What Makes A Good Illustrative Logo?

Any decent logo in the world of illustration has 4 essential components:

Color Palette

Illustrative logos are much more elaborate and harder to design as compared to logos for other industries. This includes choosing the right color palette to accompany the design of the logo. The decision regarding which colors you should choose for your logo is highly dependent on the type of brand, the market segment, and the target audience you have in mind. Muted tones and hues work best but a splash of color can also be used to bring the logo to life. Deep reds, somber blues and greys are often used in illustrative logos due to their professional look and feel.

Symbol

Symbols can be the defining factor of your logo. This element of your logo really allows you to flex your creative muscles and personalize your logo to be unique and memorable while showing off what you have to offer to your customers. Illustrative logos are made up of complex design elements, usually illustrations of some element related to what the company does. Commonly used symbols include a mascot or character that is used to represent the company and, in some cases, the company name itself can also be used. The symbols you use should be in line with the industry sector the company is in.

Layout

Layout determine the entire structure of a logo. Intricately detailed logos may inspire awe in the audience and while this is a good thing, it is important to not go overboard in order to attract more clients towards your logo and business. Consider where the logo is intended to be used the most. For traditional companies, this can be corporate stationery, collateral marketing materials, shop/building signage and perhaps packaging and merchandise. Minimal layouts work best as they can easily be adapted for use in different mediums and scale well without blowing out of proportion.

Font

Illustrative logos suit brands, businesses and companies of all types. A music company, a construction company, a rock band, a child-related product or club and a fitness company, all are good examples of companies which can benefit from having an illustrative logo. However, these logos should be kept clean and minimal. The use of Serif fonts is recommended due to the smart, sleek and confident lines. Script fonts can also be used as long as the lettering and typeface is legible at most sizes.
