What Is Logo Design?
Broadly speaking, there are three distinct kinds of logo: image-based, text-based and combination. So before you even embark on your logo design journey, you need to understand their differences and think about which would resonate most with your brand and your audience.
Image-based logos feature a symbol and might be abstract (Pepsi, Microsoft) or literal (Shell, Apple). Text-based logos feature a company name (Google), a monogram (HP) or an initial (McDonald’s). Not surprisingly, a combination logo incorporates both a symbol and text into their design (Lacoste, Firefox)
3D Gradients

Proof that it’s actually better to fade away, designers are adding depth and dimension to logos through the use of 3D gradients. Whether that means taking in the whole rainbow, transitioning between two colors or simply fading to black (or white). This fully editable alphabet by Sentavio twists and folds over itself like a ribbon, while pastel color progressions add to the dynamic look and feel.
Creative lettering

Choosing the right font is crucial when it comes to communicating a personal brand or business identity, that’s why our Envato experts keep a keen eye on the latest logo lettering trends. Minimalism is a movement we’ve seen gaining momentum in recent years, with brands going out their way to avoid decorative flourishes and unnecessary details. These stripped-back letters do just that, making it the ideal choice for a modern, social-first company or individual.

Say so much (with so little) thanks to a punchy image-based logo that prioritizes shapes and symbols over words and letters. With just a few simple circles that merge and mingle, this abstract Technology Logo screams science, medicine and engineering, without actually representing anything specific.
monogram logos

Once the domain of dodgy bathrobes, many of today’s big brands have opted for the monogram approach. Think YSL, GE, H&M… even tennis pro Roger Federer has gotten in on the initials-only act. This logo trend lets the letters do the talking, while offering plenty of scope for creative combinations and overlapping elements. Like this logo template by ilhamtaro, which brings a high-end serif style to the trend.
Geometric Logos

Learn from those who have harnessed the eye-catching appeal of some of our favorite mathematical shapes – from HSBC’s triangles to the trefoil-inspired Adidas leaves – and try them out for yourself with the recurring hexagons featured in this honeycomb logo template. It’s perfect for generating, er, buzz.
Hand Drawn Logos

Featuring 18 logo designs, the delicate blooms and berries included in this wildflower image and text template are fully customisable, while 13 watercolor elements add an extra touch of whimsy.
