Logo Design Brief
I need a logo designed for our small, historic Airbnb in south Florida in the Palm Beach Regency style. Palm Beach Regency uses colors like messel green, pink, and gold. Bamboo and rattan are common materials. The final design should communicate Old World Carribean elegance and style.
We attached a number of pictures to give an idea of what we are looking for.
1. We want to use the Kemble Shop logo as the primary model. We really like the bamboo style letters. We want to do something along these lines but better and different. We are open to colors pink and/or messel green. I included a pic of what messel green looks like. We are also open to some variation of the pink, perhaps with a rose secondary color, which I also included a pic of.
2. We use a shiny metallic gold/brass alligator as our mascot. We want this in the logo. I included three pictures of it. If you need a better picture, please let me know. We are open to angle, but prefer a sideways shot of it. The gold alligator can be placed somewhere around "The Golden Alligator" logo. We are flexible and open to ideas.
3. The colors of our Airbnb building are the same as the Audubon House in Key West, FL. I attached two pics of the Audubon House. It's colors are Richmond Green and pink. We included the pics for inspiration and style.
4. The picture with the pink neon sign saying " Find Me Under the Palm Trees" and the jungle wall are actual pictures of the entrance to our Airbnb. I shared this for style ideas. We are open to adding "Find me under the palm trees" to the logo design as well.
5. We are open to a bamboo border to the logo like Kemble. We are also open to a chinoiserie style border and design like the picture of the pillow I attached below. Perhaps the metal gold alligator can be built into some design like the picture of the pillow along with banana or manserat leaves and a chinoiserie style border.
6. I included a screenshot of The Colony Hotel's website. They use a border of banana, Manserat, and palm leaves to frame thire logo. We are open to this as well if it looks good, but not required.
