Logo Designer and The Sense of Design

Not everybody can be a designer and not every designer can be a good designer, there is a lot of difference between a good designer and a designer, In my view a designer who think and act according to what he thinks about the design can be a good designer.



A good Logo Design Has Rich Color and Great font to go with it


Logo design generally provides the impression of a simple graphic done without too much fuss, may be sometimes some logos are just text based without any graphic accommodating them, so it does look quite an easy task to design a logo, just open any graphic design creator software preferably something that creates vector graphics and start playing with the text as you type it. Create some uneven weird shapes (lunatic designers call it abstract shapes, don’t listen to them) doesn’t this sound easy. It does sound easy, but believe me logo designing is not that an easy job.

To understand logo designing you need to understand what logo designing actually is ! in a nutshell a logo design can be described as a graphical representative of your business, so it does that kind thing but your logo should represent the qualities of a good business too. it should convey certain things like trust to the target audience, if a logo fails to convey such things then its not worth to have such a logo or may be you shouldn’t call it a logo.

So the question here arises what should a good logo design be? And how it should be? There are many factors that play a major role in defining a logo (do you still think that logo designing is an easy job?). First thing what do you want to see in your logo, what is your vision for it, It matters most. The kind of business or services that you provide, its something that doesn’t need a genius to figure out that a logo should reflect the kind of business the owner of the logo has, you can’t put a house roof on top of a tech firm logo (believe me there are some people who would do this amazing mistake), third thing is creativity in the logo design for which the designer of the logo has to bear the maximum responsibility, there are other things like current industry standards which is also an important factor because no one will be interested in an outdated logo. Also last but not the least it should have a sense of artistic touch to it.

Different Types of Logos

Logo Design is an important of any business, without it a business is almost unrecognizable..

....OK this is not an article this is a blog post I guess so I don't need to be formal here, I get bored to write articles on the article submissions sites experts say they are good to gain quality backlinks for your site but they surely make you look formal and official, here as a blogger you have the freedom to break free and write in the best creative way you want.

Now on to our main topic logo designing - I can broadly classify types of logo design into 4

1- Wordmark
2- Lettermark
3-Emblem
4-Combination Mark

There may be other style of logo designs ( but this is what i know, honestly I don't know about other stuff)

The best Example of a Wordmark logo is Facebook logo

The best Example of  a Lettermark Logo is IBM logo

Emblem logo examples can be retro badges or logos like HarleyDavidson logo

Will provide more info on them in the next post.

Thanks All.
