Calculate.co.nz — 41 logo directions

Forty-one alternative marks, each built live (vector and type, no image files) so they stay crisp at any size. Use the swatches to preview every option on white, grey, navy and black. Numbers and short notes are under each. Concepts 21 onward lean harder into the brand: NZ money, savings, mortgages, rates and financial literacy. Concepts 36 to 41 pair the refined serif wordmark with a blinking input cursor. Nothing here is live on the site; this page is noindexed.

Pick any you like (by number) and I can refine it: adjust the type, colour, spacing, build favicon and social versions, and wire it into the live header. Or say none of them work and I will take another run.
