About the "Ocean" Design
There are many references to water, the ocean and rivers in the Bible that have significance. The Nation of Israel crossing the Red Sea, Jesus being baptized in the Jordan River, Christ walking on water are a few examples. This logo could also represent a church geographically near a body of water. The logo works well at all size applications.
Suggested Colors and Typefaces
Color selections (spot colors based on Pantone coated color selector): Pantone 311U and 315U. Process color options can be explored using the available Layered Photoshop File (PSD).
Typeface Used: Mithras by ITC (Click here for purchasing information). ITC Mithras was designed by Bob Anderton and finds its foundation in the worn yet elegant letters carved into stones of a Mithraic temple in Scotland. The capitals are narrow and complemented by a wide, full bodied lowercase. The proportions of the curves vary slightly between characters and this subtle contrast gives the face a mellow appearance while still attracting attention. ITC Mithras is a very legible typeface and hence applicable to a wide range of display uses.
