Color offers an instantaneous method for conveying meaning and message in your logo designs. It’s probably the most powerful non-verbal form of communication we can use as designers. Our minds are programmed to respond to color. The subliminal messages we get from color shape our thoughts. As humans our very survival is hung on the identification of color. If you have noticed so all logos in the above showcase has variation in colors and this is one of the technique to grab the viewers. Designers need to communicate with people and those who do, their logos are successful.

Flame Logos Designs Inspirations

The topic which I will be discussing today is very different in nature because so far we never talked on that. As from the title you got the idea, it’s about flame or fire logos. Flame can be utilized in many ways to expand the business and similarly designers have done tremendous job in this regards too and they have made very catchy and impressive logos by using flame element. We can also make these logos on adobe photo shop. The program includes a library of shapes, which can be instantly drawn, even if the user has no artistic ability. If the logo is created on a transparent background it can then be used on a web page and the colors or design of the web page will show through the transparent area of the logo. Once you learn to make a basic fire logo in Adobe Photoshop, you can go on to create your own unique logo.

Logo is basically the main essence or the tool for your business and it should be attractive in nature. Logo must be clear in appearance and must a good communicator. Here is the list of some flame logos which I have collected:

 

Flame Design: 1

 

Flame Design: 2

 

Flame Design: 3

 

Flame Design: 4

 

Flame Design: 5

 

Flame Design: 6

 

Flame Design: 7

Flame Design: 12

 

Flame Design: 13

 

Flame Design: 14

 

Flame Design: 15

 

Flame Design: 16

 

Flame Design: 17

 

Flame logos are not that much easy to design and it requires great amount of concentration and creativity. If you have noticed in above mentioned logos designers have played very well with the flame and used the fire mainly in its original color. They have not played with the color scheme in most of the logos, which is a good part and it has made the bond with the text and the background.

I hope you like that and will be looking to hear from your end. I will appreciate your views. If you want another creative but inspiring list of logos and reviews of company logos, leave a comment or subscribe to our RSS feed. You can also follow us on Twitter and Face book ! :)

20 Examples of Mind blowing Droste Effect Photos

Today I have decided to write something new and interesting in nature. So, I have concluded to talk about “Droste Effect”. Actually it is a Dutch word and its meaning is recursive images or the photographs. It is very unique form of art and simply can be done by placing two mirrors and from designing point of view, this Droste effect can also be accomplished by using Photoshop application that can make Droste effect very inspirational and give it a very awesome look. An image exhibiting the Droste effect depicts a smaller version of itself in a place where a similar picture would realistically be expected to appear. This smaller version then depicts an even smaller version of itself in the same place, and so on. Only in theory could this go on forever; practically, it continues only as long as the resolution of the picture allows, which is relatively short, since each iteration exponentially reduces the picture’s size.

Now let’s have a look on the show case:

Art arises when the secret vision of the artist and the manifestation of nature agree to find new shapes. All of these images are created using the Escher Droste effect formula and the software are called Mathmap and the GIMP. Here is the link of Droste Effect Tutorial, On Flickr. If you are interested, you can try to see the magic’s when math meets image.

I hope you have enjoyed this series of Droste effect images and I will be looking for your comments and will appreciate your feedback.

Amazing Pencil Art Logo Collections

Logos are the true reflection of your business and you do get recognition from it. Each and every company tries to focus on their logos and in this regard they do get help from professional designers. It is very essential to have a link between your logo and your work. It must represent your nature of work and must have a communication with the audience. Most designer’s uses pencil to create new and unique logos. They sometime use pencil in different shapes like bending them, molding them or re-shaping them into new forms. Apart from that by using pencils some amazing artwork can also be done and in this article you can see that. Jennifer Maestre, one of the creators of pencil sculptures, said that "To make the pencil sculptures, I take hundreds of pencils, cut them into 1-inch sections, drill a hole in each section (to turn them into beads), sharpen them all and sew them together."

Here is the mix list of pencil art, some are logos and some are sculptures which are made from pencil. Let’s have a look now:

20 Expressive Logo Designs – Emotions and Sentiments!!

In today’s time when there are so many products and services out there, it is really difficult for small business owners to differentiate themselves from their larger opponents. Therefore every business wants to gain a competitive edge against the larger businesses. The preliminary way to compete against the business rivals is "Branding", and one of the major parts of a branding strategy is a logo. A logo design is an asset that differentiates a business from the rest and let the company work individually.

The most successful way of branding is to connect with customer’s emotions. No matter how similar your product or service is to your competitors, you can make people buy your product by reaching to their emotional level. In this article I have tried to gather some impressive logos which are connected with our emotions and sentiments. In logo designing it is observed that professionals mainly use sad, happy or laughing emotions because they have a close bondage with our emotions.

Let’s have a look on the list:

 

Return to joy

 

TIPYO

 

SAD Emotion

 

Electric Smiling

 

Dermato Logic

 

Pozzitiva

 

Good Will

 

The Happy Cup

 

Smile Pathway

 

Kids Style

 

Blink

 

Answer the cry

 

Laugh Attic

 

King Hams

 

Mouserious

 

KOAL

 

Father joy

 

Mobile Ceria

 

Crazy Tomato

 

Angry Teeth

 

It’s important for your business to possess a logo that can easily connect with people’s emotions so you can win their trust and consideration. Logos leave great impact on people mind and they do recall the brands by their logos instead of any tag line or the punch line. The competition is tough now days so if you are in this market so you need to first develop a sense what exactly logo meaning is and why to make it attracted in nature. The easiest way to grab the traffic is to play or hit their emotions so that they can relate themselves with your product or services.

I hope you liked them all and it’s really hard to select which one is the best. Thanks for reading this article. If you want any other informative article just like this one so, leave a comment or subscribe to our RSS feed. You can also follow us on Twitter and Face book ! :)
