How to Design a logo – Time Lapse Logo Design (Sketching/Adobe Illustrator)
March 9th, 2010 by
www.mmagic.net – Professional Graphic Design I filmed myself from start to finish, the process of designing a logo and time lapsed the whole thing for your viewing pleasure! 
The Logo: The brief required me to design a logo for “Saniware” a company which specializes in sanitary wares and bathroom toilet fixtures. It was essential for the logo to have a distinct logo mark. This mark must be modern, fresh, uncomplicated, bold, positive, and best of all elegant. It also must express modernism, design, high quality and eco-friendliness. I hope you enjoy! Cheers, Mason Roberts

MMagic, arent logos better if they are simple and therefore memorable and describible? In my opinion this logo doesnt have those characteristics.

probably not an edgy logo, more smooth. and as he did, u used ideas of water droplets to help him, water=natural lol.

Well I pretty much know what one is right for the client, because it will jump out at me from the page! If you have invested enough time and thought into the brief then it will be easy to tell what design is true to the company! Cheers!

aah i see that knoww, but how did you choose the drawing that would define the company’s corporate image? after all that drawing, how do you choose witch one is the most viable one??
im gonna ask allot of questions, because this is what burns me more about design….>_>…i still cant get it right…

Well from the ideation stage you can see I was taking inspiration from water droplets and the many abstract forms they take. Also I based the logo loosely on the form of the letter ’s’.
March 9th, 2010
so what do the shapes, colors and typography mean in the whole logo?, where do you express what??
March 9th, 2010
how do you express eco-friendliness when making a logo?
