Logo Design Brief

We need a new icon-based logo for start.me.

start.me offers a web-based personal start page with an integrated bookmarks manager, support for news feeds and a library with thousands of widgets that help you connect to popular services and custom data sources.

start.me is about:
- bringing everything to one place (under one roof)
- your home in the cloud
- widgets that you place on a page

We need a icon designed that can serve as our logo. This icon will be used:
- inside our application
- on print paper
- on external websites (website owners will place this icon on their site, to allow their visitors to add their website to their start page).
- inside a browser toolbar (works as a bookmarklet).

The logo need to be simple, stylish, powerful and easily identifiable.

We have drawn a concept for the logo. See attached. The "S" symbols a home-icon and obviously is the first letter in "start.me" We need a designer to make it stylish and finish it.

- Add some subtle shadow in background

- If you want to use different colors than grey (not required), use blue:
#1b5480
#287bbc

- We'd like the logo to become a bit less "square" / hard and more "rounded" / playful.

Finally, three example of icon-based logos that we like:

Hi,Someone pointed us towards this logo of a home-icon that we actually like a lot. http://www.iconarchive.com/show/100-flat-icons-by-graphicloads/home-icon.htmlHowever, it needs a subtle "touch". We're thinking of a maybe a cloud-illustration in the right top, to refer to the point that that this is a cloud service.Or maybe something with a bookmark-icon or + sign or something completely different.Who has a good idea?This logo will be seen by 100,000's of users, so it needs to be very slick.
