Does the shape still work without color?

Preparing artwork...

Background contrast

Find the surfaces where your logo stays clear.

Compare the mark and lettering on each surface.

Blur & silhouette

A 3px blur softens fine details so you can check whether the overall shape stays recognizable. If key gaps close or elements merge, the logo may rely too heavily on detail.

Original
3px blur
