Here are some of the logos I created from concept to final.
When creating logo, for me its essential to follow certain steps and procedures in order not to forget any details which may help me during the process.
Usually I follow those simple 5 rules to achieve the best in shorter time
1) Research
* Helps me to see what's already existing and how to stand out from the crowd
2) Mind Mapping
* Helps me write all the details and connect the dots from which I can combine stunning details
3) Concept Creation / Sketch
* Sketching the ideas that I've got from Step 1 and 2 + extras on the fly
4) Illustrate
* Normally when I finish sketching I rate my sketches and select 3 concepts (minimalistic, classic, all rounder) to continue illustrate digitally in computer / software
5) Colors
* This is a science on itself but it all depends if the client has already chosen the colors or if they have existing brands, otherwise I try to stick with the Color Harmony rules using Paletton or Adobe Color Wheel.
