8. THESE ARE THE FOLLOWING ATTRIBUTES
TO HAVE AN EFFECTIVE LOGO DESIGN:
Symbols- instantly make people associate traits or
messages with a company, group, product, or
service. Through symbols, people find it easier to
recognize, identify, or recall images than texts.
Colors- is very powerful. Every color can create varied
emotions within customers. Red is a warm color. It conveys
strength, passion, and excitement. Blue is cool. Rainbow
colored logos carry meanings that are friendly, fun, and
youthful.
9. Words/Texts- In today’s fast-paced world, many of
the most popular and successful companies prefer
logos with simple and easy-to-grasp texts. In this
way, the logo is easier to see and remember.
Shapes, Symmetry, Balance- The use of simple,
geometric shapes like the triangle, square, and circle
are quite popular in logo design. Simple geometric
shapes appear more balance than other shapes.
10. Free-form- logos that are free-form should not
appear like they are about to fall, loose, or look
unstable even if they do not have even or straight
lines or predictable shapes.
Fonts- the style of the lettering speaks a lot
about the visual story of a logo.
11. Proportions, Size- logos should be
versatile and flexible for their many uses.
Uniqueness and Individuality- Create
logos that are elegant, meaningful,
and timeless.
