Helvetica — Homage to a Typeface Nike swoosh was a "happy accident" accomplished by a person with no significant design experience.Those aggrego-books are indeed nice for coffee table, but it is also helpful to get books about specific designers: Michael Poynor, Milton Glazer ("I <3 NY", starbucks") and the like. Putting the design process in the context of the designer's choices and methods is often more instructive than seeing millions of "results". Ty for the post.

natural progression for an over mediatized generation is to revert to the sensible pleasures of infancy? toys for grownups are very popular.

Buried, this is a list of Amazon affiliate links.The Los Logos series is okay but you pay to get in it, so the quality in there varies wildly. The rest I'd hardly bother with, seems as though someone searched for "Logo" on Amazon and thought that constituted a blog post.And seriously No Logo there? do they even know what that book is? No books from Pentagram?

Nifty reference to the LOGO educational computer language famous for "turtle" graphics. It's what I thought of first as well when I saw the article title. But you would have been made a more solid impression with a spiral or fractal pattern; a simple four sided box will undoubtedly bear the scorn of designers everywhere. :-)

Because everybody knows the more books about logos you own, the better logo designer you are.

I first thought it was "lego", then I noticed it wasn't. So then I thought it was "Logo", the programming language -- how odd it is that there were so many books about an obsolete language that I hadn't heard about in years! I then noticed it wasn't that either, and at that moment, it dawned on me how much of a nerd I am!
