Design Strategy and Choice of typeface:
A logo is supposed to identify a person; my logo represents me. It’s very simple however; it’s very bold and dramatic at the same time. I tried to do double m’s since my name and last name start with that letter, but accidently I created a 3D M that I actually really liked. I added some color so the double m’s can be easily identified, and also because pink gives it life. I think the color I picked gives off sweet, nice, comforting energy, and I think I have those qualities.
Even before creating the logo I knew what font I wanted, and it was Khaki. I like that typeface especially in lowercase because it’s very playful, and very relaxing. I want people to feel comfortable with me, not run away. Since I’m still a student and exploring what I want to do with my life, I wanted my logo to be more in the laid back side, and I think I accomplished that.
Visuals:
I started designing my logo by using the Wacom tablet, however that completely failed. Then I used the pen tool in Illustrator to try to make double, very thin, m’s that would look like a heart but not really at the same time. Playing and playing I came up with the 3D image and I automatically liked it. I think the visual is working perfect for my idea. It encompasses my vision, which was girly but simple. The color just makes it something more attractive than just black and white, which was my original idea.
I really like your logo. I think it's very creative where you're visual can either be a M or a heart. i also like that your logo and name together is very simple and it creates a positive feeling.
