Logo designUpdated

A logo that works,
from favicon to billboard.

Logo design is the first piece of a brand: the mark people see on your app, website, deck and sign. I design a primary logo, a wordmark and a symbol, test them at small and large sizes, and hand over the files for web and print. It suits an early launch that needs a strong mark before a full identity.

Questions founders ask

How much does logo design cost?

It depends on the scope: what the logo needs to cover, for how many markets and languages. After a free 30-minute call you get a fixed written proposal, so the price never changes mid-project.

How long does logo design take?

Usually 2 to 4 weeks, with weekly check-ins and two revision rounds per phase.

What’s the difference between a logo and a brand identity?

A logo is one mark. A brand identity is the whole system around it: strategy, color, typography, imagery, voice and guidelines, so everything looks like the same company. Many startups begin with a logo and grow into a full identity later.

Which files will I get?

Vector files (SVG and PDF) that scale to any size, PNG files for everyday use, versions in color and in black and white, and a sheet with your colors and typefaces. You own all of them.

Can you design a logo in Arabic and English?

Yes. For the UAE and Saudi Arabia I design Arabic and English versions of the logo so they work as one brand.

Will my logo be trademarked?

Registration is filed by your lawyer: with the USPTO in the US, the Ministry of Economy and Tourism in the UAE or SAIP in Saudi Arabia. I hand over clean final files for the application.
