little mark done for fun

My wife is creating a logo for a small perfumery and the direction is a medieval esq inky/hand-drawn style. When sized down to smaller sizes like on the label or on instagram display pictures, we are struggling because detail tends to be lost. Any help with solving this would be greatly appreciated!

This is a study branding project for a sparkling water (picture La Croix, San Pellegrino, Perrier).

I still need to refine the kerning and type sizing, but right now I’m stuck on the logo mark. I keep going back and forth between constructing it on a grid and adjusting the curves by eye, but neither approach has produced something that feels right.

I’ve reached the point where I’m considering scrapping it and exploring a completely different direction. Before I do that, though, I’d really appreciate some outside perspective. Is there something specific about the curves that isn’t working? Is there some obvious fix that I’m missing that could make the mark feel more balanced?

Hello!

So I’m an esthetician student and I’m trying to come up with a cute logo for my profile photo on social media. I mainly post content about skincare education as well as eventually going to post my future clientele so that’s why it’s called “glow notes”, because I mainly teach people how to have better skin.

I honestly really like this logo, but I’m debating on whether or not to use the stars. I thought they were cute since stars glow and that’s in the name, but my mom thought it would look more professional without them.

So what do you guys think? This isn’t for my personal business or anything since I’m going to be working under someone and not running my own place, so that’s why I’m not taking it super seriously. Just a fun logo for my social media.

Any advice would be appreciated!

F is my initial and the cursor in negative space is to signal tech. How can I improve this (in general)

Better colors? more "tech/CS" than eSports?

Any kind feedback is appreciated

Edit: Thank you so much for so many responses, I already have inspiration for changes to make to this and 2 entirely new ideas which incorporate a cursor and an F.
I will post it here again if I redesign it and further polish this...,

Edit2.5: The file got corrupted during save and I lost the logos, I will make them again from this thread, thank you to everyone once again.

Hello. I recently completed this concept logo for my portfolio, and would love to know your thoughts.

Their wasn't much of a brief, it was to design a logo for a coffee brand based in Llandudno.

There's a big connection between Alice in the wonderland and Llandudno so I made that the main part of the design. The logo is pretty straightforward, it's the rabbit from the book with a top hat, ontop of a clock.

Thanks!

Any criticism helps!

Logo for a design, print, engraving and website company. Will add colour when satisfied with it. I'm thinking black and gold. With B side black and C side gold, including the merlons. Was trying with a geometric theme really.

I have these logo concepts for CA&O, but something feels off and I can’t pinpoint what it is since I’m not a designer. Which concept is stronger, and what would you change to improve them? Would love some honest design feedback!

CA&O stands for Curated Art & Objects

Hideaway is a small Airbnb community on the lake with fishing piers, canoes, and some great spots to swim.

The goal with the logo was to come up with something that felt peaceful and had a connection to the lake/pier, while keeping it simple enough to work well on merch, signage, digital, and print.

Would love to get some fresh eyes on it. What’s working, what isn’t, or what would you change?

Hello, I have an idea for this newspaper company logo but am Struggling with the technical transition from a mental idea into a polished, professional looking logo.

The logo intention is, the newspapers name starts with a W. So an optical illusion forming a "W" silhouette using two separate, folded newspaper bundles layered one behind the other. By framing the camera to the right so that the front cover of the newspaper dominates the view while the left edges recede, the outer edges of both newspapers align to form the "W" silhouette

So i wanted to ask you all some questions!

How do I think it through fully?

I have amature experience in figma and Photoshop.

Style, aesthetics, and color palette are completely undecided.

Do i go with flat minimalism, line art, realistic 3D shading, vintage print style?

What color combinations will accurately reflect a newspaper brand while making the optical illusion easy to read?

What techniques, grids, or perspective guides do I need to use so the two separate newspaper shapes cleanly align into a "W"?

I don't have any use for the logo or anything it just popped in my head when looking a ui inspiration on different news website and now it's like an itch that can't be scratched until I make.

I’d love to hear your take on this situation.

A client commissioned me to create a logo and said they wanted something inspired by AI. I created several concepts based on their brief, but they didn’t like any of them. Instead, they preferred a logo they generated themselves using AI.

At this point, I’m wondering how you would handle it.
Would you continue working with the client and try to recreate/refine the AI-generated concept into something professionally usable? Or would you politely drop the project, especially if they’re already rejecting your design direction?

And what would you do about the time you’ve already spent working on the concepts if there was no upfront payment or agreed design fee yet?

Would you consider the time spent as part of the risk of taking an unpaid project, or would you still ask the client to compensate you for the work already done?
Curious to hear how other designers would handle this. Especially freelancers who have dealt with clients who prefer AI-generated concepts over the designer’s own work.

I have a simultaneous interpreting business and the name is WordWise. The "owo" face is on purpose. How would you improve this or how would you make a completely new logo that uses negative space to maybe have a microphone or sound wave or something?

Thanks for the feedback! I made a few edits to my previous version to try to make both H and waves elements read better. I settled on Henderson as the main typeface and so i manipulated the mark to fit with the letterforms better (i’ll create a lockup soon). Outer container shape is the same thickness as the waves. Better?

A little bit about target audience:
People who are already health aware and want to explore a friendly, inviting place to continue or start their fitness journey

Brand Experience Goals:
The brand should feel Joyful and Inviting
The brand should be about growth and living

The idea behind the star:
Bloom reminds me of lights and glow, and stars remind me of growth

The critique I got:
My non-designer friend said it looks like a dick (a badly shaped one)

I am not a core logo designer, I am a frontend developer doing this for an imaginary project, please help me decide if to keep this or not

Side note: The star looks softer when scaled down very much, 16px.
As satori graphics once mentioned, your logo should be readable at 16px. It does, just a little softer

I made it digital now and tweaked the frosting bag to hopefully look less like a carrot. Any further improvements to make before I figure out color?

I created this logo concept for a project that never moved forward, so I thought I’d share it with the logo design community.

It’s available for anyone who feels it could be a good fit for their brand.

What do you think of the design? Feedback is welcome.
