What does a logo designer do?

Most logo designers handle some or all of this. Pick the parts you need and we'll put them in your brief.

  • Discovery and research

    Asks about your business, customers and competitors so the logo starts from the right direction.

  • Logo concepts

    Sketches and presents a few distinct logo ideas for you to compare and give feedback on.

  • Refinement and revisions

    Develops your chosen concept through agreed rounds of changes until it feels right.

  • Logo refreshes

    Updates an existing logo so it looks current, while keeping what customers already recognise.

  • Logo variations

    Creates stacked, horizontal and icon versions so the mark fits websites, social profiles and signage.

  • Colour and typography

    Chooses colours and fonts that suit the mark and work on screen and in print.

  • Brand guidelines

    Writes a short guide to using the logo, colours and fonts, so everyone applies them the same way.

  • Print and digital files

    Supplies vector, PNG, SVG and PDF files in full colour and black and white, ready for web and print.

  • Rollout support

    Applies the new mark to business cards, signage, vehicles, social profiles and templates.

Questions about hiring a logo designer

Straight answers to what NZ business owners ask us most.

What should I include in a logo design brief?

Say what the business does, who it is for, what must stay, and where the mark has to work first. Write one brief and compare applicants.

Do I need logo design, graphic design, or web design?

This page is for the mark and identity files. Campaign graphics and everyday collateral sit with graphic design. The website itself sits with web design. If you are putting a new mark on a new build, website development can sit alongside. Say that in the brief if you want one person.
