Logo review of delica*

Legibility

Most letters are distinguishable at medium to large sizes.
The playful, handwritten feel adds personality.

The final 'a' is overly stylized and may be confused with an 'o' or decorative flourish, impacting fast readability.
The asterisk as the dot on the 'i' slightly disrupts simple reading.
Thin and inconsistent line thickness reduces clarity at small sizes.

Scalability versatility

Simple color scheme enhances potential for versatile application.

Thin line weight will struggle on small surfaces like business cards, pens, or embroidery.
Excessively stylized 'a' may lose definition at smaller scales or in print.
Not suitable for favicon or mobile app icon due to lack of boldness and minute details.

Balance alignment

Loose alignment supports the playful style.

The exaggerated heights (especially the 'l'), the uneven baselines, and the oversized final 'a' make the logo feel unbalanced.
Visual weight is too heavy on the right side due to the oversized 'a' flourish.

Originality

Distinctive handwritten character and use of the asterisk for the 'i' dot adds a unique twist.
Swash on the 'a' is memorable despite legibility tradeoff.

Handwritten wordmarks are commonly used in the food industry for 'friendly' brands.
No additional creative use of negative space or multilevel symbolism.

Aesthetic look

Playful, light-hearted style fits food/restaurant branding aiming for approachability.
Monochrome delivers a clean and modern aesthetic.

Excessive swirl and inconsistency in letterforms add a chaotic, unfinished look.
Overly casual execution may make it appear unprofessional for higher-end applications.

Dual meaning and misinterpretations

No obvious inappropriate double meanings or problematic shapes are present.

Color harmony

Only a single color (black) is used, making for strong contrast and universal applicability.
Works on both light and dark backgrounds.
