It's really satisfying to create logomarks solely out of circles, idk why. A challenge, I guess.

I did a few back in my day as a designer:

2. https://dribbble.com/shots/1553151-Flint-mark-icons

That first one is some of my best work.

Constraints forces creativity. Some well chosen constraints are aesthetics rules that helps you land pleasing results. Poetry has a long history on that matter.

Another example of constrained creativity is early to mid nineties electronic music.

There's something oddly meditative about designing within strict constraints like circles
