This is my final design for my logo! This was an exciting assignment because I got to design something that expresses who I am. This was a little harder than I though it would be because I had to define my personal style. This was challenging because I do not believe I have one particular style but many. I love all styles-I guess you could say I am eclectic. Therefore I incorporated a couple different styles into my logo design. I chose cursive for my initials because I thought it conveyed traditional which is a big part of who I am. I wanted that to really stand out and be the focal point. For the word "DESIGNS" I chose more of an asian style with the simple, straight lines. The leaf was incorporated into my design for many reasons. It represents new beginnings and is reflected in the sustainable, chemical free design that I am interested in. I originally designed my logo in black and white and was happy with it but I was encouraged to play around with color. Color is very important to me so it made a lot of sense to incorporate this element into my design. In the end I chose green for the leaf (very literal I know) and pink because it is my favorite color.
Looking back on this assignment I think I achieved what I wanted to. I designed a logo I am very happy with. Some may say it is too simple but I prefer simple. It expresses who I am. It's simple yet elegant.
In my opinion, the "B" and "M" part of of the typography is too far off. Why don't you try to put them close? Create an illusion that they're done in one stroke. Also the lower "Designs" looks blurry. It may look good on the web, but when applied to business cards, it'll look smudged and illegible. Other than that, it looks cool!
