Logo Studio — an original logo, designed with you

For a business that doesn’t have a logo yet. (Already have one? Save it on the Brands page — it is never redrawn.)

Open Logo Studio
Step by step
  1. 1
    Fill in the brief

    The business name (spelled exactly as it should appear) and one line on what you do are required. Add a tagline, pick a mood, set your two colours or leave “You choose”, and say anything the logo must include or avoid. What you do matters more than it looks — it is what the symbol is drawn from.

    Choose Logo Studio or Plus

    Two cards, each listing what you get. Logo Studio is $149: up to three styles drawn, three refinement rounds and the full kit. Plus is $299: up to four styles, a second direction explored alongside your favourite, unlimited rounds for 14 days, a one-page brand guide PDF, avatars and favicons, and a starter set — a flyer, a business card and a social post already in your new brand. Press Start on the one you want. Nothing is charged until the directions are drawn.

    Pick a direction

    This is the part that makes the difference, and it is free. Instead of asking you to describe a logo, Restylez shows real styles that suit your business — each as a picture, with its name, why it fits you and what it is good for. Take up to three (four on Plus). You are not choosing your final logo here; you are choosing which starting points are worth drawing with your name on them.

    Say how closely to follow each one

    Under every style you take, two buttons. “This design, with my name” keeps that exact construction and puts your name and symbol into it — closest to the picture you clicked. “Something in this style” treats it as a family and draws a fresh arrangement with the same feel, so you get the mood without the same layout. Set them differently on different cards to see both at once.

    Or have one invented

    Under the grid is “Invent something”. Nothing is chosen from the library — the logo is worked out from your business alone. Use it when none of the styles fit, or when you want to see what an unguided idea looks like beside the guided ones.

    Press “Draw these”

    This is where the money is charged. Each one you took is drawn with your real name — all at the same time, not one after another, so three take about as long as one. A progress bar shows how far along it is. You can close the tab: the work carries on and your project is waiting when you come back.

    Take the direction you like

    The drawn directions come back side by side, each headed with the style it came from. “Take this direction” makes it the one you refine. “Try another take” redraws that same style differently — it never returns what you already saw. On Plus, “Explore alongside” keeps a second direction running in parallel so you can develop two and choose at the end.

    Refine it, a round at a time

    Say what should change in a sentence — “heavier letters”, “try it in green”, “more space around the symbol” — or press a ready chip. Each round draws three variations of your pick, deliberately different: one faithful to what you asked, one pushing it further, one rearranged. Pick the one to take further, or press “Keep the previous one” if none beat it. Three rounds are included; on Plus they are unlimited for 14 days.

    Mark it final and get the kit

    When it is right, press “Mark as final”. Every file is made from the exact version you kept: full colour, black and white on transparent, previews on dark and light, square icons at 1024 and 512, a 64px favicon and a traced SVG. Download them one at a time or as one zip.

    Save it as your brand, and show it off

    “Save as my brand” turns the logo and its main colours into a Brand — from then on New Design, Thumbnails and Slide Decks place this exact file on every piece, never redrawn. “Open the presentation” is a page showing the mark in use, the idea behind it and the whole kit: the thing to send a partner or a client.

Tips
  • Logo Studio is $149 and Plus is $299, charged when the directions are drawn — not when you start, and never for the picking step, which is free.
  • Three refinement rounds are included with Logo Studio; extra rounds are $15 each. Plus has unlimited rounds for 14 days. The kit, the brand and the presentation are free.
  • Nothing is lost by leaving. Every stage is saved as you go, the drawing carries on with the tab closed, and “Save for later” in the sidebar is there so you can see that it is safe.
  • The timeline down the left shows every stage. Click any stage you have passed to look back at it — read-only, so you can’t undo what you have done.
  • One change per round gives the cleanest result: “make the name bigger”, then “try a darker green”. Two changes at once fight each other.
  • These are original drawings made for you. We can’t promise a mark is unique or trademarkable — if you plan to register it, have a trademark search done first.
  • Names of well-known brands are refused. If your business shares a famous name, add what you do or where you are.
  • The SVG is traced from the black version. For a few marks the tracer can’t get a clean line; the page says so, and the PNGs are full size and print well.
If something goes wrong

The messages the page can show, and what to do.

Type the business name. / Say what the business does — one line is plenty.
The two required lines in the brief are empty. The Start button stays grey until both are in.
“…” looks like a well-known brand, and we only make logos for businesses that don’t have one yet.
The name matches a famous brand. If it is genuinely yours, add a word — what you do or your town — and try again.
This one didn’t come through.
The maker hit a snag on that direction. Press “Try again” on the card — a direction that fails is never charged.
None of the directions came through — nothing was charged.
The whole run failed, usually a busy image service. Wait a minute and press the button again.
That change didn’t take — say it a different way and try again.
The instruction was too vague. Name the thing and the change: “make the bean bigger”, “put the name under the symbol”.
Vector not available for this one.
The tracer couldn’t get a clean outline from this mark (fine detail or soft edges). The PNGs are full size and print well; a designer can redraw the vector from them.
Your 14 days of rounds are up.
The Plus window has closed. You can still mark the logo final and take the kit; extra rounds are $15 each from here.
Could not reach the maker — try again.
Your connection dropped for a moment. Check you’re online and press the button again. A job that fails is never charged.
You’re out of credits. Add some to keep going.
Your balance can’t cover this piece. Add credits on the Account page — your work carries on from where you left off. Nothing was charged.
