Warning : Doyald Young’s story is so inspiring that you may want to play the movie below again and again. It is 39 minutes long, but it’s totally worth. Video at the end of the post. Here are some screens and words from it: One of my heroes says : I do not want to draw a beautiful letter, I want to draw a good letter. Why make another logotype, when there are thousands of fonts out there…
Heroin is a very dangerous and addictive drug. But there was a time when it was prescribed for cough. The manufacturer was Bayer ( the company that invented the Aspirin ) and they were selling it between 1897-1904 in Germany. Later it was banned, of course.

A new coffee table-topper from Chronicle Books, Beer: A Genuine Collection of Cans , peers into the 1,400-plus collection of beer can-enthusiast John Russo and presents nearly 500 of the most interesting finds that represent craft breweries now out…

So this is the limited edition poster of Ibraheem Youssef and the interesting part is that all these logos are illustrating the top Youtube movies for 2010. I guess one can take notes how some things are done or what to avoid. Overall – good job. Which one is your favourite logo here ? He’s writing in his blog :“Paul and myself enjoyed working on this thoroughly throughout December, It started off…
Published in 1947, the Textile Brand Names Dictionary __was devised as a simple resource for those entering the textile business. I’ll copy for you a small paragraph from the Heller’s blog that’s probably representing the essence of the things: This book was possibly the first American primer on how to “select” a successful mark. So, in the spirit of advancing design history it is instructive to…
This is a video from the exhibition in Krakow, Poland by Magdalina Stancheva. Pay attention how they’ve ordered the logos in a grid and then put a light spot on the personal logo of Stefan Kanchev – the “eye”. Rumors are : a book about Stefan Kanchev will be published in the summer of 2011 in English. We’ll keep you informed about the progress :)
