  it is really good... the downfall of the Los Logos series is the lack of showing the logos in context... well, that and the fact that they've hardly discriminated and put 40 on a spread...

  Los Logos is full of trendy snowboard/music logos, 'Logo' tackles more the corporate world and has been broken down in to catagories (Circles & Dots, letters, leaves, lines etc) it has quite an interesting essay at the front, some nice logos, some recent one I know, some I don't, but a lot that I have in other books like 'Marks of Excellence' and Yasaburo Kuwayama's Brilliant volumes 'Trade Marks & Symbols' (which I strongly recommend!!!)which I'm not that bothered seeing ever again.

  ...and funnily enough there appears to be every logo 'Spin' have ever designed in there, infact the first bloody logo in the book is 'five' that said, it's well designed, always nice to see lots of nice logos and the day where all good ideas escape you, it's a good place to steal, errr, I mean get inspiration. But had I not have been in Waterstones that day, I probably still wouldn't own it (I was bored and had £20 in my pocket)

  • the kuwayama books are great.
    i have 3 of them, they overlap eachother a bit thi but awesome– tank021/3

  ii have it and i think it's very good. as has been mentioned, it's more of a reference book and is more for the corporate world.

  I have it. It's really nice. It's a great reference to various styles of logos. The book is designed nicely as well.
