Logo Design Brief

We require the modernisation of our logo (attached). The logo will be used on real estate signage (where it must be bold), as well as on stationery, business cards, building signage etc.

We are looking to project an image of: modernity, professionalism, corporate.

We are specialist commercial/industrial property agents. We have been around 50+ years and are a well recognised name in our area. Accordingly, we would not want to stray too far from our existing branding.

Updates

In terms of colour, we are liking the ones where the blue (in particular) is lightened or darkened.

Some designs are too fussy - remember, sign board is most common application, and so needs to be clear.

Dont be too focused on an image to go with the logo - I'd concentrate more on the structure of the words.

Thanks very much for the designs so far

The weakness of most of the designs so far is that they are too close to the original or too finicky. Id prefer something far more simple and modern. Perhaps with some throwback tot he colours.

I think the blue and yellow (in particular) looks too garish, which is why I suggested lightening up the colours somewhat.  Dont be too trapped by the red (either).

Type face needs to be bold, simple, modern.

see: gunningcommercial.com - this is more the style I'm thinking....

Target Market(s)

Business owners/professionals. Many people will see our logo as they drive past properties.

We also have a large number of older clients who may find dramatic change (and too modern a design) too confronting.

Requirements
Must have
  • The new logo must be able to be used well horizontally, eg on the bottom of a real estate signboard where there is lots of space horizontally but not vertically.

    Logo needs to be fairly simplistic, easy to read and impactful. Bear in mind that the most common application for the logo is on real estate signboards which are 6 x 4' and are located outside buildings, so cannot be too fussy. It will also be used on the internet
Nice to have
  • We are most likely to select a logo that works in with the current colour scheme (broadly sky blue and yellow)... see website: www.coutts.com.au
Should not have
  • Images associated with residential property - we are industrial agents and only deal with warehouses, offices, sheds, land, shops. No houses please.
