Logo Design: Let the Type Do the Talking

Kurt, what will the personal identity be used for? I guess what I'm asking is, what is your profession or industry that you are involved with? It might help people viewing this project to have a little bit more backstory to go with. Maybe you did this already and I'm just missed it :) Looks like you have tons of ideas! Personally, I'm a fan of the last page of pencil sketches - 2nd from the top, on the left and bottom left are my favourites. Looking forward to seeing where this leads.

Thanks for the comment. I would be using this project for my resume and business cards as a freelance graphic designer/ student looking for a job.Like Evan mentioned, I'm going in a more modern and clean direction rather than the retro feel of the other sketches. I like the studio Wolff Olins and the vector idea has the same sort of feel as the London 2012 logo.

Hey Kurt, you know I like the direction your sketches were going in. The updated file you added feels like it's in a different direction. It's definitely fine to change directions, but just make sure you are doing it for the right reasons. Are you wanting a cleaner more modern approach? Thanks for sharing your update tho.

Yeah, I think my style is more modern and clean. I like to try out experimental and nontraditional approaches. I've been digging Uwe Loesch's designs recently.

Cool. I think you can continue to develop this and have it read a bit easier than it does. As always thanks for sharing your updates.

I'm really drawn to the 2 marks at the bottom right of the 1st page. They both fit into their shapes in a really nice way. The monograms are nice too, but it seems like the C has more hierarchy than the M, when it seems like it should be the other way.

I love the KM on the top left side of the last page, the one to it's right with the KMC is great too!

I really like the top left of that middle page. Something fun and unique about it.

I was just playing around in Illustrator.
