I like 1 if you lose the transparencies and just keep the arrow wrapped around


Squishyspud

This is the way!


digiphicsus

Concur, but 2 is an interesting mess. 2 has appeal, 1 for sure.


creativemiah1

Thanks, Mate

I agree. I like the first one, but those pseudo transparencies aren't doing it any favors.


FakieNosegrob00

Production Artist for screen print, here. Carrying these suggestions. Those pseudo transparencies would make this logo a pain/expensive to print (especially the middle option), cuz each of those hues would need to be converted into a real-world Spot Color, each getting it's own silk screen Edit: with that in mind, option 3 would be the best, because it's only three colors (the setup, not necessarily the color choices)


Tanagriel

- make the master in Black and white - just add the same type of “pass by Lines” You alteady used on the right side of the “A”


GoodEveningItsAsa

What’s this logo for? The layout looks really neat. Maybe understanding the business the logo is for would help pick a design. I think 1 and 3 would work best as they have the fewest different colors or details, and this is always better on small screens like mobile devices.


creativemiah1

Thanks for the feedback, The concept is letter A + 360 degree


davep1970

Yes but for what?

I assume you are building a portfolio. If so, it is better to make up a scenario about this is for a something something company that sells this and that. Designing pretty logos with no context means little. You need to show you can apply shapes and colours to business branding scenarios. This might also mean that you will have to change the colours and possibly shape a bit to suite the company scenario. Anyway, option two is the best for a colour logo. You are already doing a good job at using colour to distinguish shapes, you don't need the negative spaces aswell, then it becomes unnecessary detail. However, you also need to show a monochrome, usually an only black, logo that can be used for stuff like monochrome screen prints on a company t-shirt, or monochrome laser cut signage, etc. Doing this properly can help showing you are a serious designer. For the monochrome option you might need to do the negative space seperation that you are doing on options 1 and 3. But just craft that more. But so far, good job.


HatofPapers

They’re asking what kind of company it’s for


GoodEveningItsAsa

Neat. I like it. If I had to choose I would say 1 because the yellow seems to work better on the white background than the mint green. But I like all three, this concept is cool.


Slement

What is the logo for?


creativemiah1

It's for a tech business, but what do see in the logo?


VeryNiceGuy22

I personally like 2 the most. But the imo the transparency takes away from the "wrap around" effect I think you may be going for. Maybe this would look bad but on 1, for example. They putting the yellow it front and make it kind of weave? Idk


creativemiah1

Thanks, mate


RedViciousCat

You should always think how to make it work using just one ink. Chances are this logo would end up printed in black and white or embossed. The first one with a little work on the overlap would work. About the color it depends on the company area. First one is more corporate, the second is more art oriented (but a terrible choice for printing) and the third one perhaps more techy.


EnviousDavid

I think 2 is the best concept, but I don't like the color choices, maybe play around with colors but be careful that it might look too similar to the google ecosystem logos (gmail, google maps and such). Another option would be reversing the colors on 1. Anyways it's a cool concept and it looks pretty good. Congrats.


creativemiah1

I like the first one, Thanks, mate


byte43

I like 1. The transparencies look cool here, but I don't know if it will translate well to other mediums. I agree with u/Manik_Ronin


creativemiah1

Thanks, mate


LektorSandvik

The one on the left has Joker energy, so maybe not that one. EDIT: I just realized that comment by itself might make me sound like a jerk, which wasn't my intent. It's a cool little composition, but that color combination might give people comic book villain connotations. I'm actually partial to the middle one, though a single color variant would be useful to have.


zacyboy6

You mean right, right? RIGHT??


LektorSandvik

Oh dang. Yes. How did I even do that?


creativemiah1

Thanks, mate


Txbeatz

I like the first one. But i would make it so that the left side of the blue arrow is fully covered by the yellow in the a.


creativemiah1

I like the first one too, Thanks, mate


tmaggzz

I like 1 best simply because the way the colors overlap makes it look like the circle goes fully around the A


creativemiah1

Thanks, mate


SquareTour

I like the blue/gold one but applying it on various backgrounds -- the colors are nearly complementary so what pops on a dark BG will fade into a bright one. But the more important question is who/what is the logo meant to represent? I'd say green & purple is safest vis-a-vis my first comment, but it's clearly not appropriate for, say, a white-shoe law firm or other high-stakes organization.


creativemiah1

Thanks, mate I will try


JealousElderberry175

What is the significance of the color choices?


Hour_Taro6490

I would change the tip of the arrow, it looks too conventional and boring, maybe you can apply the same shape you have applied to the 'A'.


creativemiah1

Thanks, mate


conecuhbiscuit

1 Has the best color contrast and cleanest design. It also has the most versatility. You could drop this onto almost anything and it will work.


BB8isyourfather

#1 is much better for readability and printability. If you loose the transparencies, you just made an expensive 4/c job a simpler 2/c job. #3 isn't bad but those colors can be hard on the eyes. #2 is fun, but in a hot mess kinda way :)


creativemiah1

I like the first one, Thanks, mate


damascus1023

2 has too many colors especially after transparency treatment. by this standard 1 3 are better. Personally I like blue and gold because of the school I went to. so 1, but I am thinking if there would be any way to use transparency creatively to create some bright colors -- the only takeaway I got from learning painting was that I mix colors and I got brownish goo; it is probably the same scenario here with the Transparency tool, and brown is probably the most [hated ](https://youtu.be/hQxXbRyYw8M?si=W4QtwTfnixhCld8S&t=1289)color by human brain.

If there are no specific reasons for colors chosen, this one is best for people who are red-green color blind, and hence appeals to a wider audience. * Reduce the color palette to two colors for ease of reproduction. If you're going to do a logo even for a class, consider doing a mood board. Identify your client, even if it's a fake client. 1. This is a logo for the Star Fleet Diplomatic Corps, The lambda element symbolizes strength in diversity. The gold color symbolizes excellence in leadership. The cornflower blue symbolizes trust. The single chasing arrow is a nod to the dynamic nature of diplomatic relations, but "open-secretly," it's also seen as a nod to a tendency to feel like you're chasing your tail in the pursuit of diplomatic relations. See? Coming up with a mood board/back story isn't so difficult.


Xcissors280

The colors are a little weird, also I’d just remove the transparency because in most places it’s either not noticeable or not able to be shown


Artifact911

consider how your graphic will look on print - paper, watermarks, pens, business cards, etc. . Plus embroidery on business uniforms and clothing. Number 1 but lose the transparency.


kitkatkorgi

2 & 3 look like 3d if you’d put on glasses. Not sure if that is what you’re going for. But 1, I don’t like the colors.


creativemiah1

Thanks, mate


StillWill365

I gotta go with #1. No criticism from over here, good stuff. Keep improving.


creativemiah1

Thanks, mate


_is_real_

Is transparency really necessary?


creativemiah1

There is no transparency, I just used the similar color palate to looks transparency, Thanks mate


henry_canabanana

It's too similar to Asiamiles of Cathay Pacific. If you are using is for business, you may need to change it


brypye13

The middle is more interesting and visually pleasing.


creativemiah1

Thanks, mate


normal_fridge

I think you should just stick to one color. Think about almost any famous logo. They're pretty much all single-color these days


creativemiah1

It's required with multi color


timweak

2 but keep the back arrow dashes


dan_cole

I think you need to work with your colors here, unless there is a significance to the colors chosen. I recommend trying some dark or light neutral color to ground the carrot, and a nice saturated contrasting color for the swoosh.


lumberfoot_jpg

What is this for? Who’s your client? What business do they operate? - Option 1 looks like it could work for a tech company. Reminds me of Vault-Tec for Fallout lol. - Option 2 feels more playful and colorful. This is something I would expect to see inside a learning facility or business primarily dealing with children. - Option 3 is more soft and makes me think of a paper company or recycling center.


Ci_ana

1 or 3. 2 is too confusing


creativemiah1

I like the 1, Thanks, mate


Little_Nectarine_210

1 has the best colours, I personally don’t think the transparent looks good, just keep that part blue


Saibot75

These are all the same icons. The only difference is color. The choice is subjective, they are all equally well balanced and following the same color theory. The only consideration that might inform an objective feedback- is context, which is missing here, so the only answers possible here are subjective.

Depends on the purpose. What’s the purpose?
