Posted on March 28, 2011 by Tope
There are diverse schools of thought as regards logo design. While some believe that a logo should be modest and unadorned, some are of the opinion that for a logo to make much sense, it must be made up of intricate convolutions. On the other hand, notions are principally determined by temperament and experience, and really views about logos are not exceptions.
For that reason, in the heat of this debate concerning how logos should look like, actually nobody wins because everyone has the right to independent perceptions! If all the logos of the several outfits, organizations and states are as simple as the Nike or the IBM logo, or highly convoluted like the firefox or the great seal of the United States, then variety which is the spice of life will be missing.
It is therefore critical at this junction for all to thread the path of creativity. As a matter of fact, creativity is the source of the charm that logos radiate. It appears that it is the “mind” behind a logo that actually counts and not just enthralling designs.
Hence, simple or complex, a logo must convey the very “heart” of what it stands for. That is its essence.

Since the establishment of the great entertainment empire popularly known as Walt Disney Company by Walt Elias Disney (1901-1966), many people have not recovered from the influence of one of the greatest Cartoon Artists and animation film producers that ever lived. As a matter of fact, British cartoonist, David Low (1891-1963) referred to Walt Disney as one of the most significant figures in graphic arts since Leonardo.
On the other hand, one would think that a genius of visual art such as Walt Disney would have gone ahead to craft a logo that will take centuries to unravel. But this is not true as regards the Disney Logo. Just with a simple inscription of the word “Disney’’, the great corporation has continued to stun millions of people across the globe in spite of the demise of the founder in the year 1966.
Today, families all around the world appear incomplete without a product from Disney Company. Do you remember the world acclaimed Mickey Mouse, Snow white and the seven dwarfs, Beauty and the beast, The little mermaid and Aladdin? Wow! All these from the stable of Disney have become all-time classics in the world of animated motion pictures. Children cannot but say big “thank you” to Disney for always meeting their day!
