Chris focused on an article that has recently been republished on AllGraphicDesign.com, in which I discuss the design of the Alliance Business Insurance logo and offer some advice on considering your client's industry when designing for them. Really, it's one of those things you shouldn't have to tell people, but you do. Mostly I'm proud to be included as a "Logo Design Master" alongside David Airey , a fellow designer and logo design pundit, and Jeff Fisher of Jeff Fisher LogoMotives, a designer and author that I admire greatly (and coincidentally, probably one of the most published solo designers in America today). jon 2008-11-04T17:59:38Z New Client: Joshua Expeditions http://blog.ohtwentyone.com/blog/newClient_joshuaExpeditions Joshua Expeditions has engaged ohTwentyone to design their 2009 Catalog. We're really looking forward to helping Joshua Expeditions reach out to their customers and promote their service-based adventure trips more effectively. jon 2008-09-29T20:00:38Z Awards: Logo Lounge 5 http://blog.ohtwentyone.com/blog/logoLounge5 We're really pleased to announce that two of the logos from our portfolio will be included in Logo Lounge 5! Logo Lounge is a website community for logo designers, and also a series of publications cataloging the best logo designs in the world. The collection is juried by an international panel of respected designers, and fewer than 10% of the logos entered are included (approximately 6% this year). Each book contains 2000 logos, and having two included in this year's book is a tremendous honor. With no further ado, here are the award winning entries: http://ohtwentyone.com/pages/portfolio/Logos/artofOpera.html http://ohtwentyone.com/pages/portfolio/Logos/tidyToms.html jon 2008-09-12T20:01:15Z New Client: Longhorn Fabrication http://blog.ohtwentyone.com/blog/newClient_longhornFabrication Longhorn Fabrication & Design as selected ohTwentyone to design and develop their new logo, stationery package and website.

Well, I am working on a new logo right now for a new client, and I started looking through LogoPond for a little inspiration, and happened to see that they've changed the way all those little accolades are displayed on the front page of the site again, and added a few categories...and one of my logos is in the top of TWO categories. The KeepOpen.com logo is the fifth most "floated" logo on LogoPond (floating is like voting for logos you think are good. You can float or sink a logo. The logos are then ranked by a numerical value based on their net score). KeepOpen.com's logo is also the Fourth most "favorited" logo on the site as well, which means that a bunch of people have picked KeepOpen.com as their favorite logo. jon 2008-05-02T16:11:38Z
