Problem & Solution

Create a logo for UXday conference.
Goals/Requirements:
create a distinctive logo
follow already existing guidelines for GrUSP conference logos
create a colour palette (max 2 colours) for maximum accessibility (focus on color contrast etc.)
create a logo highly usable in merchandising (t-shirts & more)

Process

I think that every communication project should have a strong foundation if it aims to be effective, stand for something and stand out.
Here are the steps that led me to design the final logo.
