How LumberOneCorp started their logo & hosted website journey
Who are you known as?
Lumber One
What’s your company slogan?
Dont knock on wood, COUNT ON IT........or something similar
Tell us a bit about who you are and the people you reach
We will start with providing firewood by the cord. Once that is rolling I will start phase 2 where I will harvest trees off some property I'm trying to purchase (or purchase excess logs from trucking companies) and mill those trees into lumber (such as 2x4s, 1x10s, tongue and groove wood flooring, tongue and groove wood interior siding, tongue and groove ceilings). Phase 3 will be providing custom wood products by offering services such as laser cutting/burning/marking of wood products (and other materials such as plastics and even steel and glass). Phase 4 would be to offer highly custom services such as CNC lasering and CNC routing of wood products that result in 3D wood carvings and such.
Target audience would range from people who need/use firewood to the DIY homeowner who can use lumber that is somewhat cheaper then Home Depot/Lowes, to artists who would need CNC capabilities in their art, to finally the owners of multi-million dollar homes (ie mountain cabins that are 5000 sqft homes that require custom mouldings and such).
What industry do you think your business is most related to?
What colors do you want to see in your design?
Other color requirements
I'd like to explore the following colors:
Yellows: Energy, intellect, fun and youth.
Blues: Knowledge, trust, calm and honesty.
Dark neutrals: Formality, mystery, exclusivity and luxury.

Other notes
Would like to have some sort of American Flag in the logo somewhere.
The 1st 3 pics below are kinda neat. If you can use some of the ideas in them then great. The LAST pic is of the mill that I'm planning to purchase. Might be a VERY GOOD idea to somehow incorporate it into my logo AND website.
I've attached some pics that might be helpful...
The last pic is of the mill I'm wanting to purchase....Maybe use this pic somehow.....
Surprise me folks. Im counting on you guys.....THANKS
What do you have in mind for the style and theme of the logo and hosted website?
Want something kindy edgy, and dark....maybe something with some tribal tattoo type styling....just thinking out loud here...
