Don’t let anyone tell you that open source software can’t produce professional results! That should do it for this year’s edition of professional logos designed with Inkscape. The client ended up not using this design, so it’s available if you’re interested. I ended up creating a simple letter A with a superhero mask overlaying it to represent the arm of the A. The goal for this design was to depict something industrial and vintage with a super hero-like theme. The client ended up selecting a different design, so this one is available for sale if interested. The goal for this logo was to depict something relating to both farming and science, so I went with a microscope that has a chicken sitting in some grass within the negative space. I’ve always been a big fan of using negative space within logos, and there was a perfect opportunity for it here. This is one of my favorite professional logos designed with Inkscape because of its use of negative space. I made the typography and colors have a fun, playful style suitable for gaming. My approach was to depict G and D as gears to represent creating something. They have a pretty big YouTube channel as well (some of you may be subscribers yourselves!) Last year I had the honor of redesigning their logo. GDQuest is an educational platform for learning about game design with Open Source software.

I’ve actually gotten a lot of clients wanting me to create logos for them using their photographs ever since I made a tutorial about doing so with GIMP last year. This client wanted me to use a picture of his dog as inspiration for his logo, which is exactly what I did. Logos can sometimes start off as a photograph. I added this one to my portfolio as well.

I paired it with Michroma - a really nice technological-style font. The sentiment this client wanted me to communicate with his logo is “the voice that leads you back home,” so I designed an icon that depicts a simple house with sound waves coming from it. The name is a play on “assistance” and “stem”, which means voice in Dutch. It’s a single button that when pressed it connects you with a relative or loved one. This is a simple panda holding a beehive. The name is pretty straightforward in suggesting what should be depicted in the logo - a panda and a beehive, so that’s what I designed.

This design was meant for a SAAS business. The client ended up not using this design, so it’s available for sale if interested. I created an emblem-style design with a text banner going over it and the Philadelphia skyline in the background. This logo was for a local client who wanted something Philadelphia-related.

I had to look at a lot of examples of design from this era to really know how to approach this one. In the end I went with an iconic mark that combines the K and 5 and extends into a surrounding emblem to make it look unique and distinguished. The client wanted it to look like something you would see before an old television show. The goal for this logo was to create a retro look, but not just any retro look. I was so happy with how this design came out that I featured it on my portfolio. For the fonts I used a pairing of Acre and Dynalight - one of my favorite duos that I listed in an article about logo font pairings I wrote last year. My approach for this logo was to place a subtle thumbtack (for “sticking”) within the negative space of the letter S and use that as an icon. The overarching theme of this writing service is that they specialize in writing content for the web that prevents users from bouncing (or leaving the site without clicking on anything else,) so they essentially “stick” around. Sticky Site Content is a writing service.
