change and the picture at the bottom which is the R with the cup and snake is also a pharmacy symbol..i've google it but not 100% sure...so..pls leave ur comment..thank you..




The 1st one(box)= P

2nd(the twisting thing)= H

bird = A

eye = R

5th one(dont know how to explain) = M
bird again = A

bowl with polka dots = C

two triangular thing = Y
(if u still dont understand, google hieroglyphic symbols)

This is really nice. Good job, KX. I am not sure but I thought in IMU, snake is more like representation of medic? isn't pharmacy more to mortar and pestle? but still, very nice job..think we can make it as our logo. =)

kx said...

really ar...i didn't know that..then we can put mortar and pestle or find other logo..hehe..

km-y said...

wow, good effort, thanks KX =) definitely creative.

KX said...

errmm..i've tried googling again..the common symbol like what ellen said is the mortar and pestle and others too like the the Rx sign, various alchemical symbols, the show globe, the green cross. Today, the picture with the snake which is known as the Bowl of Hygeia is a recognized international symbol for pharmacy..

i think this tie is a bit too formal.. :P the previous one with all the words looks cool but we need B107 identity in it.. should we like combine both?? just my little opinion.. hehe...
