Logo Design Brief
We would LOVE an updated logo design with new font for our boutique independent real estate business based in Mudgee, NSW, Australia.
Background:
- Operating since 1973.
- Current logo of "the house of the rising sun" been in use since 1991 and no longer reflects Mudgee's vibrant culture or our position as the leading real estate business.
- Mudgee is a thriving regional country town 3.5 hours west of Sydney, known for it's acclaimed wineries, agriculture, produce, arts, cafe culture and tourism.
- Our business is known for it's professionalism, expert local knowledge and getting results and community involvement.
What we want:
- A new logo and contemporary font that is simple, strong and understated.
- Potentially for the logo to be used as a stand alone design (with no company name).
- Using our colours of red on yellow (Pantone 485c on 109c)
- lower case font and ideally stacked under neath (i.e. each word on a new line) and left aligned.

Hi, we really appreciate your design so far. We are looking for a simple and strong logo to go with a contemporary font. No House or roof as this is too generic for the real estate industry. Added Tuesday, August 11, 2015
