How To Create New Google Logo – Photoshop Tutorial

This week, Google has introduced some latest updates in Google Search. Other than making changes in Search Options Panel, they introduced a new brighter, lighter and simpler Google Logo.

Here is a tutorial for you on how to create this new logo in photoshop.

Step 1:

Google logo uses Catull Regular font. So if you don’t have this font, first install this font.

Step 2:

Google logo uses four different colors, color codes are as follows

Blue : #1552d9 (letter G,g)

Red: #d62408 (first o, and e)

Yellow: #fca304 (second o in the logo)

Green: #01a20c (letter l)

I am going to use font size 250 for this logo. If you are going to design the logo in smaller size, the settings may vary a little.

So now your logo will look like this.

Step 3:

Right click the text layer (named Google), and click on Blending Options… Or you can go to Layer > Layer Styles > Blending Options with Google text layer selected. Now click on Drop Shadow style and make the following settings.

Blend Mode: Normal

Opacity: 71%

Angle: 120 degrees (Use Global Light)

Distance: 2

Spread: 10

Size: 4

The logo should look like this now

Step 4:

Now we will apply the Bevel and Emboss effect. Again go to Blending Options of Google Layer and click on Bevel and Emboss.

Make the following settings

Structure – Style: Inner Bevel, Technique: Smooth, Depth: 50%, Direction: up, Size: 25 px, Soften: 0 px

Shading Settings – Angle: 120, Altitude: 45, Highlight Mode: screen, opacity: 31%, Shadow Mode: multiply, opacity: 90%

And now the logo is ready. Here is what it should look like.

I hope you enjoyed the tutorial.
