After considering all of that information and reading their company mission, we arrived at Renaissance Home Maintenance: The rebirth of home and lawn care. From there we put together their logo, avoiding the typical "Renaissance" look and choosing more of a modern design with crisp lines. After the name and logo were approved by the client we went forward with their business cards and letterhead. To see Quality Landscaping Services become Renaissance Home Maintenance has been a very rewarding experience for all involved.
