Need a Logo?


A good logo:

  • must attract attention – be bold and demand its viewers to pay attention
  • must have longevity – try not to focus the logo on current fashion trends that could easily become outdated. Opt rather for a more classic approach that could stand the test of time. E.g. Nike, Coca-Cola
  • must be simple – the communication should be clear and uncluttered. Try to limit your colors to two or three rather than create a visual overload
  • must work as a unit - the image and text should form visual synergy and should not appear to be two separate entities
  • must be pleasing to the eye
  • should be unique and memorable
  • captures your target audience and accurately represents your business’ character
  • is technically sound:
  • should be scalable. In other words, it should work on a small format e.g. your letterhead as well as a large format e.g. your building’s signage
  • should also translate well into black and white for the purposes of photocopies and faxes
