With the opportunity of Christmas, I compiled several nice reading lists concerning various aspects of design. Mostly with books I have read and found interesting or i have marked to get in the near future. And I think that they have something to offer whether you are a junior designer or a grizzled award winning designer. Previous time we have seen the Top 10 Layout Design Books.
For today we have a Top 10 list with books on logo design. Again you can vote for the books you are familiar with and check out those you are not. You can even add your own suggestions to the list, and eventually it will expand and become even more useful for everyone.
A logo is a graphic mark or emblem commonly used by commercial enterprises, organizations and even individuals to aid and promote instant public recognition. Logos are either purely graphic (symbols/icons) or are composed of the name of the organization (a logotype or wordmark). The following books are mostly aimed for graphic designers of all levels who want to improve their logo design skills.
