As a graphic designer I develop logos since ca. 30 years.
The procedure is allways the same:
1. Briefing with the client, his wishes and ideas etc. …
2. Brainstorming, allone or in a group. Catch ideas, see what other desingner had for solutions, get inspiration but don't copy.
3. The most important part is scribbling, scribbling and scribbling… one of the scribbles is sure in the choice.
4. Drawing the scribbled logo in a vector drawing software like XDP – a good logo is only vector no bitmap or bitmap effects like shadow, trancparency, bevel etc.
See if the ready logo works for all purposes, B&W for in ex. a stamp or in color for ex. offset-, screen- and digitalprint, newspaper, t-shirt, lighter, ballpoint pen etc. …
Allways when I work on logos I accept the typographical rules but no rule without exception, if it fits well.
So a process will take time. A good logo design is not a thing to do between two pots of coffee.
No. 2 is my favorite one on your list. I've been doing computer graphic design since my mid twenties (I'm in my 50's now) but I'm hardly the best. And I am well known for two things. I do everything quickly (I wrote my first book in one week, not kidding) and I make a great cup of coffee. LOL!
Ernie, your input is refreshing without being offensive. Thanks.

Mark, party pooping here:

Not the same font but added some stitching inside around an inset of two step contour to produce an "interior design".
Also the door effect was too inviting so I placed the door frame and it cast shadow to the same colour as the circle. i don't know what the circle brings to the logo; it keeps telling me "Circle home!"

Acorn, I like the door frame shadow effect you have there (not sure how you did it but it's cool!). I decided for the "plain" looking font as the neat effect you created wasn't visible (as a stitch, looked more line a line) at a smaller scale, but I like your take on it. You are quite talented indeed! Good job!!

Mark, two boxes, pink and white for the door.
Grouped, cloned, flipped and skewed. White box then set to the shadow colour.

Another version, but this one won't pass as a logo.Attachment 118229
