The mark itself is open
Six ways to make
Music House unmistakable.
The current pad house is the control. Five new studies test stronger silhouette, clearer music behavior, and better recognition at the sizes people actually see.
Lead recommendation
Advance the refined pad house.
It preserves the equity already built into the pad house, removes visual noise, creates a stronger door, and survives favicon scale without becoming a color cloud. Advance the portal house beside it as the bolder challenger.

Decision frame
What earns the next round.
Optical tests should come before preference voting. Score the symbols in monochrome first, then add the Music House spectrum.
Favicon clarity
The silhouette stays identifiable at 16 and 24 pixels without relying on color.
Dual meaning
Music and house register in the first second, with neither idea feeling added later.
Production range
The same geometry works in one color, full spectrum, motion, embroidery, and app icon crops.
Distinctiveness
The mark avoids the common sparkle, play button, waveform circle, and generic equalizer tropes.
