Pixel-it<\/b><\/h3>\n

The rise of eight-bit videogames in this high-tech age is an obvious trend, aside from it being ironic. The technique is basically making use of simple pixel square to create logos. It doesn\u2019t only make your logo look fun, but tech-savvy, too. Edesigners<\/em> pulled it off in his use of subtle edge pixilation in this logo for Milwaukee. The Etail logo by Mbezz<\/em> looks awesome, as well.

\u201cHere\u201d Symbol<\/b><\/h3>\n

You know it, when you see it. If your logo incorporates that famous gps blip icon, you\u2019re going places, pun intended. It\u2019s one of the most recognizable images today, since mobile map was introduced. If your industry deals with travel and transportation, it\u2019s a must-use.

Badge, Baby, Badge<\/b><\/h3>\n

If you\u2019re going for that vintage and classic look, that prototypical look-at-me-I\u2019m-a-logo logo, simply make use of badges. Badges are basic, and they always look cool and trendy. Especially today\u2019s hipster crowded world, badges always work. This logo of Laddie Lake by Wongdeso<\/em> says it all.<\/p>\n

Hand-drawn-ish<\/b><\/h3>\n

Hand drawn logos are a mess. They are scribbly, cursive, and look very personalized. That\u2019s why they are awesome if you are going for that made-by-an-actual-person-not-a-machine kind of motif for your design or business. This design principle is perfect for that restaurant and other personal services business. Here are a couple of examples done by day2daydesigns<\/em> and veron<\/em>.

Nature Works!<\/b><\/h3>\n

If aesthetic beauty is difficult to achieve in your designs, you need not look any further because nature works. The use of horizon, sky, trees, waterfalls and other natural elements not only amplify your design\u2019s colors, but give that familiar feel to it, as well, since everyone loves nature. But of course, this style has to work with your industry. Check out redroll<\/em> and nafisaparween\u2019s<\/em> wicked use of nature in their designs!<\/p>\n

Brackets and Waves<\/b><\/h3>\n

Bracketing, or basically closing in two ends of a logo to form and design, is widely used to achieve balance. Coupling it with the use of waves, achieves balance and soft elegance. Technology and food based businesses are likely to make use of this style. Zack<\/em> impeccably made use of this style to achieve the 2 at once logo.
