They can also be used to represent equality, fairness, and balance. Due to their relative lack of curves and rich shapes and their mirror-like symmetry, oval shapes are used widely for logos as they symbolize clear and orderly thinking. Square logos add professionalism, reliability, and trustworthiness to any company in the market. They can also be used to create associations with such qualities as solidity, stability, security, etc.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1074\" class=\"wp-image-5127\" src=\"https:\/\/www.logodesignvalley.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/blog_03-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"Square Shape Logo\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.logodesignvalley.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/blog_03-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/www.logodesignvalley.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/blog_03-300x126.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.logodesignvalley.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/blog_03-1024x429.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.logodesignvalley.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/blog_03-768x322.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.logodesignvalley.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/blog_03-1536x644.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.logodesignvalley.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/blog_03-2048x859.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" \/><\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>First of all, one must take into consideration the meaning and the associations of squares as the type and the shape of the logo. For instance, a shape that is square with round corners can easily be associated with friendliness, but a shape that is square with sharp corners will be associated with seriousness.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Furthermore, depending on the color harmony combined in the logo also plays an integral part in the perception of the logo. For instance, using a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.logodesignvalley.com\/blog\/square-logos\/\">square logo<\/a> with a bright color would be regarded as optimistic and lively, while a square logo that wears a dark or dull color would be considered classy.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/HRXcsz2q42M?si=cyi83zFWWag29_K9\" width=\"100%\" height=\"500\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<div class=\"wp-block-spacer\" style=\"height: 10px;\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\u00a0<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Circle Shape Logo<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Circles are typically used to represent togetherness, continuity, and totality. In addition to being signifying cyclical motion, they can represent unity, symmetry, and wholeness. Their shapes are unbroken and do not have the alpha and the omega, making them denote eternity and cycle. Circle logos are chosen to give a company or brand more unity, togetherness, and affiliation with its customers. They can also be used to create the feelings associated with warmth, households, and familiarity.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1074\" class=\"wp-image-5128\" src=\"https:\/\/www.logodesignvalley.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/blog_04-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"Circle Shape Logo\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.logodesignvalley.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/blog_04-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/www.logodesignvalley.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/blog_04-300x126.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.logodesignvalley.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/blog_04-1024x429.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.logodesignvalley.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/blog_04-768x322.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.logodesignvalley.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/blog_04-1536x644.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.logodesignvalley.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/blog_04-2048x859.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" \/><\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>One thing that has to be taken into account when creating a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.logodesignvalley.com\/blog\/circle-logo\/\">circle logo<\/a> is what certain connotations specific shapes have. For example, the circle with a hole in it will be viewed as more active, and the circle that is completely closed looks more complete.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Furthermore, the shades of color that can be used in the logo also determine its perception to the audience. For instance, a circle logo done in an animation color can be associated with joviality and vigor compared to a circle logo done in a serious color, which can be associated with elegance and class.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Triangle Shape Logo<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>The triangles are said to represent power, balance, and progression.

An upward triangle can represent growth, hope, and victory because it reaches upwards. Depending on the position, a downward-pointing triangle can have a meaning of stability, foundation, and so forth. Each of the sides of the triangle may be positioned to the side, allowing for its form to represent balance, duality, or perspective.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Vertical and horizontal logo shapes<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>The logo shapes can also be classified as Vertical logos and Horizontal logos.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Vertical logos are relatively thin, extending more downward than they do sideways; horizontal logos are quite wide, extending more sideways than they do downward.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Popular <a href=\"https:\/\/www.logodesignvalley.com\/blog\/types-of-logos-design\/\">types of logos<\/a> include horizontal, vertical, and other types, where logos can be used to portray highness, height, and growth, among others.
