Product Description

Packed with 2,000 logos from world-class designers.

This book takes all the logos that were in Rockport PublisheréÆs best-seller, Logo Lounge 2, and collects them in one small, neat, pictorial handbook for easy reference.

There are no lengthy case histories, just logos, logos, and more logos. ItéÆs a fast-paced book featuring one to six logos per page to allow designers to easily shop for ideas. Logos are among the most important elements a designer can create, so it is no surprise that they are always looking for new, fresh ideas. LogoLounge 2 delivers just that. Its predecessor showcased the logos along with the stories of how they came to be; this compact version puts the spotlight on the logos alone, making it the perfect handbook to logo design.

Customer Reviews

Disappointing sequel3
Logo Lounge 1 is a must-have in my design library - I refer to it often. Unfortunately Logo Lounge 2 seems lackluster, uninspired, and disappointing. While it contains the same quantity of logos as the first book, the solutions are much less imaginative and the profile section at the beginning is too long and the designers profiled, and their work, are difficult to relate to.

The Culture A.D. review5
The straight to the point advertising and design agency review. For our agency Logo Lounge 2 is a excellent visual reference. It allows us to quickly "thin slice" the visual trends as well as give us in depth case studies. It's a hot source for inspiration that puts your head in the right space for designing logos that speak intelligently and conceptually to help with branding opportunities for clients and their consumers.

Fantastic....5
If you are a designer like myself, you will know just how hard it is to put a strong effective logo together that will stand the test of time well at least 10 years! Logo Lounge is a fantastic book to give creative sparks and ideas for your logos with half the book a selection of the best logos around at the time. The book is easy to read and follow and a must buy for any designer!
