Hitting the right tone is vital to hitting the right chord with your audience. If you know your audience and your brand then it should be simple to know what kind of tone you need for your UK logo.
The main 6 tones in UK logo design
Clean, sophisticated, modern
This is a popular choice, characterised by modern lines, and sleek fonts.
Professional, corporate
These UK logos tend to look quite simple. A bold font of the company name, usually without embellishment.
Quirky, fun, informal, friendly
These logos can vary hugely, but a lot of them use characters or creatively make their letters into images.
Luxury
Luxury logos frequently use elegant script fonts, with a dark coloured background and subtle embellishments.
Childrens
UK company logos aimed at children have a very different feel to all other logos. They use bright colours, characters and bold, informal fonts.
Traditional/heritage
Heritage UK logos draw on motifs and elements from the British design past. They can be very simple in monochrome, or draw inspiration from heraldry or Victorian prints.
The right tone
