I’m working on a logo design for my own business (go figure right?) and I’m in a
graphic design related field (I work at a photo studio right now) and I majored in communication design. I’m starting a small company at farmers markets and the like and I make handmade soaps and bath bombs and fragrances and stuff. In my business plan (kind of like my creative brief) my niche is tropical and hawaiian type, beachy, fun, youthful scents and aesthetic. I’m a huge fan of David Carson, so I wanted to take some inspiration from him into my work, but I want my logo to reflect sort of a carefree, fun, tropical, surf, beach vibe, but I need help with my logo. Do you think it’s appropriate to have a beachy fun vibe to a logo that specializes in tropical scents and soaps? The soaps are all different colors, but most are bright and fun and neon in color.
I can design for a lot of other people, but I’m obviously having one heck of a time designing my own. Help please?
How can I show you guys a picture?

What’s Your Opinion On This Logo Design?
Posted on August 17, 2011.
Wow that’s really fun! As a fellow graphic designer, my advice is to first, pick a name for your first brand of soaps- you want to establish your soap’s identity that when people read it, they will know automatically that it is yours! And making the name your soap’s logo.
You can always alter the colors of the logo brand name depending on the packaging surface like if the soap is sky blue or apple green, you have to make the logo pop out- and since your theme is tropical/beach fun- it will be great to emphasize that.
If you want, you can email me a picture of your idea through dymomarket@yahoo.com and I’ll send you an idea of what I would do if I am to design it.
Its appropriate. To show a photo you get a photobucket account, then upload the picture then post the link.
A tropical logo makes me think of relaxation and enjoyment and both those things go with soap.
If it is not the CBS logo, then don’t bother. The CBS logo can’t be topped!
