You want to a lot a trouble to fail at proving the content is separate from the thing itself.In terms of website development, the logo itself would be content. The act of designing that logo does not fall within the purview of web development.
In website development, design refers to the structure and organization of the website. That is, things layout, theme, and so on. Basically, anything that could be changed without changing the meaning constitutes design in web development. An easy way to think about it is to think of the design part of a website as its template. A template could be used to create an infinite number of websites simply by plugging in the content for each different site.
Content then becomes the actual text, images, and other forms of media.
Let's look at an example:
Here we have both text and an image. These are content. The design is that the text is standard size, a normal font face, undecorated, a default color, and the image is inline with the text. We can change the design without changing the content. For example:
The content remains the same, but the design has changed. Now, the image is block aligned. Meanwhile, the text is enlarged, it's colored differently, it's decorated (bolding), and a different font face is employed.
Finally, we can also retain the same design, while changing the content, like this:
The font face, color, size, and decoration are the same, the image alignment is the same. But the actual text is different and the image used is different. Instead of the bouncing bed animated image, I could use the apple logo instead, or the Rebel Alliance logo, or a picture of a sweet potato. Creating the design is an entirely separate act from creating the content.
