A logo is the first thing customers remember and the last thing you want to get wrong. If you’re weighing up logo design in Melbourne and what it costs, the honest answer is: it depends on whether you need just a mark, or a brand system that works on a sign, a shopfront, a uniform and a website. This guide breaks down costs, the process, and what makes a logo actually work.

What logo design costs in Melbourne
| Option | Typical price | What you get |
|---|---|---|
| Logo only | $300–$800 | A primary logo + basic files |
| Logo + essentials | $800–$2,000 | Logo variations, colours, fonts, basic guide |
| Full brand identity | $2,000–$5,000+ | Logo system, brand guidelines, collateral |
Very cheap "$50 logos" usually mean a template or a single concept with no strategy — fine for some, risky if you’re building a lasting brand. See examples in our portfolio and our graphic design & branding service.
The design process, step by step
A professional process is what separates a forgettable logo from a strong one. Here’s the short version, also explained well in this video:
- Discovery — your business, audience and competitors
- Concepts — a few distinct directions, not 50 random options
- Refinement — colour, type and balance dialled in
- Delivery — all file formats, plus a simple brand guide
What makes a logo work
- Simple — recognisable at a glance and at any size
- Scalable vector files — sharp from a favicon to a billboard
- Versatile — works in colour, mono and reversed
- Distinctive — doesn’t look like every competitor

Frequently asked questions
How much does a logo cost in Melbourne?
A logo on its own typically runs $300–$800, a logo with brand essentials $800–$2,000, and a full brand identity $2,000–$5,000+. You get a fixed quote before we start.
What files will I receive?
You receive scalable vector files plus web and print formats, colour and mono versions, and a simple brand guide so your logo is used consistently.
Why are some logos so cheap?
Very low prices usually mean a template or a single concept with no discovery or strategy. That can suit a quick start, but it’s risky for a brand you want to last.
Can you also build my website to match?
Yes — branding and web design under one roof keeps everything consistent, from your logo and colours to your site and marketing.
Should I trademark my logo?
If your brand matters, it’s worth considering. IP Australia explains the trademark process; we design your logo so it’s suitable for protection and broad use.
