6 fictional brands. 5 architectures. 6 registers.

What the logo-design skill produces in practice. Each brand shows the architectural exploration, typographic register, symbol approach, and application-context rigor that distinguishes a real production logo from a moodboard.

The framework

Five architectures, seven registers, ten categories.

The logo-design skill organizes mark exploration along three axes. Architecture answers what the mark is built from: a wordmark, a lockup, a symbol-only mark, a letterform treated as symbol, or a monogram. Register answers what the type construction signals: geometric sans, humanist sans, neo-grotesque sans, transitional serif, old-style serif, slab serif, or display custom. Category sets the convention: legal firms, consumer goods, B2B SaaS, hospitality, healthcare, financial services, editorial publishing, tech and AI, outdoor and apparel, fashion and luxury, restaurants, and craft makers.

Every variant in a presentation set takes a clear position on each axis so the brand owner can compare across the architectural decision rather than across surface-level styling. Variants that do not differ on architecture or register dilute the review. The skill works backward from this discipline: generate more candidates internally, narrow to a presentation set the client can evaluate, ship the nine-field spec for each.
