Hi Sean,

I have a follow up question.

You have claimed the colors Black and White.

Did you want these colors to be part of your mark?

If so, you need to add these colors in the mark description. I suggest:

The mark consists of the stylized letters "BH" inside a stylized house with the lowercase letter "B" forming the chimney and inner top left of the house and the lowercase letter "H" flipped to the left and forming the door frame and window of the house. The bottom of the letter “B” and the letter “H” are in black and the house is in white. The background is in black.

If you would like to NOT claim color, you should let me know and I can take care of this for you.

Please let me know what you would like to do at your earliest convenience.

Best,

From: Sean McCann [mailto:slyte@backhouse.us]
