The description
I was thinking to create a logo for my own design company (if I had one that is…). I am a Chinese and speak Cantonese would like to implement this element into my logo design. The term “POW” here means “Explosive”.
The sketches
The concept
POW
“POW”, the sound of an explosion. In cantonese language “Geng Pao” is an expression to describe amazing event or incident, same with “Mind-blowing”.
This is a design company that having the means in creating idea that is “Geng Pao”, thus fire element to symbolize the explosion effect is chosen.
Golden ratio
Create the logo with the implementation of the rule of golden ratio while try to mix the letter P and fire element.
The final outcome
With the understanding that one shall not follow the trend too deeply because it may pass someday, I’ve finally decided to sort of combine it, that is flat color added with shadow and finish off with a thin gradient.
