Logo Design Brief
I have set up a new business "Dutch Pacific Exchange LLC.". This is for the horticulture industry, I am starting this on the west coast in Los Angeles (the pacific part). As for the Dutch reference, I like the idea of a windmill or a holland/netherlands underlying theme. Nothing flowery though, it can even be a twist on a contemporary design with some old school heritage. Something subtle but eye catching, color but not loud. I like blues and greens with greys, even some oranges... I've drawn out a few sketches with the name in the logo, on the side, completely separate... I uploaded some that appealed to me in certain ways, none were THAT specific but i think you can get the idea. Professional and playful.
As for the name in the logo, I thought about just using "Dutch Pacific" instead of the entire thing since it got a little long but I'm not opposed as long as it does look cluttered. Also "Est. 2015" & "Los Angeles, CA" in it somewhere, doesn't have to be be overly visible but that is important.
However, I am NOT stuck on most of this specifically, I enjoy some creativity.
Thank you so much for you help.

One one side I would like the name "Dutch Pacific" big and the "exchange llc" smaller and underneath. On the other side i would like the logo on the left and info on the right starting about 3/4 of the way down formatted to the right side of the card. A light, medium colored background, just not white. Some gradient tinting/shading would be nice for this.
