Nautical themed logo designs have remained popular for years, particularly in seaside towns and cities as businesses and restaurants preserve their coastal heritage. This post showcases some modern examples of how designers are using this naval theme in their logo designs, often incorporating icons of anchors, ships and rope as decorative elements or texturing the design to produce an old weathered appearance.
