Modern Logos

Modern logos are sleek, streamlined, and simplistic. Some entities take a more modern approach to their logo design like tech companies, digital device manufacturers, and code writers, just a few examples of mass markets that require modern logos. BrandCrowd has free access to thousands of modern logo templates for you to choose from and customize, so the potential is limitless. Your logo should contain easy to understand globally recognizable symbols that are relatable to your target audience. Other design elements used when creating a modern logo are gradient colors, minimalism, experimentation with typography, and using as few words as possible. Flat logos also have a contemporary twist, which uses just that, one flat color. Advertising history shows minimalistic logos are powerful marketing tools because of their easy recognition.

When buying a design through BrandCrowd, the ownership passes from the designer to you but does not copyright your creation. You can read the BrandCrowd Designer/Client Contract here. When you buy your logo, there are three licenses for an additional fee, Standard, Buy-out, and Exclusive. Standard gives you non-exclusive rights to your design. Buy-out deletes the design from the store so that it won't get selected by anyone else. Lastly, Exclusive removes the logo from the store and gives you all intellectual rights to your creation. No matter where it appears, no one can replicate your logo. However, BrandCrowd does not Trademark your design. Trademarks, governed and protected by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, offers an online application service.

In the advertising world, modern fonts envoke feelings of intelligence, style, and exclusivity with a contemporary flair. This typography resonates best when vying for the millennial age group due to its close relationship to tech logos for Facebook, Google, other popular apps, and platforms. The modern font style is simple, minimal, and slightly futuristic. Other famous brands that incorporate the font psychology of modern typography into their logo are Jeep, Spotify, and American Airlines. This contemporary style font collection includes but is not limited to Helvetica, Proxima Nova, Roboto, Open Sans, Komoda, and Modeka. You can create modern logos that rival the professional look of big brands with access to thousands of customizable templates with BrandCrowd.

Yes. BrandCrowd allows you to add a slogan, catchphrase, or tag line type text to any logo. The use of a catchphrase, in conjunction with a modern logo, creates a more recognizable mark for representing your technology company. Famous slogans in use are Verizon's "Can You Hear Me Now?" and Apple's "Think Different." Keep in mind your slogan should contain no more than seven words, include keywords associated with your type of business, and be simplistic. Text logos are great for slogan purposes because you can update the font as often as you require to maintain a modern look as different target age group's preferred aesthetics change with time.
