How to Create a Logo and Visual Identity

Published 2026-04-30 · 1 min read

A logo is the first thing people associate with your company. But a good logo does not stand alone — it is part of a wider visual identity that keeps the brand consistent everywhere. Let us look at how it all comes together.

Types of logos

  • Wordmark — the name in a stylised typeface.
  • Symbol / icon — a graphic mark with no text.
  • Combination — text and symbol together.
  • Monogram — the brand's initials.

The logo design process

A quality logo does not happen by accident. The process usually includes a brief and analysis, competitor research, sketching concepts, choosing a direction, refining and preparing final formats for print and web.

What a visual identity includes

  • The logo and its variants.
  • A colour palette.
  • Typography (fonts).
  • Image style and iconography.
  • Usage rules (a brand guide).

DIY or an agency

Online generators and templates handle the basics cheaply, but the result often blends in with competitors and lacks strategy. An agency delivers an original identity built on positioning — an investment that pays back in trust and recognition.

What it costs

Price varies with scope: from a simple logo to a complete identity with a guide. Always weigh how many years the brand will serve you — spread over years, it is one of the cheapest investments in a company.
