Title: Branding WIP
Post by: Magnus Skogsfjord on June 04, 2016, 05:46:16 PM
So, I'm in the process of building a portfolio, so I put some effort into designing a personal logo. I started by sketching up some variants in illustrator, and taking it further by building a 3D-variant of it. I'm a fan of the low-poly look, so it is kinda inspired by that.

This is a bit different than what I usually do, but I hope it's somewhat likeable nonetheless. Any feedback on either design or renders is, as always, appreciated:)

Hmm, that's a very difficult task!

Your idea reminds me to the logos of the Autodesk products.

I'm looking forward to the final version

Very nice Magnus, the first one, which is my personal favourite and yours I suspect ;), looks like an art installation in a gallery, very cool  :D

Thanks! Yeah, it can be a tough long process that one.

I guess it kinda has the look of the autodesk product indeed. I should probably have mentioned that I will not be choosing any of these as the final version. The idea is to make the shape the recognizing factor, and let the colors/textures of the logo itself be more dynamic. That way, I can customize it depending on the context. You can check another image I've added to get the idea of the flat version of the logo. Thanks for your comment :)

Thanks John! Appreicate it:) I'm not quite sure about my own favorite yet. I'm actually leaning towards the clean white one with the IES spots.

Great exercise! I like them all except the stone one.

123 looks really good (maybe without the bright spot on the ground). 122 is the strongest piece though.

Thanks for your feedback Josh. Valuable input! I see the issue with the bright spot. Probably gonna be an easy fix with PS.

My favorite has to be the final image! Content like that on a business card would look amazing.

Cheers Joe! Well, that would be the best case scenario to end up with that. Thanks!

This is fun. Lots of cool variations to look at. I like the simple, geometric logo.

Very cool. I really like what you did with the "toon" one. Several effects/tricks came together really well on that. Really interesting.

The wood and stone one is the best. Nice work.

Thank you! I had a small epiphany myself on that one, by utilizing the shadow effect to make it look lit. Appreciated :)

A small update to this guy. It kinda goes the wrong way storywise, but I thought it would be cool to show off a doodle like this.

Pencil from GrabCAD.
