These designs are able to load fast and look beautiful on various screen sizes. As you know the number of smartphone users is rising day by day, as per many forecasts, leading to the minimalism trend to continue into the year ahead.

Different logo designs will use multiple combinations of simple geometric shapes. However, geometric shapes are pretty simple from a technical point of view, they provide endless possibilities to design the logo of your choice that attracts the customers. Such decisions are a great option for organizations having a wide range of target audience.
ASYMMETRIC LAYOUTS

Overlapping will be a logo design trend for next year. The use of bright shapes with warms colors that overlap each other will be very highly popular among many companies. A new color, which is created by overlapping the area of two colors, forms an eye-catching logo. Such logos impart interesting meaning that is important in the development of any quality business.
FONTS
Observing the trends of 2018, experts agree on the fact that it was a period that involved a lot of textual logos. Hence, this trend has given more opportunities for experimenting with fonts. Some techniques are still being actively used, including Indents, Kerning, and Alignment of letters. Interestingly, this trend will likely to continue in the year 2019.
ILLUSTRATIONS
Storytelling has become a strong part of branding and advertising, but the fact remains that a compelling narrative can be enormously effective when it comes to engaging consumers, and getting across a brand’s personality and purpose.
Illustrations are a great way of taking people on a journey, whether you’re literally walking people through a brand’s story using illustrated scenes or characters or constructing a subtler narrative across various brand touchpoints.
These are just a few of the design trends that will be observed in 2019. Diving into the design trends made popular in 2018 is a good way to have a better idea of the eye-catching design elements in 2019. The things that did not work particularly well are likely to fade away. While the things that users responded to are likely to grow in continue to evolve.
