When Should You Redesign Your Logo? 8 Signs and the Right Approach

A logo redesign should be considered when the logo fails on digital screens, the brand’s positioning or scope has changed, it looks dated or similar to competitors, after a merger, or when usage has become inconsistent.

A logo redesign should be considered when there is a clear reason, not just internal fatigue. Eight common signs:

  • The logo is illegible on phones, app icons or social profiles.
  • Brand positioning or target audience has changed.
  • The business has expanded beyond what the symbol describes.
  • It relies on dated trends.
  • It now looks similar to competitors.
  • A merger or restructuring has taken place.
  • International expansion creates reading or meaning issues.
  • Usage has become inconsistent and master files are missing.

Choose between an evolutionary refresh that keeps recognisable elements and a full redesign for fundamental change. A sound process covers analysis, deciding what to keep, a new brief, design and testing, updating the identity system, checking trademark status with an attorney, a rollout plan and an announcement. Racoun approaches redesigns by protecting the equity the existing logo already holds.
