Someone first showed me this video in high school when I started talking about majoring in Graphic Design in college. Years later, with a BFA in Graphic Design, three years into the field, this is still the most useful video I've ever watched in relation to my career.
This 15 minutes was more helpful and inspiring than a longer "logo design" course I just watched! The way the text and mark just work together blows my mind; it feels cohesive, it fits the company without being obvious or derivative. Amazing. My key takeaway is to keep it simple and the impact will be bigger.
This video is still relevant and always will be, even as we move into a world of AI. Thanks, Aaron, for taking us through your process and inspiring young designers! You are a treasure in the visual art and design community!
mind you the guy's been doing this his entire life... choices he made look simple but it'll take a lot of research to get there... he just done and seen a lot that's why he could instinctively do this
i think this is a re up load .... but Aaron Draplin is my favorite graphic designer the way his mind works is amazing he has made me a wayyyyy better designer shouts out to Aaron Draplin tho!
Bro, you are amazing! Thank you for sharing your process. I'm in my senior year of a design degree and struggling to create the essence of the company. Your video has been a big help!
You are cool! Hopefully one day people will stop looking at graphic design as only ‘operating software”. There is so much intelligence and creativity in designing!
I figured it out. With the move tool selected, set the reference point (that little 3x3 grid-looking tool next to the align tools) to the middle bottom block, then hold SHIFT and drag. Phew!
You are a bad ass. I paint and draw but have a graphic Tshirt design request. Your videos and your book always give me a hell yeah I want to make something cool right now. Thanks for the boost. My drawing mentor quote “if it’s not a big beautiful shape, no one is going to care about it” -Joseph Mann I feel like you would give the same advice.

Aaron is a kickass, All-American, down-to-earth graphic designer. We need more of his ego-less creative passion in this world!
Exactly!! 🙌
Ego friendly design.
Took me 20 minutes to find back to this video 7 years later. Still so damn impressive.
3 years before I watched this video and was encouraged much to design logos. And present now I designing logos. Thanks much for making it Sir Aaron 🙏
Watched this 4 years ago and I still use some of his tips & tricks daily in my job
This is absolutely the best design tutorial ever put together and shared on UA-cam. Let me repeat that: the best *ever*. An absolute inspiration.

Most beautiful thing that i have seen in the longest time
At 9:52 how in the sweet Jesus does he scale that triangle proportionally from the top, using the bottom edge as a reference?
I figured it out. With the move tool selected, set the reference point (that little 3x3 grid-looking tool next to the align tools) to the middle bottom block, then hold SHIFT and drag. Phew!
