Hey, it’s wonderful. I have just started a new magazine designing blog. It’s different from your design blog from the context that it need arrangement of typographic layers on paper and a lot of distinguishing ideas.
Anyways, I like your blog. it’s worth reading.

The Rentzilla and Typeface ones are my favorite.

Clever, love the ’shocked’ and ‘threesome’ !
This is a really great post! Thanks for putting it all together.
These are some really awesome logos. Very inspiring. Seeing Steers Restaurant logo just makes me want a steak immediately.
This is a very nice showcase, thank you for taking the effort to put this together! Many of the logos are pretty smartly designed, I think I should check back here every time before I start a logo design project
Love how they used some of the denotations of words in the logos themselves.
Brilliant designs
Nice Logos.
Very Cool Logo-Ideas! Great.
Excellent article. Thanks for sharing.
Cheers
nice idea
Cool! Very clever! Most of all i like Families logo
really, great ideas, good logos
yummy Icon collection some are simple yet attractive
Thanks. Another compilation of great ideas.
Those are absolutely stunning logo’s.
However, most of them are probably case studies of companies that don’t actually exist (I’ve seen lots of those on logopond.com). Many times you can see that the designer had a clever idea and made up a company name that matches that idea. However in reality you have to deal with a dull uninspired company name and have to create something clever that matches that name. Which is really really difficult!
Roel,
You’re right and I agree that it is often much more difficult in a real world scenario. Still, I think they can be good sources of inspiration.
I really, really like these my favorite is push the bottle.
Great collection. I happen to be working on a couple logos right new so this was great timing. I posted a link to this page on my daily design blog:
