Think brands like Coca-Cola or Goodyear. While recent trends may seem exciting and fresh, they also have the most potential to become outdated quickly. By establishing a classic design aesthetic for your brand, you could have something with serious staying power and the ability to reach a wide audience.
Starbuck’s badge logo is a good example of retro done right. Retro designs are great for brands that fit the aesthetic. Hip coffee shops and throwback hair salons are taking advantage of this look and updating it. While some may think of retro as old-hat, it’s experiencing a resurgence in popularity that your brand could take advantage of.

Google’s simple logo is a great example of this—probably because they invented it! This innovative and modern technique (the evolution of flat design) uses grids, light and shadow to create modern graphics. This may be the right design for someone in a web-based space or whose brand exists in a lot of online properties.
