Step 2: choose values ​​that unite

As explained above, the logo is an emblem which aims to bring members together under the same common banner. 

The key values ​​of a company to create a good logo: 

  • integrity
  • The responsibility
  • Adaptability
  • professional ethics
  • Customer satisfaction
  • The know-how
  • Team spirit
  • The service
  • Excellence

Through your logo, the values ​​of your entity must be understood by your future client. 

Step 3: the type

Then comes the choice of type. Remember that a good logo is a design that lasts over time. Remember to opt for a model that is not too fanciful.

The 9 possible types of logos:

  • Pictograms 
  • abstract logos
  • The mascots

  • Letter-logos
  • Wetsuit brands
  • The emblems
  • Dynamic brands

Step 4: the right typography

The font you choose should match your logo style. You must be able to maintain your visual identity. That said, choosing the typography is not trivial, on the contrary you have to make the choice.

The text must be well readable and offer an originality that distinguishes you from others. The size of the characters also plays a very important and preponderant role for the readability of your visual.

Step 5: the colors

Regarding the colors, it is recommended not to use more than 2 to 3. Note that each color has a particular meaning. It is therefore necessary to carefully choose the colors you want to highlight because they could influence the message conveyed. 

Step 6: shape

The choice of form is essential in the creative process. Indeed, just like colors, shapes also have their own meanings.

If the circle logos refer to eternity, stability or even give a positive perception to the brand, the square logos will refer more to seriousness, rigor, strength... 

Step 7: Your store slogan

Be aware that if you decide to include the slogan in your logo, it must be perfectly illegible on all visual media.
