Panda Plus Logo



For my design I wanted to keep it simple and clean. The logos that I remember the best are simple and mostly one or two colors. Simple cartoon animal logos like Hello Kitty, WWF, or Puma were my inspiration. The design was a plain with just the black and white so I added the green bamboo to give it an earthy feeling. I think it is fun and welcoming. It would also downsize easily for a logo on clothes.

Natty Boh Logo Critique

This is the National Bohemian Beer Logo. They are on their drink products and apparel. I like the design because of the simplicity. Although it can be confused with the pringle logo. I like the logo because it is cute and playful. I also like the use of just one color. Black feels strong against the white background. It is also funny with its mustache and haircut. He has a very old fashion and classic feeling. It is definitely intended for adults who drink.

Under Armour Logo Critique

This is the Under Armour Logo. They make sports and performance apparel. The Logo is simple clean design. This logo is intended for any athlete of any sport. It is definitely more intended for adults. The shape is simple yet sophisticated with its mirrored image. Most of their logos are only one color. The black feels strong against a white background. The logo gives me the impression it is only for serious athletes.The font feels strong with the use of capitals letters. I like the spacing of the text and the boldness of the font.

Converse Logo Critique

This is the Converse All Star Logo. I think they only make shoes. The logo is simple and old fashion. It feels friendly and welcoming to me. Anyone can wear their products. The stitching in the logo, cursive and plain font give the logo and retro look. This logo is intended for anyone, all ages. The colors red, white, and blue give the logo a patriotic feel. This logo also feels classic or timeless.

Hello Kitty Logo Critique

This is the Hello Kitty Logo. They sell almost anything with their logo on it. This logo is fun, cute, and playful. it is a cute cartoon cat with a bow. I think it is intended for little girls, but almost all age women love it. I like the simple logo almost as if a kid has drawn it. The red or sometimes pink bow gives it a hint of color. I think its simplicity gives it it's effectiveness.

Puma Logo Critique

This logo is for Puma. They sell activewear and shoes ect. The logo makes me feel active and fun. It has a Puma making an athletic jump over the name. It comes in many different colors but in this particular logo its green which reminds me of health or natural things. Pumas of course are athletic powerful animals which increases the power of the name. Its designed for men and women not particularly for kids. I like the font and the strength of the capital letters.
