minimalism is a design approach that
focuses on simplicity and utilizes
negative space in a big way less is
always more with the minimal logo design
style the technique is found across
creative mediums such as interior design
product design and of course graphic
design the minimalist style may seem
effortless but don't be fooled into
believing that's empty and boring
while minimalist methodology promotes a
less-is-more approach the strategic use
of restraints can produce serious impact
nowhere is this more true and valid and
when designing a logo or brand utilizing
the minimal style of design minimalism
is regarded as a timeless style and
regardless of what trends come and go
within graphic design a simple logo will
almost certainly work and stand the test
of time
that's why Nike has maintained the same
swoosh mark for decades a solid
professional minimal logo design is a
design that you can recognize in an
instant and which is going to remain in
your memory thereafter
so when designing a minimal logo style
the first thing you must consider is
color or rather the lack of color the
key to a minimal logo design is black
and white a good minimal logo starts
with only these colors and then you can
move forward with different color
elements but if the local isn't work
without color it probably won't work for
a minimal style logo design the next tip
I have for you when designing a minimal
logo is that typographic logos with a
slight twist to work very well so if
you're struggling a little try a brand
name or whatever load your project
you're working on in a typographic style
put your very own spin on the lettering
to create a logo type with a unique
Flair my third tip for designing a
minimal logo is to remember that
geometric shapes are highly recognizable
and minimal if done correctly Bend time
gets into grips with your brief and try
working in geometric elements that fit
into the branding in a minimal style my
last tip for designing and minimal logo
is to be aware of negative space you can
create some very interesting and cool
designs that utilize negative space and
this fits right into the style of
minimalism and a minimal logo design
I'm going to quickly show you two of my
past designs I fall into the minimal
style of logo designing I haven't had
many clients who go for the minimal
style so I don't have many real-life
client projects to show you this one is
way back from 2011 and this design here
was back in 2014 if I recall correctly
and it was for a fashion brand they're
still going strong to this day so what
