Members Ludite Posted June 4, 2009 Members Report Posted June 4, 2009 A Kentish Celt? . . . no way! Hertfordshire - home of Boudica!Death by slobberation . . . sounds different! Are you sure your don`t come from Kent !!! You might not be too bad then! .But there is still that Herbert from the colonies ! Boadicea is responsible for the bloody dog anyway; the Britains breed them for War Dogs. Slobbered to death I don`t think so, this bugger weighs in at 15 1/2 stone (215 lbs). Now how do we get a ferry to this place called Texas! Quote Paul Clements AKA Ludite.

Contributing Member UKRay Posted June 4, 2009 Contributing Member Report Posted June 4, 2009 (edited) A sophisticated logo for a company named Barefoot Leather. That is a challenge! How did you arrive at that name in the first place, Ray?Bob Now you've opened the floodgates, Bob... Barefoot dates back to my childhood when I spent a lot of time in a Budhist/Taoist household. The idea of Taoism appeals a lot and the whole concept of barefoot doctors in China - took my imagination. For those who haven't heard of the barefoot doctors they were farmers in remote areas trained by the government as para-medics so they could deal with medical emergencies. They still earned their living working barefoot in the rice fields, but had specialist knowledge that could help their fellow farmers in their time of need. I liked the analogy of being a writer, media consultant and marketeer but making a living as a leatherworker. Maybe it is a challenge, but in case anyone is interested here are some Design Ideas: In the abstract, barefoot is all about natural materials like leather, wood, beeswax and linen thread plus finely worked metals like silver, brass and copper. barefoot is all about being 'grounded' and 'real' - no synthetic materials. barefoot reflects the way we come in to the world and the way we leave. barefoot is elegant, efficient and effective but most of all comfortable. Barefoot is definitely the way to go! Ray Edited June 4, 2009 by UKRay Quote "Some mornings, it's just not worth chewing through the leather straps" Ray Hatley www.barefootleather.co.uk
BobHall Posted June 5, 2009 Report Posted June 5, 2009 Considering the 'root' of the company name, would you like some hint of Taoism/Buddism in the logo? The possibilities are endless...it is a very symbolic culture. Quote
