時代的轉變,企業識別標誌圖像不再只是一個符號或記號或圖案,而是一個賦有設計意義的圖像,且是具有美觀、易記及獨特之視覺造型特徵,把現代社會需要的意義,以巧妙的造型集合,使成為具有美感及容易瞭解意涵的標誌,並賦予形象人格精神以強化企業性格,所以標誌設計在企業識別的形象建立上,扮演舉足輕重的地位,而企業識別標誌的色彩、造形和應用方式則是引領企業識別系統視覺化的核心要素。本研究以標誌設計之色彩運用、造形應用方式及視覺意象探討與形象策略之間的關聯性,藉由成功企業的經驗法則,試圖找出其企業標誌設計表現方式的共同性與差異性,並提出標誌設計傳達企業形象策略,一套設計思考方向。研究結果發現,標誌設計以企業品牌、名稱的文字相輔具象與抽象造形表現及永續的、誠信的訴求中,以企業品牌、名稱的文字與抽象造形表現,透過圖像視覺的吸引力又同時將企業名稱或品牌意象直接呈現給大眾,容易從中瞭解其意涵,有強烈的辨識度。在親切的、環保的、活力的、人性的形象訴求,其企業標誌使用暖色系的赤色、橙色以及中性色系的綠色。在創新的形象訴求上,其企業標誌的設計主題運用「企業或品牌名稱的字首」或「企業或品牌名稱或字首與圖案組合」輔以抽象造形構成,以簡化且有現代感的手法,闡述企業的獨特個性,具有視覺的衝擊性。
