Retro Logo/Brand for historic warehouse loft community

Cigar Factory Lofts

I am a real estate agent specializing in the very specialized niche market of warehouse conversion lofts. I market and sell authentic and beautiful living spaces developed from reclaimed warehouse buildings in fringe neighborhoods to creative and interesting professional people who appreciate an alternative living style.

We are targeting upwardly mobile yet down to earth creative singles and couples who thrive in nonconforming environments as urban pioneers. We want the cache of living in a converted warehouse that once served as a Cigar factory to be perceived as very cool, unique, and fun!

We want a brand or identity that people will recognize both by name and by sight. It should conceptualize the look and feel of a soulful era gone by when the Rossi Cigar company used the building to manufacture cigars in the 1920/30s. Prior to that, Wells Fargo Bank had built and used the structure for horse stables, however the faded name of the Rossi Cigar Co. is still represented across the building and serves to inspire a somewhat nostalgic black-market albeit legitimate activity that we hope will attract a rich community of non-conforming self-guided, urban dwellers & pioneers. The Rossi Cigar Factory is located in Oakland, CA in a neighborhood that is trending into a cool and vibrant community, rich in history and diversity. this project of 7 units is currently under interior construction and we hope it will be ready for its "coming soon" media debut within the next 30 days. Please review the attached files to obtain more insight to physical attributes of the building etc.
