The Logo Issue
Our top 20 logos, the cult of Crouwel, Design Indaba
Feature
Logos: where next?Affection and respect build over time, so it is inevitable that our Top 20 should consist mostly of logos that were created many years, if not decades ago. While the list stands as a fantastic tribute to the designer's art, we also have to recognise that it represents a certain moment in time when logos had, by themselves, enormous power and importance. Perhaps that moment has passed.
