Step 1:
Let's start out by creating a new file. I used a 500x400 pixels canvas set at 72dpi, and I filled my background with a black color. Then create a new layer set titled 'Logo Structure'.
Select the Polygon Tool, under the options palette choose fill pixels with 3 sides and anti-aliased checked. Now open up the polygon options palette and check smooth corners and uncheck star setting. In a new layer draw a gray polygon with #585858 color shade and 92x90 px dimensions.
Step 2:
Go to Edit > Transform > Perspective, when the transform points appear on your shape drag the the top right point up until you get the same design as shown below.
Step 3:
Under Layer Style(Layer > Layer Style) add an Inner Shadow, Satin and Gradient Overlay blending options to the deformed gray polygon layer.
Step 4:
Create a new layer and draw a black circle with 16×16 px dimensions. Now under Layer Style(Layer > Layer Style) add a gradient overlay blending option. Then set the layer's blending mode to Soft Light.
Step 5:
Duplicate the circle design layer three times and position it as shown below.
Step 6:
Duplicate the 'Logo Structure' layer set and go to Layer > Merge Layer Set, this should turn the duplicated layer set into a regular layer. Resize the duplicate design by 60% and position inside the original design. Then under Layer Style(Layer > Layer Style) add an Outer Glow and Color Overlay blending options.
Step 7:
Place the smaller logo structure design into the 'Logo Structure' layer set. Then add two circle designs on the top corner of the logo design.
Step 8:
Once again duplicate your 'Logo Structure' layer set and merge it down. Flip the duplicate horizontal through Edit > Transform. Position it right next to the original.
Step 9:
Now duplicate the logo structure layer from step eight and resize by 50%. Then rotate it by 90 degrees CCW through Edit > Transform. Finish it off with another copy for the second structure.
Step 10:
Select the Horizontal Type Tool and set the font family to Arial Black, regular, 36 pt, strong and #C8ADAD color shade. In a new text layer type your name. Then under Layer Style(Layer > Layer Style) add an Inner Shadow and Satin blending options.
Results:
Futuristic Logo Design.
