Logo Design Brief

I'm creating a website with engineers and architects as primary end users. The site will be selling training videos for a niche software package (eQuest). I want to be able to put the logo at the beginning of the videos, as well as at the top of the website.

The software is an energy modeling/simulation package created by the department of energy (DOE - http://www.doe2.com/equest/). It is used by building design teams to help make energy efficient choices.

My main goal is to communicate that the videos will be professional, and worth spending time with. Consulting engineer's time is very valuable, so I need to make sure they understand they're getting value for their investment.

I'm up for anything as long as I can use it to tie my videos and website together.

I'd like to emphasize (introduce?) the idea that this is a building energy tool. Although I mentioned heating and cooling, a building would be a better visual representation of the tool

Budget increased to $420USD (from $170)

So I think I've given instructions for what I thought I wanted, but not what I actually wanted. I'm also slightly concerned that some of these designs won't work well with the templates I'm currently looking to use. 

I'm going to encourage designers who have already made submissions to make sure they work well with those templates (a few do already). If not, please make the modifications that make it work, and let me know which one(s) you think it will work with. 

So I'm going to include a few links to the templates I have in mind. Many of them have multiple color schemes available, so if so, please let me know what theme and color scheme your logo applies to. Some of these may work really well with logos that don't have color, only transparency, which would be perfectly acceptable if you can make it work (however, including both color and black/white/shaded/transparent versions will increase your chances of selection). Here are a few themes I'm looking at (in preferred order): 


http://themeforest.net/item/wordpress-chameleon/106556 (Needs a white/black/shaded logo with transparencies - would be nice to have color versions as well for videos) 


As far as color schemes go, I prefer more masculine colors, but anything other than that is great. I do tend to lean towards blues, whites, and grays. However that does not mean the one chosen will fall in those categories.

If you would like an extension, please let me know and I will consider.

Thanks to all the designers who have submitted work, and to everyone who is planning to! Cheers!

I'm leaning more towards pictorial/combination logo's, although that doesn't mean a wordmark logo won't be selected. I'm working to update the brief, but I keep getting errors when I try to do so, which is why I'm posting an update. 


Thanks to everyone submitting!

Any remaining designers should stay with 2D and not 3D. Thanks everyone! Some great options!

Requirements
Must have
  • Simple and clean.
Nice to have
  • I'd like to somehow play off the fact that both the software name (eQuest) and product (eLearning) have a lower case "e" followed by an upper case "Q" and "L". Not a high priority, but may cool if you can make it work.
Should not have
  • This software is not marketed towards electrical engineers, so please don't "electrify" it. Energy modeling is all about buildings, heating, cooling, and ventilation.
