There are several ways to create your own logo. If you don't fancy using an AI tool that spits out 'unique' logos and you're not great with graphic design software, it can seem impossible but fear not I'm here to tell you how you can do it in a simple cost-effective way!
Now bear with me the next line might be a bit scary if you've never considered yourself an artist... The easiest route to making a luxury logo that's completely unique is to start with pen and paper (don't stop reading just yet). Digitising simple black and white drawings is super quick and easy for any designer who knows their way around Adobe Illustrator. This is a great way to get a premium-looking logo that no one else has! Only you know exactly what's in your head so get it onto paper as best you can and work with a designer to straighten it up and add the finishing touches.
There are a few rules to this!
Take a look at the image above, on the left you can see the raw hand drawings and on the right, you can see the unedited digitised versions. If you keep referring to this, you’ll better understand the guidelines below. 1. No 'sketchy' lines. Adobe Illustrator uses a function called 'Image Trace' to quickly convert images to vectors, (read more about vectors here). This method works best with bold, clean lines.2. This isn't designed for complex drawings. The Image Trace function isn't made for anything super-detailed, the idea is to get snappy results from simple concepts. For anything more complicated you'll need a graphic designers help from the start. 3. You must have some vision! Seeing past what you're able to draw and what your logo could be is vital.
