Totally agree, Nirooz! The black background really gives it that exclusive, high-end vibe and makes the 3D metallic gold pop so much more.
Do you think the white version could still work better for clean print materials like business cards or stationery, or would you stick to black for everything?
Spot on! That’s exactly what I was thinking. Using white for stationery and print, while keeping black for digital & web branding creates a great balance.
Are you currently working on any branding or UI/UX projects yourself? Would love to check out your work
Appreciate the insight! I totally agree, the black background really pushes that luxury vibe.
Glad to help out! Always ready to support and collaborate.
Black for me too. the gold reads richer with more contrast, and that crown mark actually reads as a crown instead of getting lost in the lighter background. white version feels more like a spa brand than a luxury studio.
Thanks for the great feedback, MD Rafee! You nailed it — the high contrast against black really pops the gold details and holds that premium, luxury studio aesthetic. That spa comparison is a great callout!
Black gives it more depth and a stronger luxury feel.
100% agree with you, Kabir! The dark background really creates that contrast, making the gold pops and giving it a high-end luxury feel. Thanks for sharing your thought
Black is more preferable but here White is brighten.
Thanks for sharing your perspective, Alamgir! You're spot on—the white background really makes the overall composition brighter
Black makes it more visible and rich
Totally agree! The black background adds that high-end contrast to the logo. Thanks for dropping your thoughts — which element caught your attention first, the typography or the mark?
