Logos

One of the first thing I did with a computer is drawing. When I learned about advanced tools, I started making logos for my own use for fun. I do not consider myself an artist, quite the contrary, but I like my ideas and what I have done with them. What follows are my attempts to do logos for different reasons, from personal personal projects and experiments to concretize ideas of others.

I never wanted to use a downloaded image as a profile picture, nor show myself, that’s how I started creating my own logos, initially with Photoshop, then Illustrator, and in the future probably with Inkscape. It lead to this first creation, in which I mostly added letters from my former pseudo, and some background colors to make it nicer and different when it is displayed as a circle or a square.

Letters T N T in blue and light gray on a dark gray background — My first ever logo, when I had a different pseudo

When I decided to get rid of my former pseudo, I just went with my initials TB. In this first version, I decided to have something simple, with more light, but I kept the same color palette. Actually, it is the same color palette for the next one as well. In addition, I did not want to have a flat background, so I added a small paper texture.

The next iteration of my logo was a complete experiment, I wanted to only outline specific places of the letters so they are readable but not in their usual form. I came with the idea of these sticks, however I feel like there is something missing but couldn’t find how to improve it.

In this third version, I went with a thicker design with each letter color to outline the other. Some inclination is added to prevent a too boring design.

This next logo is actually designed by friends, I just did the digital version to be used on a website. This was for a school project called BuzzWall69, which also had a Swiss equivalent called BuzzWall24.

Finally, I always liked low poly creations, so I tried to do mine with my face. The result is definitely not amazing but it inspired me to do another one in the future.
