Packed with 2,000 logos from world-class designers. This book takes all the logos that were in Rockport Publisher's 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. It's 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.
To be honest, I'm more impressed with these smaller, condensed versions of the Logo Lounge series. While their larger counterparts do include more material, (specifically case studies) the quality and amount of that material really doesn't justify the price. (The hard cover versions of these books are $50. I wouldn't pay more than $39 for it.)
These condensed editions show only the logos themselves, which serve as a terrific quick reference for ideas. And at $19.99, they're certainly worth adding to the design library.
