The logo will represent a new housing development at Horton Park. This is a pretty big deal – it’s not every day a six-year-old designs a logo for a real company (though sometimes I wonder). Sorry, I couldn’t find any pics of the logo. Will update when they are posted.

I know it’s lame, and it’s spec work, and I’m not supposed to care but this is something I think might be fun anyways. My apologies to my inner Howard Roark. I’ll see what I can come up with tomorrow.
