Industry type

Construction

What kind of design are you looking for?

Symbolic

Abstract Mark

How would you describe the effect in your logo:(Check all that apply)

Clean/Simple
Modern
Serious

What colors would you like?

Blue - Green - Orange - Charcoal We like these colors in general, but am leaving the creativity and combinations to you all. We are open to suggestions.

How many colors do you want in your design?

not sure

Do you have any additional suggestions or ideas?

Absolutely no play on the letters of the name. They are an acronym for my children and are not to be used in the logo.

A thought, but not a necessary need for implementation...In my business, I prepare a schedule that indicates tasks and their respective durations for every project I construct. The schedule is in the format of a GANTT chart. Take a look online at the various gantt charts and you may be able to derive some ideas from their appearance.
I also DO NOT want any roofs with chimneys, houses, tools, people, hard hats, detailed buildings. Keep it clean/simple.

The name does not need to be in all CAPS. Whatever you think works.

I just dropped a few of you and would like to thank you for your submissions. This has really been a fun process. I am nowhere near making a decision. I will be having a selection 'party' with the family this weekend. I can tell you what the front runners are in no particular order. Input from five (5) people leads to 10 selections, but that's what this is about: 2, 16, 26, 39, 46, 47, 52, 72, 83, 107 and I have not even evaluated the new ones. I'll have some new eyes on them this weekend and get back to you. Thank You again.

To all designers: We are amazed by all of the submissions and applaud you on your creativity and design talents. Thank You. I have made several eliminations based on much of the feedback received and offer the following: 30-34: The GB was too ornate We don't care too much for any circular figures, although #26 remains. We like the colors in the remaining submissions (the blue/charcoal, really like the colors in #22) We would like to see a few more submissions with the name instead of GB (wife and I are battling over this) #20 - can you try this one in a larger size #21 - mixed reviews on this. I'm not loving the G, but maybe a revision would work I'll post later this week. Thank You all again for your work.

Thank you all for the prompt entries: I'll start with the ones I do not care for: #3 & #4 are too busy and have too much color, so I would recommend keeping the colors to just 2 max. #5 may just be too busy. I would eventually need to make this into a logo for a shirt and need something that can translate. I don't care for the confinement of the box in #6 or the roof like symbol in #10 Leaders are #1, #2 & #9. While I did not think I would like a play on individual letters, I am liking the GB concept. I will be sharing this with family and friends soon for input. Looking forward to this process. Thank You
