Competition: fbesoc logo/visual identity design competition

Brief: fbesoc needs a new visual identity that reflects our aims/objectives and the growing BE student community we're putting together. Established in August 2011 by a group of enthusiastic Built Environment students, fbesoc is a brand new student society looking to build a more active, creative and social student community within the faculty. In 2012 we're going to be running more social events (including a stall at oweek, start of session party, fbesoc cruise) and academic events/initiatives (like student skill tutorials, dwiki, FBEAnnual); as well as creating a new student publication.

Our community is made up of students studying architecture, interior, landscape, architectural computing, industrial design, planning, construction management as well as students from the BE postgraduate degrees. The society aims to engage this community by encouraging  networking/collaboration among students and establish an open forum that focuses on breaking down the barriers that exist between the various BE degrees. We want to students to be able to freely discuss design issues/topics, share ideas /knowledge and interaction socially/creatively with students from across the faculty. 

A new visual identity that reflects the fbesoc community is required for the society to be successful & we want You to design it for us! If you are a designer currently studying at UNSW (you don't have to be a BE student) then we want to ask you very politely to develop a new logo/visual identity for our society/community. It needs to be engaging, identifiable as well as appealing to all students from across the BE. Our members/community should be able to identify with this logo/visual identity.
