Blue,
what you show us is a part of the sketch process.what you first have to do is write down what type of company it is - describe the atmosphere of the logo you're going to make.
then you can go select fonts, shapes, images and colorcombinations fitting to the description of the atmosphere.
combine them in loads of sketches, look what logos do the job and make another selection.
after that - post the selection with about 10 totally different logos here.
good luck!
(don't sit down in front of your computer too quick. grab a sketchbook, pencil and eraser, write, make shapes etc etc)

That 'G' is nasty. Also, as I said before, reduce 'HOMES' by at least 50%, either leaving the letters in position or justify right or something. It's way too big just now. There's something uneasy about the relationship between the swoosh and the serif style font too, though there's something nice about it. maybe make the end where it comes off the 'i', rounded? not flat.

details josimarX, details.

are you saying I'm focusing on details or you want more details. I think the former so...
I'm telling him to alter what he's got to try and make the best of that 'route' if it looks shite (still) after throwing everything at it, then move on... but comments from people like 'start again' are worthless...

I agree with JosimarX- I'd even go smaller than 50% on HOMES, and that typeface is nasty-hard to even read it- all muddy
- stewart0
okay, i'll shut up now.
it is time to hit the hay here anyway.

Thanks josimarX.... I'm probably going to change the typeface and I reduced the HOMES... i'll keep picking at it and show you once i'm done..
thanks again

Please list some elegant fonts... thanks

search for yourself man-- it's the best part of designing :-]

you def need to buy some good font books for inspiration to start with.

i really like 4f, nice font and kerning etc. maybe curl the sun line a little bit more where it meets the 'i'
nice work

"HOMES" seems a little too close to the text above it though
- ganon0
increase tracking on "homes", move it further down from the top line, and decrease the horizontal line's thickness by 50%....
- Soler0
4f
agree with gannon, make the lines a lot thinner, and possibly change the color of the black text to, dark gray? something to lighten it up a bit... looking better though
- Blueman0
Yes.. once i posted it i realized that the HOMES was too close and the lines too thick.. i'll make those changes and post it up tomorrow
thanks

improved. maybe make the "house" a little more obvious/visible.
- lenusiya0
2a is nice because the house is more on the inside like we want to be part of that community when we buy the house from this company. Much better on the logo's
maybe move down homes a littleb bit more down. But you've improved a lot good job

doesn't the NT population end up "designing" every project you do?
