Hi Thijs,

I have read your mail a few times and did not succeed to understand it 
all... :-S

I suppose group 1 is the first proposal we got...

Do you mean that you thought about number 1 (in my numbering) as an icon 
while number 3 would have been a logo ?

I do not think they fit together : 3 being much less angular than 1

Further, I'd like a single graphical element to be the mark of KSS.

I do not understand what you mean by group 2

I think new number 3 is too complex.

I have adapted it to something simpler which shows the text (see 
attached image) but I still think I do not want text in the logo.

IOW, we should try to find the right font that would associate cleanly 
KSS letters with logo.

I'd like a color closer to the files I attach (less red - more orange)
