Ever wondered what’s the face of your brand ! How people get the first idea of your services or products. It has to be the logo of your company (and a pizza logo if you run a pizza company) that communicates with plausible buyers and link them with your brand. In fact your logo holds major importance for business communication and effective brand selling. Having said that, let me get straight to the point that the company logo should be given special care. You should always consult a professional design studio to work on your brand identity. So that it serves the purpose of attracting more customers.
Let’s take an in-depth look at design process of the Pedaling Pizza logo.
Mission (im-possible) : To design an attractive and appropriate logo for mobile catering company, The Pedaling Pizza
What Tools Were Used: Adobe Illustrator, Adobe Photoshop
Steps taken to make a good pizza logo:
In order to make an excellent logo design for Pedaling Pizza, FullStop360 team locked horns with creativity and got down to the project. The client wanted an image of fire or a wooden oven or something that would closely relate to pizza making e.g. a wooden pizza peel.
After extensive research and brainstorming, designers came up with the initial concepts for a pizza logo.
First Draft
These two early design options were conceptualized by putting the brand name in bold on the pizza peel. It not only had the easy to read font, but also showed a flame and a circle in shape of a Trike wheel. It was pretty much what the client had asked for. Nonetheless, the work needed to be done to transform this initial draft into something more stylized and cool. In the meanwhile, another design concept surfaced. Let’s take a look at it and see what it had to offer.
Now this was another take on Pedaling Pizza logo. The design was made using two wheels carrying a Pizza slice, while the name of the brand appeared in a sort of curvy form. It was a good presentation of a ‘Pizza on the Go’, that was in accordance with the business type i.e. mobile catering.
To give more options to choose from, FullStop presented another concept of pizza logo to the client.
This one had the imagery of pizza oven with a flame underneath and brand name inscribed in different font styles. The round shape of pizza oven also made a connection with the trike wheel. The color palette for pizza peel was black.
Client’s feedback
As we shared the initial concepts, the client had his say that paved a way for revision of the designs. The response was great and small tweaks highlighted by the client helped us further improve the design.
The client necessitated more emphasis on his business slogan “Handcrafted artisans Pizza” and wanted it written prominently. Furthermore, he wanted a bicycle or trike in the picture to give clear impression of his business.
The interactive session with the client lend us a hand to read and understand the client’s mind.
Revision 1
We re-processed the designs and modified the company slogan with more funky and clear font.
This revision of the initial concept resulted in the trike wheel and a pizza oven in the same place, and a flame in the center. It was a clever way to communicate the right message to the customers. The flame in the center made it more appropriate and the sharp text font was ready to read.
The client settled for the logo design with pizza oven trike wheel. And that’s how the design process of pizza logo entered the final phase.
Revision 2
In the second revision, we tried to improve the overall imagery by
- Giving a fiercer look to the flame under the pizza oven
- Adjusting the trike wheel according to the round shape of oven
- Modifying the wheel spikes to improve the style
- Doing more work on the color of bricks
- Using a typeface from the Universal Next Family, “Universal Next Arabic by Nadine Chahine & Adrian Frutiger”.
