Featured Design Contest: Yggdrasil Designs – Woodworking Company Logo

This client reached out because they were looking for a new logo for their business. They’re a company that makes woodworking crafts and projects. They were looking for a logo that they could put on their business cards and online store for marketing purposes. They wanted the logo to include the Yggdrasil tree, saying in their contest brief, ‘Yggdrasil is the “tree of life” in Norse mythology. They requested that this idea be incorporated into the design and Hatchwise creatives got to work on their entries! Let’s see all the details!

The logo is simple, clean, and in a circle. The design subtly conveys what the company does while showing a classy and simplistic design that stands out.
