Bad logo design and its destructiveness
I know that we have tended to go on a bit about how constructing your own logo without any experience or artistic flair can be a serious sin. However the following logos will really highlight how destructive it can be to a business if you brand your product or company with an unprofessional logo. It’s so important that we don’t underestimate how influential branding and identity can be.
For instance if you saw this image outside a restaurant, would you be tempted to eat at it? Does this logo totally assure you that you are not going to get food poisoning from this establishment?
I think I’d be tempted to keep walking…..
Now when it comes to having a hair cut females particularly, but males too, want to feel that they are in trusted hands when they let someone loose with scissors on their beloved barnet. Therefore the next logo almost makes my sides split…what on earth were they thinking?! Why would you ever want to portray this sort of image for a hair salon. A graphic designer would never make this sort of fatal error, but it does cause amusement for passers by I suppose.
If these two disastrous images are not enough to convince you that a good logo is crucial when thinking about your company’s branding or identity then you will probably remain unconvinced. They are funny, i’ll give them that, but that’s about all the credit they are worthy of.
