Logos of All Shapes & Sizes
Our logo portfolio is diverse
We have created hundreds of logos for businesses and organisations of all shapes, sizes, backgrounds and industries. Whatever your business, we can create a solution tailored to your unique requirements and specifications.
When most people come to us for help developing their brand, they tend to have a preconceived notion that once they have a logo, they have a brand. But a logo doesn’t make a brand! In fact, a logo is just one of many building blocks in a brand’s visual identity.
A brand identity will usually start with your logo, but could also include a range of other important visual and verbal brand elements. The visual elements are what determines how your brand looks and the verbal elements are what determine how your brand communicates.

Tell more of your brand story with logo animation
Animated logos have become increasingly popular due to the growing obligation for brands to maintain a digital presence. As well as creating an eye-catching element on the page, animation allows brands to convey more about their identity and messaging in a way that static images can’t achieve.
Red Kite’s team can not only create a logo that looks great in all applications but also animate it to better tell your story and create engagement.
Our logos are strategically designed to tick all the right boxes
Your business logo is a key touchpoint on the customer journey, making it an extremely valuable sales tool. An eye-catching logo helps your business stand out and leaves an amazing job of a first impression. Don’t underestimate it.
First Impressions
A potential customer takes less than 3 seconds to decide if they will invest any more time in a company’s products or services. A logo is often the first thing they see and the basis on what this decision is made. Making a great first impression is extremely important!
Differentiation
There is more choice available to consumers than ever before. A logo is a way to stand out from the crowd, to stay a step ahead of the competition and draw the spotlight in a crowded marketplace. Grab the attention of prospective clients with a logo that is appropriate, simple and distinctive.
Brand Foundation
When done well, a good logo is the first and most important building block of a company’s entire brand. All elements of a business’s branding should be consistent and cohesive. The best way to ensure this is to start from the logo up!
Brand Loyalty
If a customer associates your logo with a positive memory, and even better, a positive feeling, they are even more likely to remember you and find you again. Once trust is established people will seek you out. Your logo is their way-finder!
Investing Now, Saves Later
Going with a quick fix, or sticking with a poorly designed or inappropriate logo may in fact lead to costs in the future that could have been avoided. Future rework, rebrands, amends and inconstancies can all be avoided with a well considered brand mark.
Credibility
A logo is an important credibility anchor for any business. It shows that a company is professional and well established. To not have a logo at all can give the opposite impression, that a business is disorganised, inexperienced or even untrustworthy.
Our design process & the business growth it delivers
Red Kite is the answer to your Adelaide logo designer prayers, offering professional logo design services and graphic design expertise that help Adelaide businesses achieve their goals and stand out in a crowded market.

“Highly recommend investing in a professional service like Chris’ – worth every penny”
“After trying several designers that weren’t quite hitting the mark, I was so happy I was referred to Chris. He was the first one who took the time to pick up a call and get a solid understanding of what I was looking to achieve, communicated openly and professionally throughout the whole process and worked efficiently to get a beautiful job done in only a couple of weeks. And that’s with my slow responses as I couldn’t decide what I liked, due to everything he produced being fabulous. Not a bad problem to have lol. Highly recommend investing in a professional service like Chris’ – worth every penny.”

“Working with Chris has been a pleasure and the results are spectacular”
“TrussCorp employed the services of RedKite to help us with a complete re-brand of all our material over the last six months. Working with Chris has been a pleasure and the results are spectacular. We could not recommend him more highly. His skill, creativity and speed are all amazing and he couldn’t be more accommodating or helpful.”
Have questions? Here’s some answers to our most common inquiries
How much does logo design cost?
The quickest way to check out our packages and pricing? Just shoot us an enquiry or request a quote. As soon as you do, we’ll reveal all the details: packages, pricing, and resources to help you decide if we’re the right fit for your business.
Red Kite offers logo design packages tailored for Adelaide businesses at all stages, from brand-new startups building their first identity to established companies looking to reposition. Our packages are transparent with no hidden costs, and we provide a comprehensive suite of deliverables including a logo style guide, usage documents, and every file format you’ll need. If the initial designs don’t land where you hoped, we keep refining at no additional cost until you’re genuinely happy.
Most agencies cap the number of revision rounds included. We offer unlimited revisions because a logo design isn’t finished until you’re genuinely happy with it, with no additional cost for going back and forth until we get it right. Red Kite does not limit the number of concepts or revisions in our logo design packages, allowing for extensive client input throughout the entire project.
Logo design costs in Australia vary widely depending on scope, complexity, and the level of service you need. At Red Kite, we price around the outcome rather than a rate card, so a single logo mark and a full brand identity for an Adelaide business sit at very different ends of the range. All logo design packages include essential file types such as vector files, high-resolution PNG, PDF, and other formats ready for web, print, and signage. If you’re after a formal proposal, we’ll hop on a quick discovery call to learn about your project and craft a tailored quote. Simple as that!
How long does the logo design process take?
Logo design timelines across the Australian market typically run from a couple of weeks to a couple of months depending on scope. For most Adelaide logo design projects, you’re looking at around two weeks from briefing to final delivery, though the exact timeline depends on how quickly feedback comes in and how detailed the brief is. We don’t lock to a rigid schedule because the goal is a final design you’re genuinely proud of, not a rushed result. If our workload is particularly heavy at the time you enquire, we’ll let you know upfront so you’re kept in the loop.
How many logos will I receive?
Unlike many agencies, we don’t believe in limiting the number of concepts or revisions—it’s all part of the package.
We’ll kick things off by sharing a single idea we feel nails your brief. But if we miss the mark, no worries! We’ll keep working with you, one concept at a time, until you’re completely in love with the final design.
Every concept is carefully crafted using the insights from your initial interview, and we make sure each one lines up with the goals we set together at the start.
Once you give the final thumbs-up, we’ll polish it up and deliver your logo in all the formats and variations you’ll need. After your final payment, you’ll get the full set of files, with complete copyright ownership passed to you!
What if I don’t like the logo designs I am presented?
We use the insights gained from the discovery phase to fuel your logo designs, so it’s important to share as much information as you can about what you want and what you’re looking to achieve. A thorough discovery phase lets us research your industry, competitors, and target audience before a single concept is drawn. High-quality logos require genuine research and thought, so we never promise a quick fix or rush any stage of the design brief. We also avoid machine-generated or free online logo makers: they typically produce generic results that lack the versatility and strategic depth a real brief demands.
When we present the initial logo concepts, we’ll explain why each one meets the objectives of your overall brand strategy and business goals, so you know why we’ve made each decision. From creating a certain visual tone to appealing to your ideal customer, there are lots of ways for your logo to support your business strategy.
It’s important to bear in mind that a logo that functions well might not necessarily be something that’s to your personal taste. Although we want you to love your logo, it’s more important that your target audience loves it, and that’s where our main focus will be.
At the start of the logo design process, we’ll ask for a payment of 50% of the total project price. In the unlikely event that you don’t like the final versions of any of the logo designs, you won’t need to pay the final amount.
What do I get at the end of the process?
At the end of the project you will receive a link to a shared folder containing your new logo in all industry standard file formats and colour profiles, ready for use across everything from print to digital. The final logo design is delivered in all industry-standard file formats: vector files, high-resolution PNG, PDF, black and white versions, and any other formats your suppliers or design teams will need. This means your new logo works seamlessly across web, print, and large-format signage without any compromise to quality.
Included in your folder will be:
File Formats:
JPEG – Small file size, perfect for applications such as email signatures.
PNG – Lossless compression and transparency supported. Perfect choice for digital and web applications.
PDF – Universally recognised vector file format. Useful for redistribution.
EPS – Editable, scalable and transparent, this versatile format is perfect for any application, especially print.
SVG – Editable, scalable and very small file size. Perfect for web and logo animation.
AI – Adobe Illustrator file is the industry standard for easy editing and sharing with other designers.
Colour Profiles:
CMYK – Full colour logo. Industry standard for any print materials.
RGB – Full colour logo. Industry standard for any on screen applications.
PMS – Full colour logo. Highest degree of accuracy for precision printing.
Positive Colour Profile – CMYK & RGB versions of your logo in full positive colour profile, for use on light backgrounds.
Negative Colour Profile – CMYK & RGB versions of your logo in a negative colour profile. Inverse colours (predominantly white) for use on dark backgrounds.
Black Silhouette – A pure black version of your logo is provided, ideal for use on black and white or single colour documents.
White Silhouette – An all white version of your logo is provided. Perfect for use over full colour, patterned or photographic backgrounds.
Logo Usage Document
You will receive a basic logo style guide or detailed brand style guide. This contains the details of your new identity system for use internally, or to distribute to external design agencies in the future. This helps maintain brand consistency wherever your logo is used.
Logo or Brand Style Guide
We’ll send you a fully branded logo style guide detailing how to use your new identity system correctly, including spacing rules, colour profiles, and dos and don’ts. Your logo style guide is the professional logo document that keeps your branding consistent across all platforms, whether shared with your internal team or passed to external graphic designers and design agencies. Clients typically receive the logo style guide alongside their full file pack, covering every format needed for digital design, print, and signage.
What if I want to make changes to my logo design?
We welcome your feedback throughout the design process, guiding us in the right direction so we can make sure you love the finished product. Explaining what you do and don’t like can be hard to put into words, but the more detailed your input, the better the end result will be.
Once your logo has been finalised and paid for, we’re happy to make further changes for you, but they will be chargeable at an agreed hourly rate. Simple amends can be made in an hour, while any complex design changes will take longer to complete and will therefore cost more. To avoid any additional charges, we recommend providing detailed feedback throughout the design process.
Who owns the copyright?
Red Kite owns the copyright while the project is ongoing, but once the final payment has been made, copyright will transfer to you. We only reserve the right to include your logo in our design portfolio.
Can you animate my logo?
Yes we can! Animated logos are a great addition to digital applications like social media posts and websites, and can help you to stand out.
As standard, we design our logos with simplicity and versatility at their core, which means they usually take well to being animated. Red Kite specialises in creating both static and animated logos to improve digital engagement and ensure your brand makes an impression in video, presentations, and across social platforms.
If you’re interested in animating your logo, let us know. We can chat through the style and feel you’re after, explore creative directions, and run concepts by you to make sure the final animation feels aligned with your brand.
Please note that logo animation is an additional service and is not included in our standard logo design packages.
Do you do more than just logos?
We’re a branding and graphic design agency, so we do everything you’d usually expect from these services.
We love a good logo, but they work best as an individual element in a larger brand strategy. Red Kite’s designers can develop a complete brand identity for you from scratch, create graphic assets for digital use, and produce printed media for your business. Our branding and graphic design services include:
Please note: Some services, such as signage, packaging production and vehicle wraps, may involve external suppliers for print or production. When needed, we can guide the process, liaise with trusted partners, and help ensure everything comes together smoothly.
Do you only work with businesses in your local area?
Adelaide is just one of the cities that we offer logo design and brand identity services to. Our logo design services extend across South Australia and the rest of the country, from small businesses in regional areas right through to larger organisations in every major city. Logo design agencies in Adelaide offer tailored solutions to meet the unique requirements of businesses, and Red Kite is no exception: we provide graphic design services and digital design thinking that travels well beyond the Adelaide market.
In fact, our flexible approach means that we can support clients all over Australia, and even abroad. Local designers understand South Australian consumer trends and the Adelaide market more effectively than a one-size-fits-all agency ever could. If you’re looking for a graphic design agency that offers substance along with the style, you’ve found it in Red Kite.
What types of logos do you design, and what makes a great logo work?
Different logo families suit different kinds of businesses, and there’s some logic to which industries lean toward which forms. Wordmarks work hard for businesses where the name itself is distinctive enough to carry the brand. Lettermarks suit organisations with long names that need a compact identifier. Pictorial marks fit businesses where a single recognisable image can stand for what they do. Abstract marks tend to land in tech, finance, and other fields where there isn’t an obvious literal image. Combination marks pair both, which is why they’re popular across professional services, retail, and hospitality. Emblems often surface in education, sport, and government. Different industries in Adelaide require logos that reflect their unique characteristics and target audiences, which is why working out the right family for your specific brief is one of the first things we settle during the logo design process. Industry-specific logos can also enhance credibility and recognition for businesses in Adelaide, giving your brand a visual shorthand that fits your sector immediately.
Design trends shift over time, and in recent years we’ve seen a clear pull toward neo-minimalism, freehand mascot styles, and retro-futurism across different sectors. These aren’t defaults we apply to every brief; they’re tools we reach for when they fit the Adelaide business and its market. What matters most is that your logo works across every application, right down to 16×16 pixels for a browser favicon, and still reads as distinctly yours.
A logo that lasts has the same three qualities regardless of sector. It needs to read at thumbnail size, look distinctly different from the rest of its competitive landscape, and adapt cleanly across an ever-widening set of formats including digital design, animated, and large-scale print. We approach this as part of cost-effective logo design rather than a finish-and-forget exercise: the goal is a mark that doesn’t need replacing in a few years. All logo design services in Adelaide should deliver final designs in multiple file formats suitable for both print and digital use, and that’s exactly what we do. Stylistic touches like minimalist forms, bold colour, or organic human elements are tools we reach for when the brief calls for them, not defaults to add visual noise.
How do I choose the right logo designer, and what kind of work have you done?
Choosing a logo design agency in Adelaide is mostly about three things in roughly this order: the portfolio, the process, and the fit. Look at the work first because that tells you whether the agency can actually deliver across different briefs or whether they apply the same template to everyone. Check that their portfolio contains logos designed for real clients: that’s the difference between a graphic designer who can solve business problems and one who only shows conceptual work. Look at the process second because that’s where the difference between a logo that feels strategic and one that feels arbitrary actually shows up. A good graphic designer or logo design agency should adapt their style to the client’s brand rather than using a uniform approach for all clients. Look at the fit last but don’t undervalue it: you’ll be working closely with whoever you pick for the duration of the project. Price feels like the obvious lever to pull, but the cheapest brief almost always costs more by the time the rebrand becomes necessary.
Top logo design professionals in Adelaide typically provide an initial consultation to build a relationship and ensure alignment with your goals before any design work begins. A good graphic designer or logo design agency will also be transparent about what the logo design process looks like end to end: how many concepts are presented, what the revision policy is, and who owns the copyright at sign-off. At Red Kite, we present one strong, fully developed concept, offer unlimited revisions, and transfer full copyright to you once final payment is made.
We work with Adelaide businesses across a wide range of sectors, from small businesses building their first identity through to established organisations repositioning after years in market. The portfolio on our site covers cafes, agencies, professional services, manufacturers, charities, tech and B2B work, with case studies that walk through the strategic process behind each one. If you’re shortlisting Adelaide logo designers, the most reliable signal is the work itself, not the headline numbers on the website.
Why does a logo matter, and how does it fit into a cohesive brand identity?
A logo matters because it does the most visible work in your brand identity. People form impressions of businesses in seconds, and the logo is one of the first things they use to decide whether you look professional, considered, and worth a closer look. When the mark is right, every other piece of marketing benefits from being attached to it. When the mark is wrong, everything else has to work harder to make up the gap.
Professional logo design services in Adelaide focus on creating clear, consistent, and memorable brand visuals that build trust over the long term. A strong brand identity doesn’t just look good: it gives your business a competitive edge that compounds in value as your reputation grows. That’s exactly why a logo matters and why it sits at the centre of your brand rather than off to the side as decoration.
Custom logo design also plays an important role in how South Australia businesses signal quality and professionalism to their clients. A well-designed mark tells prospective clients you’re established and credible before they’ve read a single word. That first impression compounds over time into genuine brand loyalty, which is why investing in a professional logo design early is one of the most cost-effective decisions a growing Adelaide business can make. Good design doesn’t happen by accident; a strategic process makes sure it happens every time.
That said, a logo isn’t a brand by itself. The brand is the bigger system: colour, typography, photography style, illustration approach, tone of voice, and how those elements interact across every customer touchpoint. A logo without a brand identity sitting behind it is just a mark, and plenty of technically clean logos still feel disconnected from the businesses they’re meant to represent because there’s no supporting system. The way we approach logo design for Adelaide businesses is to plan it inside a cohesive brand identity from the outset. For some that means a full identity build; for others it means a final logo project that drops cleanly into a system already in place. Worth being clear about which one you’re actually after before any concept work starts.
