What Makes a Perfect Logo?
What makes a great logo? Certainly it takes a good understanding of the brand you’re trying to represent, and the skills to translate that message into effective visual elements. But can you also add a bit of science to the art of logo design, by indentifying specific colors, fonts, and other elements that are common to the logos used by the most successful companies in the world? Would that help you design a more effective logo, or just one that looked like everyone else’s? It’s a point worth considering as you peruse the infographic below, created by folks at TastyPlacement. It breaks down the design choices used in the world’s largest brands, and offers some fun logo trivia, like 21% of the biggest brands use Helvetica, and sans serif fonts outnumber serif fonts nearly 8 to 1.
