Describe who/what this design is about

This company is about restoring a particular style of heritage home built circa 1820-1890's in eastern Ontario, Canada. They are characterized by a simple one and a half or two story plan with a single front gable window and porch. They are typically red brick or grey stone. Most of these homes were built along the St. Lawrence seaway which became the Highway 401 corridor between Montreal and Toronto. As development continues in these areas, many of them are disappearing. It is our hope to acquire and restore these homes to preserve a piece of our heritage for future generations.

What kind of design are you looking for?

Illustrative

How would you describe the effect in your logo:(Check all that apply)

Traditional
Rustic

What colors would you like?

Red, White/grey & blue. The colours of the Union Jack flag, representing the United Empire Loyalists who came to Canada in the late 1700's, which I was hoping to be light in the background. It should also incorporate a simple representation of the front elevation of one of these homes. A good example can be found when you Google (image) " Inge Va house Perth, Ontario". Then just the text: LOYALIST Homes "heritage restored" tag line

How many colors do you want in your design?

Do you have any additional suggestions or ideas?

The arrangement of the text can be similar to the logo of my other company. Please see
