Logo Design
A logo is often the first thing that potential customers or clients think of. Simply put, it is the representation of your business. That makes it important to design a logo that fits your intended brand. Many decisions go into the creation of a logo. Should it be a symbol or an abbreviation of a company name? What color should it be? How simple should the design be? What does a particular design say about your company?
Having somebody outside of the company to offer a different perspective can be useful in the design process.
Types of logos
There are several types of logos to consider:
- Lettermarks- These are often the initials for a much longer business name.
- Wordmarks- The logo can be the entire business name, particularly if it is short.
- Pictorial marks- Logos that are graphic-based designs
- Abstract marks- These are a type of pictorial logo based upon abstract forms rather than anything instantly recognizable.
- Mascots- If you intend to have a fictional spokesperson, mascots can be a fun solution.
- Combination marks- Logos that use both words and images to represent the business
- Emblems- Words within a symbol
How do you know what type of logo to create?
Like most business decisions, the creation of a logo is highly subjective. It is part of a brand intended to represent a company and many factors can impact this decision including the target market. Questions to consider in the design process include:
- How would you like people to react upon seeing your logo?
- Who do you want to attract using your logo and why?
