I understand and I wanted to share my thoughts after watching “The Art of Logo Design | Off Book| PBS Digital Studios” Youtube video that was provided. It’s amazing how logos can represent a message or an invisible word. I have always loved the how can a company tell its story or the meaning behind it, in an invisible way through a logo. When a logo design is based on simple ideas yet complex work, that’s how it becomes memorable to people, Therefore becomes successful too.
I found the video very interesting especially on this last phrase “ A logo can’t express but should express whats important”. The idea that a logo isn’t a brand but it’s part of the identity has me thinking about the phrase. People should won’t know what company is it or what they do unless they find a visual aid to help them understand. Its like when some people say ” I can’t place a name on a person unless I see their face”. I think this would be a good example. I understand better what creating a logo needs and what it has to be in the end
“The Art of Logo Design” Each logo expresses a particular feeling and meaning that bring to people. as time changes, the logo changes too. It feels great to see how each logo changes and the meanings behind it. I love the phrase” its an identifier but its also something that stands in for who you are”
