LOGO 1- Beautifly

This is one of my final ideas for a Logo Design. Using the butterfly image i have Incorporated font i found suitable to the logo. I have based this logo on a hair and beauty salon which is called 'Beautifly'. I have used a retro 60's font which i find works well. I have done 3 different Logo ideas using the same image. I have given the 3rd design a different look using a different type and colour.


This is my 1st design. I have only included font and the image that i had produced through Photoshop. I think this design is very simple and cute, but doesn't really state what the Logo is for or resembles. With a bit more detail and time i think this Logo Idea with develop really well and will eventually work.




This is my 2nd design. I have again included font and the image i had designed earlier but added a Client as and ideas for who/what the logo may represent. I have done this for a 'hair and beauty salon'. This worked well as it has a 50's beauty shop look and suited the matter well. I really think this Logo has potential but still needs a little bit more work to it.


This is the 3rd design. I have done a totally different font and colour scheme. I have used a font called ' The Maples Origins' along beside pink and green colours. I have used these colours due to using them during my recent study of typography and the colour scheme was from the flower image i used at the beginning. I find that they worked well with the image and i would definitely consider using them again.

Experimenting For A Logo.



Here i have used an image i have taken whilst out at Longdendale Trail and created a clipping mask using an image i had found on the internet. Due to the image having some parts already cut it left blank spaces that didn't fill. I still found this a very good out come and. Also the image i used had a good color pallet for the tree








For this idea i have done the exact same as the image above but used a different technique and images. The image inside the linear drawing is also one i have taken but from the local park near my house. I placed the image of the linear flower and then erased around the shapes leaving the background inside the shape.

















Here I have copied the technique from the above image but used a different outline image. This image doesn't really suit the background image as the linear drawing is of Tulips and not Daisy's. I still like this image and also in some places there is bits of detail from the linear drawing that did not get replaced with the background image.
Here i have done the same to the first image but using a different image and outline i also edited the image of the butterfly to make the detail of the wings stand out. I have used an image i have taken whilst at Styal which was of Red and Black Moths sitting on white flowers. I found that the colours and contrast worked well and also that the butterfly works well due to the moths. I like this and i think this would work well for a logo.

Experimenting for a Logo Design

Here ive used my own image as a background and placed an image from the internet on top of the photograph. Not only would this image make a great monoprint it would also make a great logo design with a few modifications. With a good composition i think this would make an excellent Logo.

Here i have used a photograph that i had taken and then placed an outline of an image i have chosen from the internet and placed it on top of the photograph. I have also used the magic wand tool to take any of the white bold colour from the background of the image to make it stand out and look like a linear drawing on top of a photo. I have used an image of a tulip as i find it a lovely image and think it would work well but would work better on top of a photograph of tulips.


Here i have again taken the same photograph and placed an image of a daisy outline on top and used the magic wand tool to again take the white from inside the image. I really like this image and found it an interesting composition as the Daisy outline worked well on top of the photograph of the daisies. I think this would be a good Logo if  i could take the background from around the daisy outline.

Exsisting Logos Featuring Nature.


I have chosen a variety of Logos for various different subject matters to see which works and which does not. I have noticed that there is a main focus on basic shaped and outlined objects found in the natural habitat
                    
I like this Logo as the colour scheme and placement works really well. I also find the butterfly really cute and detailed and i really like the basic outlined and stencil look.I find that the Font works well with the butterfly as its very lose and free. Also i find that the counters in the letter 'B' are over emphasised and can also be interpratated as half of a butterfly its self.

For this Logo i find it really stands out to me as i find the peacock feather is very attractive and it stands out to me. I like the colours chosen and the shade of blue and green used. Even though it has a very limited colour pallet i find it still works really well and has a strong Graphic look to it. The font works well for the target audience as it has that film industry look.

This is very bold and reminds me of a family friendly logo. I like the colours chosen as it suits the subject matter well. The tree at the end has a double meaning as Busch Gardens is a Theme Park and Animal Conservation Center. The loops in the tree resemble the loops of Roller Coasters.

This logo is for the Chelsea Flower Show. I find the colours and detail very interesting and eye catching as it has a summery feel to it due to the colours being very vibrant. It resembles a butterfly which i could relate to in future ideas as i begin to develop Logo Ideas.
