Our company logo is a multi-coloured "impossible triangle".  The multiple colours/hues are indicative of the many facets of modern business that we have to deal with on a daily basis.  The "impossible" aspect is that we like to think that we can find a viable solution to our clients' seemingly "impossible" problems. We have often found that it is just a matter of a different perspective that we can bring to the table - a perspective provided by a strong combination of business experience and training.
 
The "impossible triangle", made from a strange two-dimensional representation of cubes, was first created in 1934 by Swedish artist Oscar Reutersvard (1915-200). This link to a website for the artist describes the history of his rendering of the world's first premeditated impossible figure - a figure which at first appears reasonable but fails upon inspection to be real. The impossible triangle cannot be built in 3-dimensions and can only exist in 2-dimensional drawings. Although Retersvard's triangle was rendered in black and white, we have taken the liberty to colour the cubes. A different version of this figure, independently created in 1954 by Roger Penrose (1931-) is known as the Penrose triangle. Penrose, a co-founder of the "Big Bang" theory in cosmology, described the impossible triangle figure as, "... Impossibility in its purest form." Penrose's triangle is a refinement of Reutersvard's in that it is rendered in perspective. Penrose is said to have rediscovered the impossible triangle after attending a lecture by the artist M. C. Escher (1898-1972). Escher is the well known Dutch artist whose graphic explorations of tiling, impossible figures and regression have inspired mathematicians and scientists for decades. Escher incorporated the Penrose triangle into his famous lithograph "Waterfall" - an example can be found here.
