The above Logo was created for a Magazine that focuses on new developments in popular technology especially computer related products and applications.

The logo design for the magazine needed to have a modern style and feature a symbol that would be recognisable to the members of the public whilst also communicating something about the topics that the magazine focused on.

The glass style backdrop which the logo is presented on also helps to communicate the more technological side of the magazines subject matter as this style is commonly seen within website graphics as the buttons and clickable graphic elements that make up the design of many modern style websites seen on the internet today.

Firebubble have created many logos for businesses, products, individuals, events and services but this was the first logo that we have created for a magazine and so it was pleasing to have the opportunity to create a design for something more unusual.

The above Logo Design was created for a modernist gallery which featured works of art inspired by famous artists. The logo itself was inspired by the artist Wassily Kandinsky. The geometrical shapes for which Kandinsky is famous for can be seen within the inspired logo.

It was decided at an early stage in the project that to create a logo inspired by a famous artist would be an excellent idea / theme for the logo as it would then be communicating something meaningful about the gallery and the works of art that would be exhibited there.

The logo itself has been created by hand rather than using design software on a computer. This is unusual as most of the logos created by Firebubble are created using industry standard design software in a vector format. It is the correct and accepted way that logos especially for business are created using vector based software as the vector files we provide our clients with can be resized to any size without lose of quality which makes them perfect for very small items such as business cards as well as very large displays such as corporate signs and banners. It was fine on this rare occasion though to create a hand drawn logo as the logo only needed to be reproduced at one size, so we created the original artwork at the size that the client intended to use the design so as to provide professional results when the logo was reproduced in a printed format.

The above Logo Design created for Trademark Records required a strong recognisable symbol. This was achieved through the use of the bright colour scheme which makes up the symbol part of the logo. The bright blue and pink on the white background provide a high amount of contrast to instantly grab the attention of the intended market which was the general public plus individuals and groups within the music industry.

The symbol part of the logo design also features a brush stroke edge to the design to give the record label identity a more artistic feel rather than a clean edged corporate style design which may not have been so appealing to the intended market. Having the rougher edges to the design also helps to communicate an artistic message which visually adds additional meaning to the design.

The logo was created with the intention of being used as a symbol on its own as well as the full version featuring the strong, bold type filled in black against a white backdrop. It was necessary for the type of the record label name to have the clean outlines so that the name would be easy to read when the logo was reproduced at very small sizes which on occasion such as the back of a CD it will need to be.
