Companies and organizations love to show off the logos of their biggest clients. When they do so on a slide, the result is often a mishmash.
Before
The title of this slide is in an awkward place, so the logos look like they’re swarming around it. There is a grouping of blue logos which is distracting when you notice it (You’re welcome!). And the Starrett and Dunkin’ Donuts logos are slightly larger than the rest of them. Are these clients more important? Sure seems that way.
After
First, I created a grid of boxes with thin grey lines. I placed the logos in the center of each box and made them all about the same size. Finally, I repositioned the title to the middle of the slide. The resulting slide looks clear, balanced, and professional!
Key Points
Too much randomness can be confusing. Organize icons and logos in a grid for clarity.
