Hi! Here is the logo design I came up with for you. I placed a house right in front of a stadium to reflect the literal idea of what you do, and then I added additional PSU things (helmets and a similar paw) to really appeal to the serious fans you are targeting. Let me know what you think. Thanks!
Here is another idea, with a football background instead of a stadium. This one is simpler and cleaner, depending on what kind of look you are going for!
Great designs! One item to note is that, because of trademark issues, please do not use the color palette of PMS 282 (dark navy blue). For easy reference, here is a link to Penn State's trademark documentation: http://ur.psu.edu/stylemanual/graphic_identity/grothersymbol.html.
Thanks for that info, Andrew. Are you still wanting a similar dark blue? Or something lighter perhaps? As of now, I compared the 2 in Illustrator and they are noticeably different while still both being mid to dark blues. Let me know if you want to explore other color options and I will be happy to do so. Thanks!
