Slogan

What We Do
We design and build small, ecological houses. For a relaunch of the website combined with an adaption of the building concept (not nonger based on massive wood, but wood-straw elements) we need a new logo. This new logo, however, should have a recognition effect and therefore not be too far from the old one.
Industry
Construction
Color Preferences
brown (e.g. #4a3728), golden-yellow (e.g. #ffce2e)
Our Ideas & Additional Information
Please combine a house with wheat or straw.
As we need the logo for a relaunch, it should connect to the present logo (leaves in the outline of a house). Instead of leaves we would like to see wheat or straw.
The logo should also work for hot foil stamping and embossing. Serif font for title, sans-serif for subtitle.
The logo should work with signet in top of type as well as aside.
We're looking forward to your ideas.

UPDATE: Please take care, that the new design is as close as possible to the old one – just transmitting the straw concept. And don't let it look too technical. It should transmit at the same time simplicity and comfort.

Thank you for your ideas so far. If your design hasn't ranked it may be due to one of the following reasons:
– not grasping the idea (house + wheat; brown + yellow)
– stacked leaves not recognisable as wheat
– logo not minimalistic enough
– logo too far away from the present one
– logo too technical
– plants inside the house / looking like a greenhouse

Please maintain the proportions of the house in our present logo (an don't add neither roof overhang nor chimney nor windows ;)

I've just uploaded examples of wheat icons as alternative to icons which just look like a stack of leaves.
