The most challenging aspect of the design was confirming and finalizing my idea. Even though I had a lot of sketches to choose from, none of them met the criteria since they were mostly banners instead of logos. Also, I spent a lot of time trying to figure out which combination of the text and symbol would best represent the club. Since I didn't really pay attention to the font of the text during the drafting process and just went for what was pleasing to the eye, I ended up abandoning all my drafts since none of them really defined the club.
2. How did you overcome this challenge?
To overcome this challenge, I reviewed my summary and thought about the activities of the club. Since cooking club revolves around frying, I thought about incorporating that into my logo. Coincidentally, as I was distorting the letters to decide on the font, I realized that the letters began to resemble fire. I then added a pan on top of the fire to represent frying. Lastly, I added a few mushrooms to make it a bit more complex and creative.
3. What was the most successful aspect of your logo design?
I believe the most successful aspect of my logo design is its creativity and simplicity. I think it is simple yet recognizable since you can immediately tell from the pan what the club is about.
This is purely a visual observation, but your cooking club typeface and your blog type face have a similar style. I like the mushrooms you added to the design, but now I'm thinking why not add carrots or peas? What do you have against other vegetables?
