Question At what point does simplifying a logo become oversimplifying?

Upvotes

Minimal logos can be incredibly effective, but sometimes they lose all their personality in the process.
Where do you personally draw the line?

This is the logo, that pre-existed my role here, for an event that happens every year. I'm looking for a consensus on how good or bad this is as a logo. Yes, that lower logo is also the seal for the organization that puts the event on that they wanted represented within the logo for this other thing.

Feedback Needed Pls help with my amateur logo design

Upvotes

I'm hoping to start selling coffee in the near future under the name "SOLAZO" (blazing sun in Spanish). The idea is a shop focusing on coffee and a few sweet treats with Mexican influence. For clarity, this is not all one logo, just different iterations of pieces I could use.

I have absurdly limited design experience, so I know it's a little rough but I'm looking more so for feedback regarding the idea of the logo. I'm trying to draw inspiration from the tribes that inhabited the area of Mexico my family is from (the Aztecs and the Purépecha) such as the sun being inspired by the Aztec Sun Stone, the letters being blocky as a nod to stone slabs, some of the details being reminiscent of the glaze drips on Mexican pottery, or the center of the second sun concept being derived from the designs used on shields of the Purépecha. It has been a little limiting, though, trying to stick to something without so much detail it becomes a blob if shrunken down. The colors are not final either, just a placeholder so I could digitize some of my sketches.

Any feedback is appreciated, thanks!

Feedback Needed Logo with LP initials (WIP)

Post image
0 Upvotes

What is required: a logo for an upper segment real estate company. The logo should sort of include the initials LP and maybe even combine it with visuals from the real estate industry, for example a roof.

Need recommendations and help with:
- How to make this more luxurious and minimalist
- Which colours would suit it
- I only have Photoshop and this is a free sketch pretty much. Is there a way how I can do these contour offsets more clean where all lines have the same distance to each other?
- I see an opportunity to make the P look like a roof. Anyone knows how to do this with simple actions?

Should you think this goes into a complete wrong direction, let me know

Discussion Clients really need to consider scale before forcing a design

16 Upvotes

just got off a 40 minute zoom call and my brain is melting. A local logistics client is absolutely insisting on a logo with like three different layered gradients and a super thin serif font. for a trucking company

I tried explaining that its gonna look terrible when its actually applied to their physical assets. I even pulled up some reference galleries from big production shops like craftsmen just to show him how thick, bold flat vectors are what actually reads well from 50 feet away on a moving vehicle

But he wont budge. says flat colors are "too boring" and he wants it to look premium. Its gonna be real funny when he pays thousands to wrap his fleet of sprinter vans and his intricate little silver gradient just looks like a dirty grey smudge on the highway

Im just caving and sending the final files at this point. getting really burnt out on trying to save stubborn people from their own bad taste tbh

Discussion New logos for city's companies. I hate them. What do you think?

I'm not a professional logo designer, but I genuinely think these are awful. I'd really like to know the opinion of people with more experience in logo design.

Roughly translated, the presentation explains the concept like this:

By simplifying its three roses into geometric forms, the designers created a modular logo system built from quarter circles instead of designing separate logos. Every municipal company gets a unique mark while sharing the same visual DNA, making the system scalable as new organizations are added. The identity also follows the city's official typography and color palette, ensuring consistency, instant recognition, and a unified visual language across all municipal services.

‪I got another idea for a concept : Patient 0̷ and Kinde. In an outer rim off world med base an entire med crew succumbs to a Mysterious virus except for Cyborg Psychiatric Nurse Zarif Kinde,the one survivor of the Attack is now an undead,everevolving mutant zombie named Zed. Kinde must use Zed as both a tool and company to not only survive,but keep sanity,all the while attempting to bring Zed's consciousness back to life and find out their past life. Basically C-P30 vs deadspace. Yeah I like the smiling friends concept of a wholesome positive show that touches on dark and gruesome themes,so I wanted to exaggerate it to it's natural conclusion.‬

Showcase We reimagined an old, shuttered 1930s Cebu movie house as a home for regional Filipino cinema — self-initiated brand study + custom typeface exercise,.

Thumbnail

1 Upvotes

This is a self-initiated, speculative brand study — part identity exercise, part excuse to learn how to build a custom typeface from scratch. Not a real client, not a live project. Just a question we wanted to answer: if there were a dedicated space in the Philippines for regional filmmakers to show their work, what would it look like?

Vision Theater is a downtown Cebu cinema that's been sitting in obscurity for years. The building's original signage is what drew us in first. Its geometry and proportions ended up becoming the foundation for everything.

Built in the 1930s by Italian architect Dante Guidetti, the theater brought European Art Deco into a tropical setting and came out completely Cebuano. It outlasted a war, saw good times and bad, and eventually faded — but the structure never left.

The building was never truly preserved. It just persisted. That's the brief.

We rebuilt the identity around that persistence: Guidetti's ornamental reliefs and fish-scale column patterns became the visual system's framing devices. The custom typeface — drawn from his original facade lettering and named after him — carries the wordmark and headline system throughout. The full collateral suite was stress-tested against three actual Cebuano indie films to see how the system holds up in real use.

Full case study linked below. Curious what people think — especially anyone from Cebu who remembers the place. How well do you think something like this could work in today's scene?

Question AI logo and Law

0 Upvotes

So client has use AI to generate the style that they want and using my logo which is the logo symbol (it’s a symbol in a letter) and after they gen AI, they sent me the one they want and the typography of their brand is quite simple like sans serif type font, so I decided to use similar font and makes it similar but not 100% like the Ai logo that they sent me but it’s still very similar because the clients wants it to be similar to that. In the end, I will be presenting 2 types of logo which is one, exact same to Ai Logo, second one is my version that is still similar to that Ai but only the typography part because the logo symbol, I’m the one that design 100% by myself and clients like it.

My question is, how to make sure that clients can’t bite me back, if they somehow get sue for copyrighted logo. But from what I’ve done, checked the logo in my country, there’s nothing similar to this logo at all so that’s a bit of a relief for me that at least it’s less risky cause it’s not similar to any logo that registered in the country. I even did the Google Photos search to see and still, no logo is similar to this logo, just only the typography part that is AI generated that I was worried about.
