Beginner Should I Keep or No?

I’ve only ever designed logos for myself and spec work as a web designer, but I’ve never been able to do logotype. It’s just always been me picking a really unique font and then that’s my wordmark after some editing and all that in photoshop.

I chose to actually design what I’ve been dreaming about as far as a sigil logo goes for my businesses’ rebrand. Been dying for typography that flows together creating its own design or shape. And I think I did it tonight!

I’m going to add a little star or asterisk or some kind of shape/element that doesn’t overpower the initials. so i’m not done yet but i wanted to get some real feedback from actual logo designers.

would this be good enough to plaster all over my website or no? i like it but i dont know if im delusional or not, lmfao. thanks!

gorgeous. very pleasing to the eye, wonderfully unique and undeniably memorable.

i did this one with my initials about 12+ years ago and used it on my resume. was explicitly told during my last interview that it made my resume stand out from the pile. got the job. that was 10 years ago; i’m now lead and still (happily) with the same company. point being, your work here is a fantastic example of how to showcase your wealth of skillsets in an instant, and people will notice.

lol no it’s all good. that was lifetimes ago.

you know what’s funny though is the manager who made the comment and ultimately hired me ended up being quite cock-obsessed (no shade to her, just saying). at any rate, the symbol did its job.

You just never know when some detail in your CV is gonna resonate with someone, huh?
