Logo design work honored in LogoLounge 9

So honored to be included again in the latest volume of Rockport Publishing's LogoLounge 9 by Bill Gardner and Anne Hellman. This will be my 90th logo featured in 11 LogoLounge series books. A little bit about this edition:

LogoLounge vol. 9 presents the 2,000 best logo designs as judged by a select group of identity designers and branding experts. Logos are organized into 20 visual categories for easy reference. Within each section, case studies allow a closer look at designs from diverse firms such as Hornall Anderson, Lippincott, Tether, Von Glitschka Studios, OCD and more. Each story details the logo design journey, from concept to finish. LogoLounge vol. 9 is the definitive logo resource for graphic designers, brand managers and start-ups looking for ideas and inspiration.

Featured designer: Leighton Hubbell on the LogoLounge blog.

I am pleased to announce I've been chosen as Featured Designer on the LogoLounge blog this month. It's quite an honor considering how many wonderful and talented designers are contributing to the LogoLounge series of design books all the time. You can catch my interview with Dorothy Ayon on the blog.

Logo design work to appear in LogoLounge 8.

I've been participating in the LogoLounge series by Bill Gardner and Catherine Fishel since submitting work to LogoLounge 2 way back in 2003. It's hard to believe it's been that long. And even though it's been ten years for me (and now the tenth volume that my work appears), it's still exciting when you get word that you've got work in the next book. I am honored to share the latest work here that will be appearing in the upcoming LogoLounge 8, scheduled to publish later this year. LogoLounge from Rockport Publishers is one of the premier design book series that celebrate and showcase the best in logo design throughout the world. There are only 2,000 logos selected for each book out of the now over 200,000 in their database. Some of the best logo work from the top designers and design firms in the business.

Logo work chosen for LogoLounge Master Library, Vol. 4.

I am very pleased to announce that three of my logo designs will be included in the upcoming LogoLounge Master Library Vol. 4, Typography and Enclosures – which is now available as of February 2012.

This is the latest installment of the celebrated logo design series by authors Catharine Fishel and Bill Gardner.

To date, their website, LogoLounge.com is one of the premier resources for logo design inspiration with over 140,000 searchable logos. The LogoLounge books are certainly one of the more popular series on graphic design that Rockport Publishers produces. To date, these represent more than 70 logos chosen over the 10 published LogoLounge volumes. Needless to say, I am honored to be a part of it.

Logo work honored in upcoming LogoLounge 6.

This will be my seventh LogoLounge volume that my work has appeared with nearly 70 honored logos.

As quoted by the LogoLounge staff, 

This was an incredibly competitive judging session with over 34,000 logos entered for consideration. The work has been chosen for the new book by an international panel of judges. This years panel included, Bart Crosby of Crosby Associates, Hans Hulsbosch of Hulsbosch, Jeannie Servaas of Saffron Brand Consultants Inc., Jessica Hische of Jessica Hische, Marius Ursache of Grapefruit, Sherwin Schwartzrock of Schwartzrock Graphic Arts, Silvio Giorgi of Latinbrand, and Tessa Westermeyer of Landor.

Recognized work in the new LogoLounge Masters Library.

Just received word that a number of my logo designs will be included in the new LogoLounge Masters Library Volume 2 coming out some time next year.

I am very excited about the recognition of such a prestigious collection of logo work from around the world. There will be approximately 24 pieces appearing in the volume entitled, Animals & Mythology. The book will be available from Rockport Publishers. These are the winning entries.

New logo work for the LogoLounge Masters Library.

Just received the word this week about my logo work being included in the upcoming LogoLounge Masters Library series. The new series of design books will be published by Rockport Publishers.Unlike the original series, each book in the Masters Library series will focus on a very specific logo design category, such as: Initials & Crests, Typography, People, Animals, Birds and Mythology, Shapes and Symbols, Nature and Food and Arts and Culture (including transportation, sports and architecture). These selections will appear in the first edition, Initials & Crests under my other name, Hubbell Design Works.

Look for it in bookstores or at the LogoLounge.com website in the next year.

Got some work in LogoLounge 4.

Some of you logo design fans have probably already scoped out the new Logo Lounge 4 (Rockport Publishers). This is the latest in the Logo Lounge series of design books—and I might add, every one of them is excellent. The level of work is superior and the logo design is nothing short of inspirational.

So, of course finding out that I had a handful of pieces selected for the latest edition was definitely a shot in the arm and a good reason for taking a two hour lunch!

Anyway, here are the selected works. Hope you like them. By the way, I have a collection of other logos that were in the previous editions: LogoLounge 2 and LogoLounge 3. They are listed under my other identity, Hubbell Design Works. You can also check out their website at: www.logolounge.com
