The Concept
The logo designed for Roam Conference is essentially a stylized snail. The snail is symbolic of the conference for a number of reasons. Firstly, the tagline of the conference is “live slow”. A snail has long been associated with a slower pace, so it is a fitting to use a snail as a symbol to represent the ethos of the conference. Secondly, the snail is a nomadic animal; it carries its home on its back wherever it travels. As the primary target of attendees are individuals who lead a nomadic life, the snail is also a symbol of this. Finally, the logo has been designed so that there is a wave shape in the negative space between the shell and the body of the snail. The wave is an explicit tie to the surf aspect of the conference.
