Intellectual, Sophisticated Modern Logo Needed

Association of Registered Building Practitioners

We are a group of individuals starting an association where all practitioners in the building field can colaborate on technical and design aspects of all building fields.
Website address is "arbp.ca" however we are shooting for the letters ARBP to be incorporated within our logo.

We strive to increase the level of professional recognition of each level. The strength of a National Association having a unified voice would result in more effective communication and liaison with industry and government along with increased influence on national issues.

Target audience are Architects, Designers, Engineers, Municipal Plans Examiners and Building Inspectors, Decorators, Home inspectors, Home Appraisers , Builders and Contractors.
High scholastic achievement among members.

Logo should easily lend to being an icon and a favicon for ease in finding within favorite. Siding towards a wax seal or embossed emblem of some sort. Unless you have something really interesting.

We are open to any ideas.

The typeface should be clear, simple and bold. We want something that stands out.

We like the new Network Solutions logo.

No reference to Canada must be made within the logo.
