Pastel colors are light, soft, and delicate hues that are commonly associated with femininity, springtime, and sweetness. Pastel colors are often used in graphic design, including logo design, to create a soothing, calming, and friendly atmosphere. Pastel colors can help to create a positive brand image by conveying a sense of approachability, trustworthiness, and simplicity.

Pastel colors can be used in various ways in logo design. One approach is to use a single pastel color for the entire logo, creating a monochromatic design that is elegant and understated. Another approach is to use a combination of pastel colors, creating a more colorful and dynamic logo that still retains the softness and gentleness of pastel hues. Pastel colors can be used in combination with other design elements, such as typography, to create a unique and memorable logo that stands out from the crowd.

Pastel colors are particularly well-suited for certain industries, such as beauty, fashion, and food. These industries tend to focus on creating a positive emotional connection with customers, and pastel colors can help to achieve this by creating a sense of calmness, comfort, and familiarity. However, pastel colors can be used in any industry where a gentle, friendly, and inviting image is desired.

The Artelile logo design incorporates multiple pastel colors. What's interesting is how that is enough to make the logo more appealing. The muted colors also make the text more readable against a purple background. The slogan comes in a lighter hue, providing a soft contrast but still making it easy to read. The font is quite playful, especially with the upward and downward curves.

 

2. Spooky

Just because pastel colors are calming, it doesn't mean you can't use them for Halloween. If anything, the juxtaposition between the muted colors and the season's theme makes the pastel logo design more interesting. Notice how colorful the witch is. The graphic has a red outline, separating it from the pastel-green background. The shading is amazing as well. It adds depth and texture.

 

3. Matcha Milk

When it comes to creating pastel color logos, you can be as creative as you want. That includes utilizing multiple colors in the logo. The Matcha Milk has five colors, but it doesn't appear overwhelming or stick out like a sore thumb. The soft colors keep it easy on the eyes. Meanwhile, the unusual graphic attracts the audience's attention and makes them curious.

 

4. Milk and Ice

If an intricate pastel logo design doesn't suit your brand's personality, consider a simple one. A simple logo can be just as attractive and even more memorable than an intricate one. The Milk and Ice logo is such a logo. It uses 3 - 4 pastel colors and has a simplistic design. Yet, it grabs attention easily and is easy to remember.

 

5. Dry Shampoo

The other colors are accents, which not only balance but also complement it and add interesting details. It is a fitting logo for a product that keeps customers fresh and joyful.

 

6. Glowsom

The Glowsom pastel logo design depicts a flower. What's interesting is how the logo is presented in two different colors. Yet, both are beautiful and fit the brand's personality. The first has a pink flower with a blue outline. The background has multiple shades of pink and blue. The second is much simpler: A blue flower with a pink outline and a blue background.

 

7. Flirt Kombucha

Orange is a color that stimulates appetite. Pastel orange brings more than that. The color is vibrant and fun. It makes the logo more appealing, especially since it is a wordmark. The pastel orange sets the perfect stage for the brand's name to stand out. In addition, as the orange stops midway through the brand's name, it creates an interesting, hard-to-miss visual cue.

 

8. Pluna™

The Pluna pastel logo design is as simple as it gets. It consists of an abstract graphic, and that's it. There is nothing more. Despite its apparent lack of details, the logo is quite memorable and easy to recognize. The pastel green represents energy and life. Not only the green makes the perfect background for the graphic, but it also creates a positive association.

 

9. Oazo

The Oazo's logo is also simple. It doesn't include an abstract graphic, however. Instead, the pastel logo features an oval and a classic black-and-white color. The color combination allows the logo to stand out effortlessly. It also makes it futureproof, as black and white always looks appealing. The font is thick and curvy, creating an intriguing and fun impression. The oval outline highlights it.

Created by Abdullah Mubin | https://dribbble.com/shots/18234769-Yarcone-Brand-Identity

 
Minimalist and professional, that's how we describe Yarcone's pastel logo design. Of course, that's not everything the logo brings to the table. Notice the logo typeface.

The muted background helps to create a soft contrast, highlighting the text so the audience can notice the logo.

 

22. Dialboost

Created by Elif Kameşoğlu | https://dribbble.com/shots/20238993-Dialboost-Logo-Design

 
For a pastel logo, Dialboost's logo doesn't include that many elements or colors. The logo has only three colors: pastel purple for the graphic, black for the text, and white for the background. The lack of details is not a downside, however. If anything, it does show how simplicity is kept in mind in the pastel logo design. It is certainly an excellent logo.

 

23. pink pelican

Created by Badr | https://dribbble.com/shots/18694188-pink-pelican

In addition, the simplicity makes the logo flexible too.

 

24. Tierra

Created by Elif Kameşoğlu | https://dribbble.com/shots/17638071-Tierra-Logo-Design
