Logo Concept The GetOut logo is designed to reflect our commitment to connecting with each other and the world around us. With so much time being spent indoors at the office and at home, GetOut gives its members a way to escape the urban jungle and explore, discover and connect with new places and new friends. Our mark combines visual cues reminiscent of houses, wings and a wifi signal to give the viewer a sense of movement from one place to another. By placing the mark to the right of the type, we invite our members to join us on an adventure of discovery. By placing an emphasis on the word “Out,� we reinforce our goal of introducing our members to new experiences only found by breaking out of our comfort zones.
