Minimalist Wordmark Logo Creation

I need a fresh, distinctive word-only logo for NauticDrive Systems GmbH, the company behind high-performance shaft and thrust-bearing systems for the boatbuilding and wider marine industry. The mark must read clean, reduced, and unmistakably modern, with minimalism taking top priority.

Typeface treatment
• Compact, well-balanced lettering that feels technical without drifting into ornamentation.
• Subtle square-based geometric refinements may be woven into individual letterforms—think precise corner cuts or squared inner counters—so long as legibility stays perfect.

Palette
The core colour is RAL 5009 (Azure Blue). You may introduce restrained shades of gray to enhance depth or contrast; no other hues, gradients, or effects. The final artwork has to look equally strong in single-colour Azure and in Azure-with-gray variations, plus a pure white version for dark backgrounds.

Deliverables
• Fully editable vector files: .AI, .SVG, .EPS
• Web-ready raster files: transparent .PNG and high-res .JPG
• A brief style note (font names, colour codes, and any construction grid) so our in-house team can apply the logo consistently.

Acceptance criteria
1. Pure wordmark with no separate symbol.
2. Geometry limited to square-inspired nuances; no circles or triangles.
3. Colour usage restricted to RAL 5009 + grayscale for example "GmbH"


If this sounds clear, let me know how soon you can deliver an initial concept and your revision workflow.
