LogoLounge 2 (mini): 2,000 Int

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.
