Very good post – not only because I enjoyed it but also because it gave me food for thought. Your post just sparked an idea for a woodworking project I’ve been contemplating. Thank you so much.

Stumbled it!

I have seen Paul Rand IBM logo just because of strong brading his logo is famous around the world but as far of concept wise Walter Landor peoplepc and Herb Lubalin families logos are the briliant ideas

Hey David,

I think you should put your name in the list as well.

I think logos designed by Herb Lubalin are one of the best logos.

The “Marriage” logo concept is superb.

Hello Derek, Yes, this post is quite old, and I've learnt a fair bit since then. You might be interested in another website of mine, launched quite recently: iconic logo designers. I'd value any feedback you might have.

I have to say I don’t agree with this list. It’s suprising to me how very few good logos some of these guys actually created for being so famous. It’s hard to find a “modern” list of great designers by the way. Maybe you can make one.

Scott, James,

Cheers for dropping by.

Kent,

You’re right. An updated post is long overdue. Defintely one for the ‘to-do’ list.

Excellent list.

Might deserve an updated composite with comment adds.

Anyone interested in Font and custom logotype design might want to search for Lubalin’s out of print, U&LC publication. I miss those issues arriving in the mail in the 70’s.
