Not everyone is good at identifying ideas, especially creative ones. Well, one thing that we can do is learn from history and have a general thought of what kind of logos are good and what type are bad. As an example, if you read my report, I included a summary of a few of the top logos in history. Nevertheless, this doesn’t really assist you in deciding what to avoid. Let’s quickly go there.
For the most part, you want to avoid logos that are in poor taste especially for a Business Logo Design. Any logo that could easily be seen as offending a group of persons should be avoided at all costs. That means any logo with a sexual connotation should be avoided…especially if it’s a graphic portrayal. Logos that are very complex in design should also be avoided as they won’t render well at small size.

One of the worst logos ever designed was the one for Rising Sun Sushi. I don’t know what the Logo Graphic designer was going for nonetheless it is painfully obvious upon first glance that the logo, intentional or not, represents a rather perverse act. I’ll leave it at that. The Arlington Pediatric Center was looking for the look of a grownup patting a youngster on the head, but the way the logo was rendered, well, it looks like another terrible perverse act. Again, what were these people thinking. Kostelecke Uzeniny (don’t ask me what it means) appears to be a guy eating a sausage link. Well, it looks more like something else and another example of a logo gone bad.

Point is, if you can look at your logo and create a joke for it, then you may be best scrapping it. If you want to hire some guys who will design a killer logo for you, take a look at Logo Design Ideas. The current software for logo design is incredibly comprehensive. It’s also one heck of a learning curve. Sketching something on a piece of paper is one thing. Transforming it into a work of art using Photo-shop or various other software is not as easy as it looks. Years go into perfecting technique. For this reason, few companies actually create their own logos, at least not entirely independently. Problem is, who can you trust for something so important?
