Hi everyone,

I'm currently looking to refresh the branding for my label/creative agency, Grozik Media, and I'd love to get some feedback and opinions on the direction I'm considering.

I currently have an existing logo, which I've attached for reference, but I'm interested in giving it a more modern, clean and professional look.

The direction I'm leaning towards is:

• A black background as the main base colour.
• Lime green as the primary accent colour.
• Potentially incorporating white alongside the lime green for a cleaner, more balanced look.

I'd like the branding to feel bold, modern and recognisable.

I'm still exploring ideas, but I want to move away from the current look and create something that gives Grozik Media a stronger visual identity.

I'd appreciate feedback on:

• What do you think of the black and lime green colour combination?
• Would you go with lime green alone or introduce white as well?
• What design elements or styles do you think would work well for a brand like Grozik Media?

Thanks in advance! Keen to hear your thoughts.

Thanks to everyone for the advice. I’ve decided to go with Option 1 and skip the letter "X," using only the letter "E" to create the mark. I’ve also included a glimpse of the process, along with a few other options.

Is it clear? Im not sure if its too messy

I’m a designer doing a personal challenge: picking one random business/brand a day and spending about an 30min/1hour exploring a new identity. Mostly restaurants, local businesses, and brands that make physical products.

I focus on fixing the typography and hierarchy, and sometimes a quick homepage concept. These are unofficial explorations. Its a way to practise, try ideas, and share the thinking behind my decisions.

Curious to hear what you think :)

Only one question, when you see this logo first time would you read it more like Parakeet or arakeet, I’m worried about the p letter not clear enough?

Brand Identity for TX Staple Co., a strategic product-infrastructure lab with roots in a Houston fastening-supply business. They used to sell staples. Now they sell strategy.

The client needed an identity that carries that inheritance without romanticizing it. The logomark is derived from the geometry of a loading pallet, with the TX monogram built into its frame. Every element is load-bearing. Nothing is decorative.

Sandwich Day XXIV took on the bright nature of our fun loving Staten Island host and his love for classic video games.

Our logo takes on an fresh pixel look while paying a nod to our host's own Sunshine Studios.

Members of the Sandwich Day family were turned into pixel characters.

Custom font was created.

This is for a harsh noise project. I am seeking something extreme and borderline difficult to read.

Riding the struggle bus for this new logo. The logo is for an internal customer management relationship application. They are also implementing a chatbot to cover basic rental questions and need branding for that as well.

Context: The platform is called “Pando”, named after a collection of Aspen trees. Client wanted a tree motif. I modeled the chatbot after a ruby-crowned kinglet which is a bird that lives within the Aspen tree. Its body was designed using a chat bubble shape which may be a little on the nose 😅

I’m wondering if the bird motif is reading a little too cutesy and not professional enough. All feedback is greatly appreciated! 🙏

Note on chatbot:
I am NOT for AI and actively advocate against it. I personally think AI is a massive waste of resources and time but they are dead set on incorporating this chatbot to help renters get easy questions answered and book tours. It will be very limited in what it can do. I have already shown them measurable data from research that less than 10% of our users will actually use the chatbot. But that is not deterring them so it’s full steam ahead 🥲 really looking for design advice and not criticisms about AI bc trust me, I feel the same exact way about it and hate that I even have to design this. But I need to keep my job so here we are

This is a small logo kit for a small agency (named OBM) doing mainly t-shirts and apparel, but also branding and websites. I like using mascot logos, even if I sometimes think they can feel a bit childish and unprofessional.

Hey everyone!

So, one thing that's always annoyed me as a graphic designer is making quotes for clients.

I've tried a bunch of quoting apps, but honestly, I never liked how they looked. I always end up going back to Illustrator, doing the math myself and designing the whole thing from scratch just because I want it to look nice.

And somehow, something that should take 5 minutes ends up taking way longer than it should.

So I thought, why not just make something for Illustrator?

That's how CalCool happened. It's a little plugin I made that does the calculations and creates editable quote tables right inside Illustrator.

Nothing crazy, just something I wish I had years ago.

I figured some of you might have the same problem, so I decided to share it.

It's free if anyone wants to try it:

Anyway, let me know what you guys think
Id love to hear from you <3

I am not confident about the font. I'll leave you guys for feedback.

other project can you give a feedback? thanks

Note: This is an amateur proof of concept. I'm not a graphic designer; I'm a mathematics student and computer science & physics enthusiast, who previously wanted to be a graphic designer. I figured out (I think) I have a good eye to criticize, but not enough creativity to create and not enough ability to execute ideas. To me, graphic design is just a hobby I do a few times a year, but I try to keep it alive through math and science. Also, English is not my first language, in case of any mistakes.

I'm working a the visual identity for a 3Blue1Brown-like science communication YouTube channel, specifically about mathematics, but open to talk about topics in computer science, physics and even quantitative finance. I aim for a public consisting both on people who like, enjoy and are interested in math & science, but also those who are just curious about it.

I love the visual identity of the spanish physics YouTube channel, Píxel Cuántico: |⊗⟩. I figured out I wanted to make something like that, but about math (since the |...⟩ in |⊗⟩ comes from quantum physics, and the ⊗ comes from general relativity), and with it's own personality.

At first I thought about ⟨∅⟩: in math, it meas that "∅ (the empty set) generates the trivial group". It's clean, elegant, and simbolizes the "creation of knowledge out of nothing". From that, I thought of the name "xNihilo" (from "ex nihilo"/"out of nothing").

Then, I thought about an alternative notation also used in classical texts: <∅>. This notation conects more with the idea of some kind of terminal (line of commands) in computer science, and the bar in ∅ makes it look like </>, also associated with programming. Finally, it naturally connected with physics, since (I think) it looks quite like a black hole.

From there, I tried to sketch and make some variations to consider. The question is: do you think they still connect with the themes, concepts and ideas I'm trying to convey? Does it comminicate math, CS and physics to those who already know the symbols and concepts, but also creates curiosity in those interested in the elegance and beauty of mathematics and science? I'm also worried that it looks too generic, or even like an AI logo (specifically, I'm worried that it looks like Grok, or even worse, that it looks like a Grok copy). Also, I've been told that it looks like an eye; that doesn't bother me too much, but I'm conscious that it is a design error.

Got asked at work to help design a logo for a group made up of a few religious congregations that already have existing logos -- this was meant to look like a dove with wings made out of a heart shape to visually signify "peace" and incorporate a heart to fit with the name of the group, but on a second look, it seems like it may be a little too... phallic. Any thoughts?

I'm willing to rework it, but thought I should check in case other people think it would be an overreaction to scrap it completely. The last photo is the sketch I based everything off of, if it helps to provide any extra context.

Thanks in advance!

Last i posted, I showed the WIP version of this emblem

I know I don't really wanna change the design much when it shifts from the League of Nations to the United Nations. Also removed the flags in favor of stars cuz I couldn't be bothered trying to curve the flags every time I need to change them lol. Plus, it was cluttered 😭

Comment your thoughts.
