Ever since man learned to draw we\u2019ve been communicating through pictures. Some of the earliest languages are pictographic. Symbols representing ideas and things.<\/p>\n

Today, the language of advertising is the image. When you watch a television commercial, are you expecting a rhetorical speech?<\/p>\n

No.<\/p>\n

Why not? Because images connect to a very powerful part of our brains: the emotional part.<\/p>\n

So, what is the simplest form of advertisement? The logo.<\/p>\n

Logos are essentially brand encapsulation.<\/p>\n

Think of the most iconic brands<\/a> in the history of advertising. You could probably tell us more about each brand just by thinking of their logo than you could about your own grandmother.<\/p>\n

Designing a logo for electronics should be no different than designing a logo for any other brand. And today we\u2019re going to tell you exactly how to do that.<\/p>\n

1. Freshness Counts When It Comes to Your Logo for Electronics<\/h2>\n

If you look back over the years, major companies keep updating their logos<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Of course, the main aspects of each logo stay the same. Apple Macintosh went from a rainbow colored apple to a simple apple silhouette when they became merely Apple.<\/p>\n

But design trends change over time. And unless your electronics company makes tablets<\/a> that look like they were built in some fictional version of 1920, you should stick to current design trends for your logo.<\/p>\n

2. Timelessness Should Also Be on Your Mind<\/h2>\n

It\u2019s extremely hard to judge timelessness. A lot of art gets labeled as a \u201ctimeless classic\u201d long before it\u2019s had a chance to prove the claim true.<\/p>\n

But there are a few ways to design a logo for electronics that is more likely to be relevant in ten years.<\/p>\n

The key to balancing freshness and timelessness is to use design elements that haven\u2019t disappeared in the last few years.<\/p>\n

Couple those with design elements that really did stand the test of time and you\u2019ll have a winning logo.<\/p>\n

Of course, you will probably have to tweak your logo over time to keep it fresh as certain elements go out of style. But the basic structure should be timeless.<\/p>\n

3. Making Your Logo Memorable Is the Key to Winning<\/h2>\n

It\u2019s easy to go overboard.<\/p>\n

You decide you want to symbolize everything your business is about and end up with a beautifully complicated design.<\/p>\n

Great! Print it and put it on your wall. But don\u2019t put that on your product.<\/p>\n

Making a splash and being memorable are two very different things. You could create a beautifully intricate logo and have everyone forget what it looked like as soon as they\u00a0roll their eyes elsewhere.<\/p>\n

Too many symbols in a logo will kill your logo, so, make it simple<\/a> and easy to recall.<\/p>\n

How do you do this? Ask yourself what is the central mission of your business. Now think of an object or letter or even style that describes this mission.<\/p>\n

When designing a logo for electronics, you want your logo to fit one simple message.<\/p>\n

Conclusion: Just Do It<\/h2>\n

Just start drawing it. Even if your first logo draft is too much, you can identify a symbol or a design within your first draft and pair everything else down.<\/p>\n
