Logo Design Brief

We want to start several coffee-shops in Germany. Our concept is to offer organic coffees from all over the world and to provide a small bistro. We name it Chicago Café, because Chicago has a reputation of being America's cultural capital and our stores shall show this liberal, cultural flair. We also promote LGBT. Please make sure that the logo does not include a coffee bean, because the Tchibo Company has a trademark patent in Hermany for this kind of logo design.

Updates

One quick note: We have one restriction in Germany: we can't use a coffee bean in the logo, because the Tchibo Company has a patent for this type of design and it happened In the past that they sued companies, if they tried to use a logo with a bean in it. In addition: we are not looking for a standard coffee shop logo. It can be something totally new, modern and provocative.

Hey guys! Thank you so much for your designs. At the moment, we are choosing six designs, which we will show to our shareholders and we will make a decision by the end of next week. For now, we do not need any additional designs, because we are sure, we already found our favorites. Thanks again and we will keep you informed.
