THUNDER — Logo Design
Brand: Thunder
Industry: Snowboarding fan merchandise
About the brand: Thunder is a fictional brand that creates durable, high-quality merchandise for snowboarding fans, targeting college students.
Design brief: Create an abstract logo mark that conveys a sense of victory, energy, and professionalism. The logo should use yellow as the primary color and work effectively on the brand’s website.
Design direction: A bold lightning-inspired symbol combined with strong, modern typography to represent power, motion, and an energetic brand personality.
Project type: Self-initiated concept project
Tools: Inkscape
this looks great, love the color pairing!
Thank you so much! Glad you liked the colors! 💛
The lightning mark carries a lot of momentum without losing the clean, collegiate feel the brief calls for. I especially like how the yellow stays confident across both the flat mark and the lifestyle mockup.
Thank you so much! I’m glad the energy and clean feel came through. Really appreciate your feedback! 💛

Most AI dev tools brand themselves like the future arrived yesterday. Neon, robots, "10x" everywhere. Engineering buyers read that as hype.
ORGN is a unified environment for secure, AI-driven software development. The brief: look like the thing serious teams build on.
We started with the name. ORGN is Origin, the point on an axis that coordinates come from. That became the whole system. A bracketed origin mark, geometry that extends from it in every direction, one controlled band of spectrum on black, and nothing else.
"Build on any axis" is the positioning, the visual logic and the product promise in five words. That's what happens when strategy comes before the logo.

Starting from the name and building the whole visual system out of "origin" is a good discipline check. Too many dev tool brands just default to neon gradients because that's what the category looks like right now.

Great template!
Why does every courier brand hide the people actually doing the work behind a stock photo?
I built Dockhand around the opposite idea — the riders ARE the brand. Hand-inked, zero gradient, named on the roster, now live on a working site.

One idea brand. No decoration allowed.
riders named on the roster, good call
