25 Inspiring Examples of Sketching in Logo Design

Whether you’re a graphic or UI designer, the first stage of any project – sketching your initial ideas on paper – is crucial. This step is often overlooked, but it’s essential for delving deep into your knowledge and imagination and bringing your creative ideas to life.

Watching the sketching process in action can be a thing of beauty, and today we’re excited to showcase some examples of the initial logo design process. These examples offer a glimpse into the early stages of the branding process and provide inspiration for your next project.
