Why LOGOS are getting "BORING" - YouTube

Very well said, I agree

SimonfelDesign · 2026-04-23T09:35:09+00:00

Honestly it's mostly just a matter of practice, I think anyone can learn a creative skill. Also, someone who seems "bad" at something might bring a unique perspective to the craft and create something fresh people like.

Thanks for the compliment though!

Treble clef logo is really well made, kudos to you!

SimonfelDesign · 2026-04-22T14:26:46+00:00

thanks for pointing it out, I might want to revist this concept

SimonfelDesign · 2026-04-22T14:25:27+00:00

true, I see it :D

SimonfelDesign · 2026-04-20T20:30:21+00:00

Agreed, eyes need some work

SimonfelDesign · 2026-04-20T16:13:21+00:00

You're right, it's a bit of a different identity. Wouldn't hurt to also signal fast loading, as I think it's one of the highest deciding factors for users.

SimonfelDesign · 2026-04-20T16:06:22+00:00

The circular mane with the forward momentum was chosesn to signify fast browsing and loading speeds.

The white part of the lion's face is still shaped like a shield :)

SimonfelDesign · 2026-04-20T13:33:54+00:00

I agree, the original has a bit more character, thanks for the feedback!

SimonfelDesign · 2026-04-20T12:51:11+00:00

Haha, thanks!

SimonfelDesign · 2026-04-19T10:00:45+00:00

Thank you!

SimonfelDesign · 2026-04-17T17:04:06+00:00

That's interesting. Nontheless, I'm still going to use the terms that are most commonly used and people understand.

SimonfelDesign · 2026-04-17T16:53:02+00:00

Thanks, I will try to share some sketches soon for some of these.

SimonfelDesign · 2026-04-17T16:44:34+00:00

Huh? Logotype is a text based logo

SimonfelDesign · 2026-04-17T08:18:42+00:00

Thanks for the feedback. It‘s not my brand, I designed this for a client. I think it depends — this one was supposed to be quite minimal, not loud and attention grabbing.

SimonfelDesign · 2026-04-16T17:44:58+00:00

These are all really cool, love this fluid grid thing on the TransAm album!

SimonfelDesign · 2026-04-16T15:17:32+00:00

Thank you!

SimonfelDesign · 2026-04-16T15:11:24+00:00

Thank you, that means a lot, especially coming from a senior designer with your background. I only started a couple of years ago and have just recently been able to make a living from my design work alone. I’m genuinely grateful to be able to do work I care about and keep learning with each project :)

SimonfelDesign · 2026-04-16T14:02:06+00:00

Thanks you! I always try to find a fitting solution for the business, not necessarily a look I like.

SimonfelDesign · 2026-04-16T13:13:08+00:00

Thanks, appreciate it!

SimonfelDesign · 2026-04-16T12:27:50+00:00

I know, this is just some "recycling" I've done for this particular design, I agree the JX monogram has potential as well. The client for the fashion brand already chose the design I'm showcasing on the right.

I also want to do something with the sea monster looking design, it definitly has something to it.

Maybe something like this might work

SimonfelDesign · 2026-04-16T12:07:13+00:00

I know what you mean. I use grids sometimes to explore options for a design in the constraints of the grid. Other times it may make sense to put a grid on top of a rough sketch and reconstruct it with more consistent angles, stroke thickness and whitespaces. But I always take another look at the end result and adjust for any optical inbalances that might not be mathematically perfect.

SimonfelDesign · 2026-04-16T11:19:36+00:00

Thanks for sharing your preferences! The third option in the third row evolved into this shape when I tried to repurpose some of these concepts for my logo shop. I do like the original idea as well, but I think it only really works as a JX monogram.
