The current logo pays tribute to the newspaper era, where articles ended with 'Dash-Three-Zero-Dash' or '30' for typesetting efficiency. We recommended retaining this homage while introducing the mission statement 'Precision in Investigation, Clarity in Solutions' to encapsulate 30 Forensic Engineering's ethos. Forensic Engineers face the challenge of resolving cases and meticulously documenting findings through detailed reports. Keeping that in mind, we drew inspiration from editorial design principles.
