Hello all designers, please note that Venetian type horizontal blade blinds is not what the company primarily does. We mainly do Roller style blinds. 'Green Star' is a rating used by Australia to rate buildings for its energy efficiency; I would like to tie this concept in to my brand. Thanks!
The symbol of the logo should be clearly stating the type of environmentally concious blinds Green Star blinds sells. It will be used as a small sticker on the base of every blind. This symbol then should resonate the three main points which is in the design breif about the company.
You may wish to reconsider the use of the "Energy Star Icon" as part of your company branding there may be legal issues down the road http://www.energystar.gov/

TO All Designers: The following are a list of points I have considered as appealing elements to the logo:
Ref: #348, #257
1. Colours used. These mix of colours are great in displaying the 'Green' concept and colours used in governing bodies within the ecological realm.
2. Interesting yet non complicated designs. Simplicity scores big points.
3. Easy flowing lines. No sharp pointy bits,
4. Typeset, easy to read, straight which shows the core of the company; straight talkers, not bull****
5. Professional (not too rounded and 'skype-ish')...we are afterall apealing to professionals, architect, interior designer types who may judge the company by the initial presentation therefore projecting a slightly more serious yet 'appreciating design flair' image is important.
