The origin of our logo

We chose the name SENDUNE because

  • the world is easy to pronounce - just two syllables - "sen-dyoon".
  • the .com was available.
  • has the word 'Send'.

Designing our logo did not take much effort. All i was certain of was that i wanted our logo to represent an 'Envelope' - the standard image used to represent 'Email'. I opened my scribble book, grabbed a pen, and the final logo just 'came to me' in under a minute. This is the first time this has ever happened to me.

Here's the one and only original sketch. There were no rough drafts.

The logo does have some meaning afterall.
  • It looks like a 'SAND DUNE' - the desert sand thingies - a word that rhymes with SENDUNE.
  • It looks like a 'PYRAMID'. A symbol of 'longevity' - which is one of our first principles.
  • Stretching it along another dimension (dotted line in above image) brings out an 'ENVELOPE' - representing 'EMAIL' the foundation and reason why SENDUNE exists.
