A logo is an identifying symbol used to advertise a specific brand. It is hard to think of a successful company that does not have a recognizable and memorable logo. If we look to major brands like Nike, Target, Twitter, and even Instagram, we know without being told what company each of those logos symbolize.<\/p>\n

While not every client you design for will have a vast cultural impact as the well-known companies, your client will still want that feeling of exclusivity. They will want a logo they can be proud of that represents their brand and brand mission.<\/p>\n

Designing a logo can, therefore, be a daunting and challenging process. Instagram is a perfect platform for you to see the impactful work by your design peers. We\u2019ve highlighted ten design accounts that have caught our eye in 2019, each showcasing a unique sense of style.<\/p>\n
