The Deep Emotional Meaning Behind My Logo (It Took 30 Seconds)
Welcome to the design breakdown.
When I set out to create the visual identity for Nony, I didnāt just want a logo. I wanted a feeling. I wanted a symbol that captures the duality of man and the sheer, unadulterated chaos of my brain.
You might look at this and say, āNony, that looks like you drew an āNā with your finger on a trackpad while eating chips.ā
To that, I say: You just donāt get Art.
The āDesignā Process
Letās talk about the stroke width. Notice how itās inconsistent? How the top right part is thicker than the bottom left? That is not āshaky hands.ā That is organic minimalism.
I wanted to challenge the rigid structures of modern web design. Vectors are too perfect. SVG paths are too calculated. This logo represents raw, unfiltered humanity. It says: āI have a cracked version of Photoshop, but I was too lazy to open it.ā
The Truth (Because Iām a Lazy B*tch)
Okay, look. The reality is, I would rather rot in bed and doomscroll than spend 4 hours pushing BƩzier curves around in Illustrator.
This isnāt a logo. This is a cry for help.
It is literally just my handwriting. And not even my good handwriting. This is my āI forgot to do the homework and Iām scribbling it 5 minutes before classā handwriting.
I tried to convince myself it was ābrutalism.ā Itās not. Itās just āI-would-rather-stare-at-the-ceiling-ism.ā
The āI Should Be Doing Something Elseā Guilt
My dad says Iām the reason someone needs therapy. My gymnastics coach says I need to work on my landings because I keep wobbling. My swimming instructor says I need to focus on my breathing so I donāt drown.
And what am I doing? I am writing a blog post about a squiggly black line I drew in MS Paint.
I should probably be at the pool. I should probably be practicing my back handsprings so I donāt break my neck. Instead, I am here, romanticizing my own laziness and calling it ābranding.ā
But hey, at least the logo is unique. You canāt download this font on Google Fonts. You can only get it by having zero motivation and a trembling hand from too much caffeine.
