Design a Clever Tech Logo with Inkscape

Logo design is one of the most common tasks for graphic designers, so this will be the first in our chain of projects. In this chapter, we will create a logo for a tech company. We will start with designing the logo. Then, in the following chapters, we will look at icon design and illustrations and banner image design, and then combine all these into a website design. During this project, you will learn about how to use paths, color, and text effectively in Inkscape to create a fresh logo!

In this chapter, we are going to cover these main topics:

  • Using Inkscape for logo design
  • Starting the logo design process with the usual first steps
  • Implementing shape and color in logo design in Inkscape
  • Adding text to your logo and modifying letters for more personality
  • Creating logo mutations in various formats for different usages
