Logo Design Brief
I am looking for a logo that can stand on its own and the viewer would understand that it has something to do with house (or houses) and Texas. My plan is to use this across the State of Texas and modify it when (if) I move to other states such as Georgia, Wisconsin, Minnesota and Colorado.
Although it may not be obvious, 3 letters (HOT) are acronym of "houses of texas"
Logo can have words - which is my web address - Houses of Texas.
This logo is to be used on signage, website(s) and business cards
Target Market(s)
Home buyers and sellers. Should appeal to millennials and baby boomers and everyone in between. Clientele are middle to upper income earners. Logo will be used in metro Austin (and surrounding) and Metro Dallas/Ft Worth.
