Logo ideas usually come from a practical source such as a business plan, taking inspiration from the target audience and tangible attributes from the product or service being branded. Sometimes the original thought is a sketch by the client or their “artistic” 7-year-old family member. However, the best visual branding designs pull from many unseen [...]

New Orleans Logos – The Bulldog
November 24, 2010 – 9:59 am
Graphically speaking, many designers would argue this is not the best logo, but as a patron of the pub this is probably the best logo for the task at hand. When I think of an image for a pub called “The Bulldog”, this is what comes to mind. The sign is a vintage wooden sign [...]
New Orleans Logos – New Orleans Saints
October 29, 2010 – 10:31 am
With football season in full force and all of the buzz around this weekend’s prime time Halloween game between our beloved New Orleans Saints versus the Pittsburgh Steelers along with the hulabaloo about ownership of “Who Dat”, we thought it was only fitting that we talked about the Saints fleur-de-leis logo. The Saints logo the [...]

September 16, 2010 – 8:14 am
We’re continuing our New Orleans logo posts where we talk about logos around town. This post will discuss our thoughts on NOLA.com’s logo and we ask for your input in the comments section below.

When you think of New Orleans, you probably think of the culture, music, Mardi Gras, and definitely the food. One of the New Orleans area’s finest seafood restaurants is Drago’s.

New Orleans Logos – Water Meter
August 10, 2010 – 9:51 am
As the 5th anniversary of Hurricane Katrina approaches, we have been talking about all of the pro-New Orleans imagery that has flooded New Orleans’ stores and homes. New Orleans has had the fleur-de-leis for centuries as part of its early French roots. Another image also represents New Orleans and it’s the water meter cover. Since [...]
New Orleans Logos – Premium Parking
October 13, 2009 – 8:57 am
I know we promised not to spotlight our clients in the New Orleans Logos section of our website, but this is not a design client for us. We actually just recoded & cleaned up Premium Parking’s website and helped them with some web marketing so we think the logo still counts. Premium Parking’s logo reminds [...]
New Orleans Logos – Hubig’s Pies
September 18, 2009 – 11:38 am
Not many things bring me back to my youth in New Orleans as a Hubig’s pie. It is a simple pleasure that one has to indulge on a few times a year. Regardless of your favorite flavor (mine is banana), a Hubig’s pie is a timeless treat and a part of New Orleans’ culture. You [...]
New Orleans Logos – Tiptina’s
September 11, 2009 – 10:29 am
This is another legendary household name in New Orleans – Tiptina’s. Many locals just call it “Tips”. Tiptina’s is an Uptown New Orleans concert hall and music haven. I’m not sure where the banana comes from and the importance of it. A friend thinks the banana is a sign of luck or happiness. Regardless the [...]

NOLA Brewing is another New Orleans logo that tells a lot about the company and the product by the look of the logo. Beer enthusiasts will recognize the wheat in the background and the general public will also see the regal, high-end look of the logo. NOLA Brewing is not a cheap beer and the [...]
