Chapter 17: Wordmarks

This chapter showcases wordmarks, logos that consist of one or more words. More often than not, the word is the name of the entity that the logo represents. A wordmark can be a simple typographic representation that stands alone, or it can includes an image inline with or replacing one or more letters. The designers featured in this chapter have chosen a defined typographic style, which helps to create an emotion or attitude that can be recognized bythe viewer.
