Modern Sophisticated Logo Design For Web Startup

LET ME TELL YOU ABOUT US:

We are an internet startup that aims for a global reach. The content on the site will be related to award winning architecture, interior design, and construction. We are an online interactive magazine/portal for world-class design that includes an online software management program for the building industry.

HERE IS WHAT WE NEED:

We are looking for a logo that will be used primarily online but will also be used on stationary, clothing, print, signage, etc.

OUR TARGET AUDIENCE IS:

The Creative Class + Architects, Architectural Drafters/Designers, Interior Designers, Residential Custom Home Owner/Builders, Real Estate Agents.

Average Household Income: greater than $85,000 annually

WE LIKE THESE DESIGNS:

The logo should be modern, sophisticated, elegant, clean, and certainly not too overstated. We would like to see designs from a simple typeface to a more complex look with an icon, etc.

The design should represent both form and function.

We like green (not dark green) and grey, however we would like to see some other colors as well.

WE ABSOLUTELY MUST HAVE (or we don't want to see) THIS IN OUR DESIGN:

It must also look good in one color, i.e. black.

We don't want to see explicitly descriptive icons like buildings etc. or cartoon characters.
