Take a look at this list to get inspired and create your own design.
You can use this as a symbol for your island, use it to decorate your flag, and more. This is also great for clans and Animal Crossing content creators.
Font logos
Typography lets you directly communicate with your audience. A text logo puts your brand or island name in the forefront, minimizing distractions. It’s a simple type of design that allows you to communicate a lot.
You can easily add meaning to your design by knowing the difference between serif and sans serif fonts. Serif fonts are glyphs with a “tail” element at the end of each stroke to give each letter an emphasis. These are often used by traditionalist or vintage brands.
On the other hand, you can opt for sans serif fonts. These are glyphs without the tail element for each letter. This is a popular choice for modern and more playful brands.
Don’t worry about creating a design that looks too plain. You can use a combination of fonts to make a high-contrast logo. Try getting a logo that matches your island’s design theme. Popular ones include zen gardens, arcade, maze, city, camp, and more.

Pro tip: Utilize shapes
Figures like triangles, circles, squares and more aren’t just for decoration. You can use this to help frame your design and make it pop. This is extremely helpful for text logos that could use a little more design elements to help them stand out.
Giving your logo a strong silhouette will make it easier for you to apply it to marketing assets like brochures without being outshined in the design.
Leaf logos
One of the well-known symbols of Animal Crossing is the bitten leaf icon. Gamers say that this is a nod to mythical stories about tanuki or Japanese raccoon dogs who garner powers from magic leaves. This is a reference to Tom Nook, who runs the real estate company in the game.
You can create a design of the same theme with a stunning leaf logo. It can hold different meanings for your island, too, as leaves can communicate life, nature, and beginnings.
This type of design can go well with islands that have gardening, maze, and other nature-related themes.
Are you looking for a way to make your emblem more creative? You can experiment with art styles like minimalism, modern, vintage, and other concepts for your leaf design.
