Logos are probably the most difficult aspect of graphic design. You have to say so much with so little. Below are 9 logos that have caught my eye lately. Click on the logo for a link to the designers website. Enjoy!
- Bold type, thick letters, its texasssss baby
- I like how the symbol is integrated with the type.
- If my desk were white it would have coffee stains all over it! Love coffee related logos!
- I dig the playful use of type with the word cycle
- Cant resist the sexy swashes!
- Very simple, awesome use of negative space.
- Clever pyramid/crown symbol made me do a double take
- Love the stylized symbol in this one
- Last but not least: Bananas, film, come on! Very clever!

My favorite is Fit that uses the negative space. I didn’t even have to think and i said it, even though it truly only shows “f” and “t”. I also like the Banana Films one a lot. Good inspirations!

#5 reminds me of Louis Fili ( http://www.louisefili.com/ ). Beautiful work. While it may be over used by lesser designers, it is a masterpiece when done properly (as it is here).

Hey there, I just love your blog. It’s a daily read almost. =) I love the swashy logo, the texas one, and particularly the egypt one. I had to do a double take on that too, with the pyramids… very clever. Thanks for sharing your finds, twitterpal!
