Type Theory is a "journal of contemporary typography"
by Ty Wilkins. You may think this is just another type blog, but after
only being on the scene since January of this year Type Theory is
quickly becoming an indispensable reference. Ty currently works as
a graphic designer for Gardner Design and is also involved in the
behind the scenes work on LogoLounge. I discovered his site via the
images below posted to ffffound.
The following logos are the work of Brian Miller. As Ty said in his
article, "When given a long string of words, he can transform
them into a sophisticated typographic concoction. As the Vice President
and Senior Art Director of Gardner Design, Brian has many opportunities
to apply his type prowess to the art of logo design. In situations
where many designers would be inclined to complain of copy overload,
Brian excels at elegantly composing lengthy phrases and titles.
"Each logo is an example of either a 'typographic lock-up' or
'typographic enclosure.' Several logos fall under both categories.
All logos seen were presented to the client. Some were selected as
the final logo and others have been waiting in the Gardner Design
archives until now."
Stunning! |
