Zick Zack :: Logo Design

Logo design for our clients from Germany. We created this cheerful pink and gray logo. The company is engaged in the production of handmade greeting cards, and they asked us to design a suitable logo for them. The name of the company was of great help to us because we could play with individual letters within the name itself. This is how this version was created, which the clients ultimately chose. Instead of the letter I in Zick, we put a crossed line and scissors as a point on that I. The symbolism is quite clear. We’ve all cut paper following such a line at least a few times, and since the company’s business itself is handmade greeting cards, that symbol clearly represents the company’s business. As the color pink represents playfulness and youthfulness, we thought it appropriate that such a cheerful activity should be decorated with such a color.

WHAT DO YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT LOGO DESIGN?

You have decided that you need a logo. Whether it’s a brand new logo or a redesign of an existing one, here are some things you need to know:

1. WHAT TYPE OF LOGO DO YOU WANT?

There are several types of logos. The logo can be text only (Google), monogram (LG), mascot (KFC), emblem (Stella Artois), pictograms (Apple), abstract (Nike) or combined: image and icon (Amazon). Some clients already have an idea of what type they want, this is especially true with logo redesign, but if you don’t have a clear picture of your future logo – don’t worry. You can talk to the designer that the design proposals contain more than one style in order to get a better impression that will suit you. Of course, the designer will not be able to make all the variations, but a good designer will know exactly which types are suitable for the business you are in and will give you their suggestions accordingly.

2. CHOOSING COLORS AND TYPOGRAPHY (TYPES OF FONTS)

Many companies already have their own distinctive colors and fonts that they use. In this case, the data is forwarded to the designer and the logo is created according to existing standards. Some companies don’t already have design standards, but they know roughly what colors and what font they want. In that case, it’s a good idea to send the designer some examples that you like. You can collect images from the Internet and send them as a reference. If you don’t have any ideas about colors and typography, don’t worry. Designers are experts in making such decisions for you. Along with the suggestions, you will also receive an explanation of why a specific color and font was chosen. In that way it will be easier for you to make a decision about the color system that will represent your company.

3. MEETING THE DESIGNER

4. PROPOSALS

Upon completion of the logo design, the designer will send you a presentation of the work they have done. You can choose as many proposals as you want in the business offer. The standard is three or five, and if you want more, please mention it when yoou contact us, so that we can adjust the offer accordingly. After the client studies the proposals sent and chooses the one that suits him best, the designer will make any additional changes, such as changing the color or size. When the work is done, we will send versions of the logo in vector (ai, eps, pdf) and raster (jpg, png) form so that you have all the versions needed for future applications of the logo (print, web), including a defined color system and characteristic typography.
