PasadenaViews Real Estate TeamLogo Design Contest

For designers... Pasadena is known for craftsman style homes. We are next to San Gabriel mountains... though not sure that I want mountains too prominent in my logo. We are also known for the Rose Parade - however, any use of roses should be minimal. Just FYI...

Please READ: Thanks to all the designers for your hard work and creativity! The logos are all outstanding and given the variety of different approaches, provided us with a lot of reflection as to what we wanted to have in our final brand.

We would like to incorporate the image of Pasadena City Hall (see www.PasadenaViews.com - in the header over the How's the Market button, I'll also try to upload a photo of the city hall in the eve) in our logo if at all possible. We like more modern and softer fonts and want to stay away from hard angular lines. The image needs to be professional and not be too cutesy (although there are a few that we absolutely love, but just can't use). Think of a $million property and whether or not, the sign with the logo would be acceptable.

However, a bit of fun and personality is always welcome... nothing overly corporate.

Thanks to everyone's hard work. You are all amazing!

Here're a few links to photos of the city hall:

UPDATE... Opening up to all ideas... if you can get the city hall and get a sleek and refined look... great... if not, don't worry about it. We are looking for a logo that will differentiate us from our competition.

Although we are not set on colors, the colors need to contrast well and be current... real estate transactions can be very stressful so soothing fonts and colors work well.

Thanks again to all the designers that have already submitted ideas and those that are still considering submitting. This is an amazing site and the talent here is amazing!

A huge big thank you from my team and I to all the designers that participated in this contest. You are all very talented and I feel privileged to have had an opportunity to work with you.

Thank you again!
