it's pretty cool.
Have you tried making the inside of the flame (negative space) a bit more prominent? Or making the dark outline of the flame smaller? Not sure if it needs it, but what about a small screen on the phone too?

I'd remove inner white flame or at least would make it less detailed.

Hmm .. just read the description .. this looks like a cell phone on fire to me; and when bundled with name it sounds like some sort of an SMS application or a service. This evokes zero associations with home automation.

^ I think it's beautifully executed, a great concept - but, like Epsilon pointed out, only if the service/product is SMS/cell related.. If it is, then it looks great!

hey guys thanks for the feedback. Just to clear a few things up. Its main aim as a brand is to emphasise on the message received by the user from the home automation service. The client therefore wanted to emphasise the mobile/cell phone which is representative of the text alert the user receives

I like this, it caught my eye certainly. As has already been said by others, I'd love to see this shape with the flame simply having the same outline thickness as the rest of the phone.

thanks frank,

I tried this but it didnt quite look as good. I need to revise the flame anyway so I will upload the changes :) cheers for the feedback

Agreed with Alex above, this doesn't look like home automation, more like cellphone app. Keep working ;-)
