Logo Modernism is a brilliant catalog of corporate trademarks from 1940-1980 that testify to the enduring values of modernist design. Courtesy of Taschen Logo Modernism, a new Taschen book out next month by German graphic designer Jens Müller, is a brilliant catalog of 6,000 trademarks from 1940–1980 that reflect how modernist design ideals helped shape the corporate identities of everything from media organizations to airlines. Grouped thematically into sections on geometric, typographic, and effects-driven trademark designs, the book provides inspiration for graphic designers and eye candy for anyone interested in a satisfying illustration of the ways in which individual designers might use a circle, a series of dots, or a letter of the alphabet to create a graphic representation of a company’s identity. This fantastic collection of handsome logos testifies to the enduring power of clean, crisp, universally symbolic design language that is a far cry from the often trendy, cheesy, puffed-up corporate branding that exists today.
