In the theoretical part of the diploma thesis we present the logo and its typology. We present the visual identity of a company, its elements and the importance of logotype for company recognition. A brief description of history of the development of logos and trends used in logo design over the last 100 years are shown.
In the experimental part of the diploma thesis we explored whether people recognize the company when displaying the logotype, whether they can indicate the colours used by the company, whether they can determine the font used by the company, and if the logotype is the most recognizable element of the company. We also explored whether people prefer old versions of logotypes or new, minimalist, versions of logotypes.
The results of the survey showed that most people recognize the company when displaying the logotype, that most people correctly indicate the colours used by the company, that people correctly identify the font used by the company, and that the logotype is most often the most recognizable element of the company. The results have also shown that most people prefer older versions of logotypes.
