Key Elements
01
The typeface selected for the logo is Korolev; a bold, modern, and geometric sans-serif font. It supports multiple weights and has a clean, strong, and versatile design that resonates with the skateboarding community. Its modern touch ensures that the logo feels current and fresh, while its geometric design conveys a sense of stability and strength. Overall, this typeface aligns with the project's objective of creating a logo that connects with the skateboarding community and has a modern and bold aesthetic.
02
The logo features a modified letter "K" with a pin icon incorporated into it, which speaks to the app's main mapping feature. The use of this visual element adds a unique and creative touch to the logo, making it more memorable and recognizable to users.

Korolev typeface was also selected because of its unique Letter shapes. Above are some extracted shapes that match specific skateboarding obstacles. These help strengthens the connection to skateboarding culture, while also providing elements that can get used for other branding visuals. These custom shapes can be used for background graphics, iconography, patterns, and other branding visuals that support and enhance the brand identity.
Overall, the logo is simple yet distinctive, capturing the essence of skateboarding and the functionality of the app.
