My post title is a simple question but I would like to elaborate it further to help you find a reasonable answer. People who have been in this design industry for so long are not sure on “what makes a successful logo designer…a design degree or creative skills?”

Lately, surveys have proved Graphic Design to be one of the most demanding and famous career choices. Number of students graduate from design schools every year but only few of them turn out to be successful designers. They all get their design degrees but why only some of them leave their marks in the industry?  

It is all because design lessons and degrees can "sharpen" one’s skills to a certain level of perfection but it is the inner gifted spark which helps a designer go long way. However, in this advanced computer age anyone with a latest version of Adobe Creative Suite and a Mac book pro, can claim to be a logo designer but only few come up with great designs.

Short and sweet, a design degree and few design software on your laptop, are not enough to make you a successful logo designer. Design Degree and Design tools can help you learn the mechanics, concepts, and theories of designing but they can’t add magic to your logo designs.

Please don’t assume that I claim design degrees to be useless and accredit raw talent to be the secret of a successful logo designer. After all, there is no way to skip the eternal trend of hiring logo designers or logo design companies on basis of their design degrees and design certificates. It’s a bitter truth that many talented designers fail to get jobs in established design firms because they haven’t been to a reputable design school.

Who takes the award – Design Degree, Design Tools or Talent?
Many people believe that one should work hard and gets a degree to do wonders in a field while others are too confident about their creativity skills. Many also rely on the additional exposure and services provided by the internet advancement.

Anyhow, I have openly shared my perspective with you all but still cannot decide which characteristic makes a successful logo designer….Design Degrees, Design Tools or Talent?

Now your go

Logo awareness is on a rise and getting a professional logo design is not a complicated procedure anymore. However, coming up with unusual logo designs which could rise among the crowd is not so easy. We all emphasize on having unique logo designs, which are memorable and hard to ignore.

With the present logo design awareness I think there is no need to explain the term ‘Negative Space’. To me, interpreting the negative space within a logo design is no child’s play and I deeply respect the designers who succeed coming up with such clever logo designs.

However, one never gets tired of admiring the beauty of negative space logos which skillfully portray a lot of things at the same time. Initially, we found this concept within few logos which are ranked among world’s best logo designs for their uniqueness…FedEx Logo, ED Logo and Yoga Australia Logo. But now, negative space logos have become the most positive aspect of logo design world.

So, for now, let’s just stop praising such logos and treat our eyes with some clever examples.
