In a new logo, the individual elements of the design are fine, but when they are combined, they just don’t work well together. What is lacking in this logo?

In this case, the lacking element in the logo design may be cohesion or harmony. This could be due to conflicting visual elements, colors, or typography that are not complementing each other well. It is important for all elements in a logo design to work together harmoniously to create a cohesive overall look. If the individual elements are fine on their own but do not work well together when combined, it may be necessary to revise the layout, adjust the hierarchy of elements, or reconsider the color palette to improve the overall unity of the design.
