#2 is showing some level of creativity - but designers, please do not be afraid to use other colors and use design elements to convey movement and energy. We are open to icons to convey our slogan of "Live * Life * Home - think of Redfin's logo. Colors can be used to convey movement too - for instance, using contrasting blue/orange to convey energy. Please feel free to use your creativity!

Entry #3 looks like it might be more appropriate for a construction company. We are hoping for a more playful logo that conveys energy and a bit more playfulness.

Thanks for the feedback!
Here is another idea: Flying bird (convey vacation) and houses.
Please let me know what you think

We like entry #5 and #4 for the use of a spot color to convey movement and energy. We also like the use of icons - not sure about the bird image. It doesn't capture the image we are going for. We'd be more open to a Nike swoosh-type icon too if you can think of one.

by the way, we looked at your portfolio and liked what you did for j.fisher photography and Down Under Travel. The creative use of images that represents our slogan is what we are hoping to incorporate into our logo!

entry #23 is interesting in its use of the abstract form to convey movement - but we aren't fond of the windows. It seems too predictable and commonplace. The "Kevin Doran" font seems a bit too playful - almost childlike. Maybe something a bit more serious too? Can we try other color schemes as well? The client is not entirely committed to the blue scheme.

Thanks for your design! Can you please play with it a little for me? What I am thinking is to put more of a bullet (centered between the words) rather than a period between Live * Life * Home. Also, can we see what it looks like with upper case first letter of each word and lower case for the rest of the word as I showed above. Will this convert well to a black/grey/white logo as well - if I were to print in black/white? thanks for your efforts to date, I appreciate it!

Nong, this is great- thanks! I'm leaning towards your designs with the color & ability to do the grey's, black & white, & reverse... So thanks!

Can you please play with the fonts for Live * Life * Home? Try a sportier & energetic feel as well as one that is more "serious" or "professional" to see how that might look.

Thanks for the great work & I look forward to seeing your ideas (font-wise) - thanks!

Torn between 162 and 158. Can I see the font slightly bigger for live life home in #162? it doesn't seem as easy to read as 158. I'm trying to decide between the two, thx!

Hi Nong! I'm definitely selecting yours- the delay has been in which font to use between 158 and 166. I used survey monkey.com to put a survey out and have had 75% of the people selected 158 but I like 166... So, I haven't decided yet which one. The biggest challenge people have with the one I like (166) is that it's not as clear (clarity) as 158.

Also, I love the fact that you gave me the black & white, black & grey, & white reverse along with color. Hopefully, when I finalize it and select yours- that I can get all 4 styles? That would be awesome- thanks!

P.S. Which one (font) do you like best? Appreciate it
