My Top 10 Logos

Hello readers!

I thought I'd give you an insight into my mind as a logo specialist and tell you my favourite logos of all time!

10. SeeSaw  (here)
This logo utilises one simple shape: a triangle, the triangle is such a marvellous shape if you put the two together on this logo, you'll notice it changes to a play button! But it also gives Seesaw the ability to use the logo as different elements of their website, simple, effective, adaptable. Clever!


9. My Lacy (here)
Another clever logo with a little add on, everything you need to know about the company is in that logo and that's really what you want from a logo, something that's simple, clean, clear and tells you about the company. This logo does exactly that.

8.  Watch (2010) (here)
Although I quite liked the eye logo, this one is simple and clean with a little bit of a modern twist! I also quite like the way there is a hole in the circle where the full stop has broken away!

7. Twitter (2010) (here)
The recent redesign of the Twitter website means there's a new logo, the bird is still there, naturally, but the new logo has been given a once over, the writing is no longer blue and it really fits into the new website.

6. Scuzz (here)
This does exactly what a logo should, it explains what the company (or music channel!) is about in one simple design. It's simple, it looks like metal, it's jagged and "dangerous", all of which applies to that of a metal fan!

5. Crosscountry Trains (2007) (here)
Weird, people don't usually highlight train company logos, but I am! - The Cross Country Trains logo is simple and effective, it sticks out and symbolises a modern train company that anyone can use.

4. GAP (here) or europe users: (here)
I was debating about whether putting this one in, but in light of recent happenings I decided to put it in as the GAP logo that has been around since the company started, shows how a simple design can be better than the most complicated and modern design.

3. Coca cola (here)
The staple of a brilliant brand here, this shows how typography can really become the best logo going, we all know what coca cola is and where to get it, part of its popularity is down to this amazingly simple and memorable brand.

2. Youtube  (here)
Why youtube? Because again, like Scuzz it describes the website in two words and one picture. That is exactly what a logo should do.

1. Google (here)
COLOUR. You very rarely get a logo as colourful as Google's and that's kept as simple as this one is. In my opinion more logos should be colourful.

That's it for now, I'm sure I can think of more to add to this post but my mind has officially blanked!
