Hi there. This is my take on your logo. The icon in my designs is an abstract structure that is reflected on the water. Feedback and comments are welcome.
Ted - This is very interesting. i like the font that is used and the idea of a symbol reflecting off the water. It has been hard to convey what the right image in our logo should be since we are not just a home builder but do a lot of development work on a high end resort type property. We have shot down most of the designs that have just the house in it, but do like a symbol. Not sure I like the abstract symbol, wish we could have something that had some meaning. You are on the right track.
Thanks for the prompt feedback. I appreciate your thoughts. I'm slightly clueless as for what the icon should be since you don't want a house. If I have other ideas pop into my head I'll address them. Likewise if you have specific ideas you'd like me to explore please feel free to let me know.
Ted - I spoke with our CEO and he really liked the look with the reflection off the water. He even liked the symbol and saw a lot of geometric qualities that reference construction with it. He thought it was clean and good, just felt that the logo represented a more comercial feel. I hope this helps a little.
