Designing a great logo takes creativity, time, and effort. It's one thing to create an attractive design that fits a company profile, and another to create a design that's one-of-a-kind and aptly carries the mission statement and values of a company.
If you want to design the perfect logo for a particular company, then it's a good idea to study popular logos first that are created by professionals across the globe. You can find all kinds of examples on the Internet.
The following are 10 great logos for different industries that you can study:
- Moving and Packing
Moving and Packing Logo Design by Ramotion
This is a good example of a logo for a movers and packers company. It's simple, but it also shows the purpose of the brand- which is to move a home to a new location. Note how the designer used a hand that looks like is picking up a home. This way, the design visually shows the work of the company.
- Real Estate
Real Estate Logo by Tailor Brands
Great logos are often the simplest, and this logo is the perfect example of that. Notice that the design doesn't use any icons or visuals elements that are related to real estate. Instead, it focuses on the initials and uses attractive fonts to give the overall logo a unique appeal. One interesting detail about this logo though, is that it's not designed by a human graphics designer but rather an AI-powered logo maker. Something to chew on? Most likely.
- Travel
Travel Agency Logo by Creative Market
There is no dearth of great travel agency logos on the Internet, and above you can see one of them. The designer has got everything right- from the choice of fonts to the icon itself. However, one thing that you can take away from this is the limited choice of colors. Even though the icon itself has multiple components and there are two words only, the colors used are only two- blue and pink, and they work perfectly!
- Music
Music Brand Logo by Stephen Boak
Music is all about creativity. So, when you are designing a logo for a music company, then you have to really push your limits. In this example, you can see that the designer has tried to do more with less. They didn't involve a variety of elements, but instead just had a unique take on the basics, and it just works!
- Robotics
