Logo design for UK businesses.

Original marks drawn from a real brief, tested at favicon size, and handed over with the written assignment UK law requires. Working hours overlap London most of the day.

What is different about commissioning a logo from the UK.

Almost nothing about the design itself. A mark that works for a Manchester joinery firm works on the same principles as one for a Melbourne cafe — it has to read at 16 pixels, survive one colour, and still look deliberate ten years later.

What genuinely differs is the paperwork around it, and it catches people out. Commissioning a logo and paying the invoice does not, on its own, make you the copyright owner under UK law. Copyright in a commissioned work starts with the person who created it. It moves to you when it is assigned in writing and signed. Without that document you have paid for something you do not own.

Every Dygram project ends with that assignment, on every package including the cheapest. It is not an upsell and it is not conditional on the tier you bought.

The four UK-specific things worth knowing.

Who owns it
Under UK copyright law the author of a commissioned work is the designer, not the client who paid. Ownership transfers by written assignment. We issue one on every project, signed, naming your company.
Company names
Companies House will refuse a name that is the same as one already on the register. That is a separate question from trademark — a registered company name gives you no protection against another business trading under a similar brand.
Trademarks
The UK Intellectual Property Office registers trade marks by class. Design and branding services sit in class 42; you will usually want the class covering your own goods or services, not ours. Check current fees at gov.uk — they change.
Working hours
Pakistan is four to five hours ahead of the UK depending on British Summer Time. A message sent from London at 9am lands mid-afternoon here, so same-day replies are normal rather than exceptional.

What you receive

Every project hands over the same set.

There is no British-specific version of the deliverables — a logo has to survive the same tests wherever it trades.

Vector sources you can open and edit, raster exports at the sizes people actually need, one-colour and reversed versions, and a signed assignment of copyright naming your company.

  • Primary, secondary and stacked lockups
  • Black, white and one-colour versions
  • Vector source files (AI, EPS, SVG)
  • JPG and PNG at every size
  • Signed copyright transfer document

Pricing

Three packages, billed in USD.

We quote in dollars rather than a fixed local price, because a fixed local price would be wrong the week after it was written.

Basic — $90

A business that needs one good mark and every file to use it, without the extras. 1 concept, unlimited revisions and the copyright assignment.

Standard — $175

Most brands. A real choice of directions, plus what you need to launch on social. 2 concepts, unlimited revisions and the copyright assignment.

Premium — $295

A launch or a rebrand, where everything has to match from day one. 4 concepts, unlimited revisions and the copyright assignment.

Questions

The ones British clients actually ask.

Do I own the logo outright if I am a UK company?

Only once it has been assigned to you in writing. Paying the invoice is not enough under UK law — copyright in a commissioned work begins with its author. Every Dygram project includes a signed assignment naming your company, on all three packages.

Can I trademark the logo you design?

Yes, and you should if the brand matters. You need to own the copyright first, which the assignment handles. Registration itself is done through the UK Intellectual Property Office, by class. We do not file on your behalf — that is a solicitor or trade mark attorney's job — but the vector files we hand over are what they will ask for.

Is Companies House registration the same as a trademark?

No, and conflating the two is the most common mistake we see. Companies House stops another company registering an identical name. It does nothing to stop a business trading under a confusingly similar brand. Only a registered trade mark does that.

How do I pay from the UK?

Everything is billed in USD — $90 for Basic, $175 for Standard, $295 for Premium. Your card or PayPal converts at the day's rate, so the sterling figure moves slightly. We quote USD rather than a fixed pound price because a fixed one would be wrong within a week.

Will the timezone slow the project down?

It has not so far. First drafts land in 24–36 hours and the average reply time across 2,604 projects is about an hour. Because we are ahead of the UK, work you brief at the end of your day is usually waiting when you start the next.

Do you work with UK agencies as a white-label studio?

Yes. Several of the guideline documents in our portfolio were produced for agencies who presented them under their own name. The copyright assignment is written to your client in those cases, not to us.
