Hi all, this is Take 2 on relaunching the monthly logo contest on the sub. Take 1 was unsuccessful because a real company was chosen for the rebrand, and it wasn't received well. So, I took one of the (imaginary company) ideas proposed in the preliminary discussion by u/sunshine-and-sorrow, which sounded pretty cool. I think 2 weeks should be optimal, but please feel free to discuss the overall contest structure in the comments. It's worth mentioning that this is a practice exercise and is being organized at the request of the community members.
Company Name: Celestial Courier
Overview: Celestial Courier is a pioneering logistics company specializing in the transportation of goods, raw materials, tools, and supplies across space. It offers reliable and efficient parcel delivery services between Earth and distant planets, moons, and asteroids, supporting space exploration, colonization, and research efforts.
Objectives: The logo should communicate the following:
Reliability: Trustworthy and efficient service over vast distances.
Exploration: Connecting distant celestial bodies with a sense of adventure and expansion.
Target Audience:
Space agencies, research institutions, and private space exploration companies.
Businesses involved in space industries like mining, colonization, and interplanetary trade.
Visual Style:
Minimalistic & Memorable: Simple yet striking, scalable across different mediums.

Overall Feel: The logo should evoke excitement, innovation, and the vast possibilities of space, positioning Celestial Courier as a reliable leader in the future of interplanetary logistics.
It seems, when presented with a “logos then and now” type graphic, this sub will universaly lament the loss of individualism, fun, colour etc over the decades.
Simultaneously, when someone presents something they’re working on, almost all responses read “too much going on, lose the colour, make sure it works for every single edge case, a black square would be better”…
How do we explain this?
Reminds me of boomer mentality on childcare: demanding kids be wrapped in cotton then, in the next breath, complaining that playgrounds aren’t dangerous enough anymore.
Hey guys! My name is Amichai, and my wife and I are building what we believe will be the next figma. We're desperately looking for as much feedback from designers as possible so if you're a professional (or hobbiest) designer, your feedback is crucial to us. This is the website and the best forum to join the journey is via our discord server but you can reach out via email or just reply here as well.
Thanks! I really hope this doesn't fall under self-promotion. If yes, sorry in advance.
Are you a creative professional in the fields of graphic design, visual identity, branding and/or marketing?
I would like your objective expert opinion on which NHL team has the "best" logo, based not on historical, emotional, geographic ties, rooting interests, or other such subjective reasons, but rather a visual analysis based purely on aesthetic elements, like colors, shapes, letters, harmony, etc.
I'm a fan of the Toronto Maple Leafs and I like their current logo, but I've never loved writing the whole team name out on the logo (also looking at you, New York Rangers). I personally like logos that can stand on their own by showing me rather than telling me. So many fans will cite the Montreal Canadiens' logo but so much of that is based on their storied legacy of championships. Original Six teams get a lotta love by virtue of their long history, but are they objectively the best?
I made this logo for a lady and after converting it to a pdf, it comes up like this. I've tried resizing, I've tried changing the actual line to a different graphic, I've tried everything!! Is there anything I can do to fix this???
Hi u/sambhrant09, hopefully this is helpful as you mentioned being a beginner. I mostly wanted to illustrate:
correcting overshoots for the uma
standardize the baseline of Coffee as you already have a few remarkable ideas and dropped capitals
triaged/prioritize the “L” shape so that you get more of a dominant, heavier L arm instead of a “I” with a serif connected to a C. the spacing you had was appropriate. i also extended the bottom left negative space between the L and C more into the C, so that this shape was even more clear.
tightening up the ee and ff, and taking a natural opportunity to make an ff ligature
i tried to stick to these broader changes versus more local corrections
My website (and brand) name is Nikolai's Photos. The design philosophy behind this logo conveys simplicity (my dominant photography style) and tries to incorporate the N and P from the name into a logo that also looks like a camera on a short tripod. Let me know what you think!
The project was designing a healthy candy bar brand to get people to eat healthier snacks! I really like apples and apple pies so i went with that lols
I ended up making an entire font myself cuz I couldn’t find one i liked :,3
This logo represents a consulting firm that assists logistics companies in adopting innovative technology solutions to enhance efficiency and drive growth
Celestial Courier: a space delivery company seeking a reliable, explorative, simple, and futuristic logo for space agencies and related businesses. (the brief we had)
For the logo mark, I created a simplified spacecraft form, using negative space to create a box shape and line, symbolizing space transport. This design aims for efficiency and reliable delivery, maintaining a clean and memorable aesthetic. The geometric font complements the mark, and I've included horizontal and vertical layouts for versatility. Based on feedback from u/Electroma, I've refined the engine shapes for a more streamlined spacecraft look.
