This clothes cleaning establishment’s logo was so bad I had to show it to you, my friends.
This is a perfect case of “spend a little money and get a lot”. Hiring a really good designer to do a great logo might be expensive. But there are any number of mediocre designers out there who could do a much better logo for cheap.
Point being? If you have a professional-looking logo, you project an image of quality. A garbage logo like this one? Well, you do dry cleaning. Just dry cleaning.
Which of these hair salons would you be willing to spend more money at — top (Cuts to Dye For) or bottom (Vida Salon)?
That is a really ugly sign. I don’t much care for the bottom one either, but it’s eye-catching.
Wow... that’s hideous... and not only the logo, either. Place looks like some of these “gentlemen’s” clubs you see along the highway...
And, while the top logo is creative and shows some imagination... I prefer the bottom one.
Do I win?
I’ve been wondering for a while now, what if an establishment of sorts has a great logo/design, yet has horrible service/poor product. Theoretically, couldn’t a business that fails in all other respects have a great logo? How often does that happen? Can you think of any? I can’t, yet. Maybe that’s why we so readily connect good design with good business.
Thanks Tim, Steve & Johanna.
Steve: This was actually the back door. I shot it that way as it made the logo look even more dire.
Johanna: I agree that the best logos accurately reflect the business or organization they represent.
HAHAH yeah its horrible!
