Logo 2000 (1998)

Foundation Center Logo (see logo design section)
Webmarks Logo (see logo design section)

The book Logo 2000 showcases logos designed from 1970 onwards. To be published in 1999 in book form, it's claimed to be the largest logo book ever published in the US.

The Foundation Center is a clearinghouse of information for grantmakers and grantseekers. The logo was intended to abstractly show their initials; its open structure represents information freely flowing into and out of the institution.

Webmarks is a trademark of a small company whose goal is to sell advertising on postcards that people can retain to help them find favorite web sites. The logo was designed to start as a simple rectangle which animates to form the letter 'W'.

See our logo section for a detailed description of our work in this area.
