I designed this logo for our Graphic Beetles peer-up team, which was assigned by @Maria Ijaz , and although we were free to design it however we wanted, I chose to create mine in Adobe Illustrator. Through this assignment, I got to refine what I already knew about logo design, it reminded me how important clear concepts, meaningful symbols, and smart use of negative space are when you want a logo to feel purposeful and not just look pretty. My logo combines a beetle shape representing teamwork and growth, and a pen nib created through negative space, symbolizing creativity, design tools, and the idea that smart design comes from thoughtful shapes rather than extra details. I designed this logo using basic shapes in Illustrator and refined them by cutting and merging with the Shape Builder Tool, along with custom Pen Tool adjustments for clean curves and balance. It took me around 1–2 hours to complete the entire process, including shaping, refining, and final polishing. I chose red and black to reflect our team’s personality. Red symbolizes energy, passion, and creativity, while black adds professionalism and balance. Together, they create a contrast that highlights the beetle shape and negative-space pen nib, making the logo bold and meaningful. If anyone wants to learn 2D Illustration, Graphic Design, or Video Editing, you’re more than welcome to join us, we’re all learning and growing. Alhamdulillah, this assignment was a great start, and Insha Allah we’ll continue improving and exploring more creative skills as a team. 🐞✨
