Conceptualization:
A distinctive 'M' letter was chosen as the central element of the logo, creatively incorporating a scuba diver within its design. This unique approach aimed to symbolize the brand's focus on scuba diving and underwater exploration. To emphasize the brand's connection to the ocean, a deep, gradient blue color palette was selected, symbolizing the various depths of the sea. Blue was also chosen for its psychological association with trust and reliability.
