MYSTERIOUS: How to make a text logo - You Need To See This

The logos of Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop are hovering around the text 'How to: Make a Text Logo' on a gradient orange background.

There’s a lot of pressure on a text logo – its impact is reliant on only a few subtle elements of design. As the designer you’ve got an ambitious job; it’s essential to create a punchy logo that conveys the right message with only one or two strategically designed words and flourishes. Your audience judges your brand with only a brief glance, meaning that only the tiniest of adjustments form the overall message.

Photoshop is the industry go-to, and that's what we'll be demonstrating with today, so if you're not familiar, be sure to check out our guide on how to make a logo in Photoshop too (though we wouldn't really recommend PS for logo making!). For beginners searching for cheaper software options, you can take a look at the best free design tools currently on the market.
