And when you&#8217;re designing your company&#8217;s logo, there are 6 essential design elements you should include.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Here we&#8217;ll go over them and explain them in more detail. In no time, you&#8217;ll be building logos that are eye-catching and memorable!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Check out our list below.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>1. Line<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The first must have design element in your logo is a line. This is the foundation of all logo design and is where you should start.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Basically, when it comes to <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.crazyleafdesign.com\/blog\/category\/graphic-design\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">graphic design<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, a line is a stroke that a pen makes connecting two points. This can be on paper or via computer.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some of the most common types of lines include:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Thick<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Thin<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bold<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Soft<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Zigzag<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dashed<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Be creative with your use of line in your logo. You don&#8217;t just have to use a typical style. You can really think out of the box and stand out.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>2. Shape<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Next, consider the shapes you want to use in your logo. There are plenty of options when it comes to shaping in logos. You can enclose your logo in one large shape or use multiples shapes to create something bigger.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Shapes often used include:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Diamonds<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Rectangles<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Circles<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ovals<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Squares<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pentagons<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Like lines, the shape is another foundational element to your logo. Think about how you can use it in unique ways.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Also, keep in mind that shape impacts logo design in both physical and virtual ways. Physically, your logo will be used in all types of print media &#8212; like pens, shirts, and packaging. You should think about how it will look in all of these areas.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On the other side of things, your logo will be used in virtual media as well. You&#8217;ll use it on your website, social media accounts, and in digital ads. The shape should stand out in these areas too.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At the end of the day, there&#8217;s one rule when it comes to shaping in logo design: keep it simple. It can be tempting to overdo it, but you don&#8217;t want to confuse your audience with over the top shapes.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>3. Fonts Also Matter When Building Logos<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After you have your lines and shapes figured out, it&#8217;s time to focus on your fonts. Sometimes, logos don&#8217;t have actual text and just feature symbols or shapes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But many logos do include written text or taglines. In these cases, font matters.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You want your font to catch people&#8217;s eye, but you also want it to be easy to read. Oftentimes, designers pick fonts that are beautiful but tough to decipher. This is a big mistake to make!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Be even more careful with script fonts because these can be tough to understand.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So decide which style of font you use: serif, sans-serif, or script. Test a bunch of options and see what works best.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For help creating your logo, check out this <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.logomaker.com\/logo-design\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">online logo design<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> tool.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>4. Color&#8217;s Important As Well<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now let&#8217;s talk about color. It&#8217;s true that color theory is complicated. However, there are also underlying rules that you can count on when thinking about your logo&#8217;s color.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Use the color wheel to see what colors work well together &#8212; whether they&#8217;re next to each other or complementary.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Also, think about the meaning of color. Red, for example, often portrays urgency and action.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For this reason, fast food restaurants use red in their logos all the time. Just think about Wendy&#8217;s, Pizza Hut, and Chick-fil-a.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-expand=\"600\" class=\"lazyload alignnone size-full wp-image-27830\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;charset=utf-8,%3Csvg xmlns%3D'http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg' viewBox%3D'0 0 1000 416'%2F%3E\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.crazyleafdesign.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/pizza_hut_logo.jpg\" alt=\"Pizza Hut\" width=\"1000\" height=\"416\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">No matter what, avoid super bright colors because these are hard to read.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>5. Negative Space<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Don&#8217;t forget about negative space! This is an important part of a logo design that you should also think about.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Many businesses utilize white or negative space to make a point. A great example is the FedEx logo, which uses negative space to create an arrow.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-expand=\"600\" class=\"lazyload alignnone size-full wp-image-27828\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;charset=utf-8,%3Csvg xmlns%3D'http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg' viewBox%3D'0 0 342 147'%2F%3E\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.crazyleafdesign.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/FedEx-logo.png\" alt=\"FedEx logo\" width=\"342\" height=\"147\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The best part about negative space is that not many companies utilize it, so if you can do it well, you&#8217;ll stand out for sure.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>6. Scale<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Last but not least, it&#8217;s crucial to think about scale. The basic principle here is to think about how your logo will look in many different sizes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It could need to be big to fit huge areas like billboards or when used as a large window decal. But it also should look great when used on smaller surfaces like business cards or stationary.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In all of these cases, your logo should be recognizable and easy to decipher.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To make sure this happens, keep your logo simple. Think of the Twitter or Apple logo. These are some of the most well-known logos and are both simple.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But that&#8217;s the secret to their success!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So the lesson to be learned here is to avoid using too many fonts, colors, shapes, and lines. Create your logo and then start simplifying it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Often, your first draft might be too complex and can be simplified. Going through this process can help you identify the core of your logo.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Closing Thoughts<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Thanks for reading about the 6 must-have design elements you need when building logos.
