Great Article, I apply a lot of these principles to my own logo projects as well. A lot of people (clients) don’t seem to realize just how much work and thinking is really involved in creating a great logo.

[...] A simple logo design allows for easy recognition and allows the logo to be versatile & memorable. Good logos feature something unique without being overdrawn. While in college in the mid-70’s an instructor introduced me to the K.I.S.S. Principle of design; which translates to: Keep It Simple, Stupid. It does convey a very important design consideration.

[...] On the other hand, a logo is a visual symbol of a company. Its purpose is as an identifier, and it should be reflective of your brand. It is often the first message potential customers received about your organization and is a powerful form of recognition ( just ask The Gap ). Metaphorically, if your company is a book, then your logo is the cover. If crafted correctly, it conveys certain attributes about your company, i.e, strength, creativity, longevity, stability, etc. It is a part of your overall identity. For these reasons, your logo is quite important. And in order to be truly effective, your logo should be simple, memorable, timeless, versatile, and appropriate. [...]

It was refreshing to read your article. Even as marketing professionals, we sometimes overlook the very basics of brand devices (i.e. logo in this case). I have bookmarked your page to share with others in the office.

Thanks,

Most definitely true. I think the the most undermined key aspect you speak of here is the APPROPRIATE part.

Many young designers tend to sink into the visual aspect rather without taking in consideration the long term effect the logo needs to have on the viewer.

Thank you for this post, definitely something any designer or marketer should read
