Logo design plays a crucial role in any business. That is why you cannot afford to go wrong with the logo you choose to represent your business.

Throughout the years logo design has transformed tremendously. New and improved techniques are constantly being introduced to the field of art and design. Experts in their respective fields are coming up with new logo trends. Get inspired by these top 15 logo designs of 2015. 

But first, let’s see what features will have a great impact on the logo design industry this year.

Size + Flexibility

As our screens continue to get smaller, the digital world continues to be reduced to symbols and our communication becomes more dependant on icons. Logos are adapted to mobile screens, more flat and defined by mono-lines. 

We can’t avoid mentioning the development in the innovations of 3D printing, which has already taken the world by storm. 

Blend these two ideas together and get a cocktail for a motion logo that can be seen from every angle on devices of all sizes. 

So what is new in the field of logo design?

Dotted Lines

Mono-line trend moved one step forward by adding circles at each sharp tip. It almost brings me back to my childhood, playing connect dots.
