Logo design is the most difficult skill in graphic design as it requires not only good grip on tools but also sharp and visionary thinking in order to create a brand identity. Logo is not a just a symbol you create but it also represents the brands vision and it should also be able to define future. In my professional life as creative I found it most difficult but most creative skill to have. Its my favourite design skills because it gives me liberty to bring creativity and innovation. Looking forward to your thoughts.
No, Logo design is not difficult. It is very interesting.
Logo design is not a difficult task for sure, you can design a logo in few minutes but it requires certain skills to make a unique and original logo, for me i would recommend 3 steps to create the best logo you can design. first of all like any creative process taking some time to seek inspiration and sketch ideas before anything has been done is very crucial, i rely on pen and paper in this process more than graphic tools. seconed you must consider options, if you think you nailed the perfect logo take some time to change things a bit and have 2 or 3 more alternatives, you never know if it is a good idea or just a seed to a better one unless you use this process. Third don't overwhelm yourself with the brand details just focus primarily in creating an audiance engaging symbol, the simpler the better then use your skills to incorporate it with the business and pitch things to look harmonic.
for me i enjoy the process, i guess the triumphant feeling you get after creating something original is what makes it all worth it in the end. and the paycheck for sure :D
Dont mean to hurt your sentiments brother but I Disagree. 3D Architechtural Designs are much complex. ( AutoCAD) - (3dMAx)...
It is not the hardest part as it os the most important part, logo is a long term object, so you need to be careful designing it, making it unique because you are not going to adjust the logo many times, or a negative impression would strike your company or brand or wahtever the logo represents.
Logo design is just one part of complete corporate design that can contains a lot more elements that are time consuming like printing standards of brochures, promo materials, banners, plus other commercial campaign materials. So the answer would be not quite if you work on whole corporate identity.
logo design is not as much difficult skill,its very creative and interesting skill... in my opinion its only required simple and easy steps first is to research on the topic which you want to make logo and then second step is to make sketches or idea on your sketchbookand third step put your ideas sketches on graphic programme and and your new orginal logo portfolio ready.....
Logo design is not realy difficult. It is very interesting process to create the brand personality.
Thank you everyone for your creative answers.
Yes although my question was quite straight but what i wanted is to have good discussion to get opinion on what my thinking is.
i called it difficult not in terms of skill set of tools we use but what we try to achieve with it.
and yes it some times only few minutes to create logo idea and I totally agree with pencil and sketch process that what i do not only in logo but in every concept creation process.
It needs focused mind and deep sense of creativity I see it as construction of building when you don't focus on base of building while building tower no matter what you do on the material and try to make building eye caching if the base is not enough to carry burden it will collapse sooner of later.
logo has very important role in building brand and its identity if you don't give client creative innovative and the logo that can go on for decades at least if not for life then company will end up changing it again and again.
so skill has very big responsibility attached to it its not just another design that you create but your actually translating the vision and mission of brand in one symbol.
so keeping all these points in ind i said i think its difficult then other design skills.
I thank you all again .
Keep sharing your knowledge on other design topics.
i agree, it need time to make something creative
I totally agree that logo design can be incredibly challenging! It’s not just about making something visually appealing; it has to capture the essence of a brand in a single image. But it doesn’t have to be as difficult as it seems. With tools like use ai to create a logo, agencies can now leverage artificial intelligence to generate logo designs quickly and efficiently. It’s a great way to streamline the process while still creating something professional. Have you tried using AI for logo design yet?
