I will start a website to offer and book homestays in host families.
I target families and persons who offer a room in their home or flat share as well as students, young employees, interns, volunteers and participants of work abroad programs and language courses who plan to book a homestay abroad for a longer period (several months) and would like to feel at home.
I need a logo for "Pivian Homestays" in vector format (*.eps) plus various versions of the final concept (File formats: eps (RGB & CMYK), tif (300dpi / CMYK), jpg (72dpi / RGB), png (72dpi / RGB / transparent); Versions: Full Color, Black, White, True Gray). #####
The logo should form one unit and should not consist of just a composition of different parts like text and icon.
This is important and I already got logo proposals from other designers but they seemed to misunderstood it. "One unit" means for me that the text may be part of the icon or other way round.
The logo can even be abstract but there should still be some connection with my business and it shouldn't be just an absolute phantasy logo. ##### Please use the existing PIVIAN logo as attached within this sublogo which should not be manipulated. The logo should have a clean design and not be too fancy with many different elements or colors. Main color is green (RGB: #3a9c00 / CMYK: 80, 5, 100, 0 - HKS 60K). You can also use black, other variations of green and eventually another color but green should be dominant.
##### The logo should work well on white, green (#3a9c00) and black background. It's ok if colors are inverted then and on green background some green parts of the logo may become white for example. On my website I will use the logo on green (#3a9c00) background. The logo should also be quite compact and not wasting too much space.
This also got misunderstood by previous designers. "Compact design" means that the icon can't be five times bigger than the text. In this case the text would become unreadable when you have a small version of the logo. So please keep in mind that the font should be easily readable even if you resize the logo and make it smaller, e.g. as website logo. ##### In general I like the style of Web 2.0 logos:
