Logo Design Brief
I need a new logo for my handyman service. I work by myself and I do small bathroom and kitchen renovations. I do some plumbing, electrical, and carpentry work. I am kind of a jack of all trades. I would like something that looks simple and professional. I would like to use the logo on new business cards, my service van, uniforms, website etc. I liked some logos with a blue print type background. Many guys incorporate a roofline of some sort. Some of them look very nice but a lot of them look unoriginal and outdated. I would like something that clearly looks like a handyman company but I don't want the clip art hammer and pouch type deal. I like navy blue and my uniform is navy blue dickeys. I like the Seattle seahawks colors. The name of my business is not very original so I hope my logo has some pizazz. I am open to pretty much anything. I am excited to see what you can come up with!
I want Swope to be alone on top in big letters. Home improvement in smaller letters underneath. I like drafty lines like blue prints or Leonardo Davinci.
You could put the S in a box with draft lines intersecting it. You could make the O in SWOPE look like some kind of a sun dial or virtruvian man.
I like Swope in navy blue. Maybe home Improvement could be grey and you could use a hot green line separating the two words.
Updates
Swope should be alone on top in big font. Home Improvements should be below in smaller font.
No hammers or screwdrivers.

Can anybody use the Red October Stencil for "SWOPE"?

I am seriously considering guaranteeing payment. I would like to have three designs that I think are worth $200 before committing. We are close though. Good job everybody.

I would like to see somebody do a house logo where the word swope fills up the inside of the house similar to the way it was done on the tv show Home Improvement. The s would be the smallest and then the letters would get bigger as they reach the peak of the house. the house would not be symmetrical though. it would have a longer shallower slope on the left side. maybe a small chimney on the ride side of the slope.

Requirements
Must have
- Swope must be alone and then Home Improvements is underneath. I dont want to see Swope Home and then Improvements underneath. The two words, Home and Improvements should be together and the same font and smaller
Nice to have
- If you look at the one that is Todd Construction, I like how the "todd construction " has nice bold font and then the custom framing looks like it was painted. It contrast but I like it. I also like the 2x4 logo above it.
I would like to see somebody take the orange and grey lines in one picture and combine it with the font that is in "drafty". Swope would be big solid normal font in black and "drafty font" would be underneath in the form of Home Improvement. Similar to the way Todd construction is done.
The colors I chose are just suggestions.
Should not have
- no hammers, screw drivers or wrenches. i dont think I want to see a whole house. I like the abstract stuff. You can try to make some with a roofline but I want it to look new. There are so many construction logos out there that have a roofine. Be unique.
