Ultimate Typographic Logos Inspiration
Lately I've been working in a new identity for a local company, and their only request is that it has to be a only type logo. Then I started researching some typographic logos at Logopond, and it was a great step in my concept development.
During this process, I've noticed that for me, working with a typographic logo is much more challenging than working with with the traditional ones, type + image. Type logos tend to demand a much better concept, since it gotta deliver the right message with less elements.
Also, this kind of logotype gives us a nice opportunity to work with type, which is always a good exercise. But I would like to know from you, what do you think about type logos. Do you prefer traditional over type? Which typographic logos do you enjoy the most? And of course, if I've missed any, please drop us a comment! We'd really appreciate it! Hope you like my "brief" selection.

Really, really nice ty!!
Great logo designs! Lovely inspiration.
Some golden oldies in here! The bison one is probably very old.
I think the crown logo is the best. It has strong spacing, nice margins and readability without sacrificing the high-standard iconography of a typical logo.
With logos I believe the simpler types are the best!
This is simply amazing! So many different logos, in so many different colors and typographies - yet I can't figure out how to create my own logo! Frustrating..
Great collection!
I love these. Super inspiring!
This is a really great post, I've been wanting to design a type only logo for my site. It's always harder to design for ourselves... This might just inspire me to do it sooner rather than later

Wow man excelent recopilation!, love the zoodos!
I like the most the ZIP logo, and the TALKMORE". I preffer the typographic logo, but either way, a good logo is a good logo, and it's a preety genius thing...
this is the amazing post .... all logos are amazing...
Some of those might look nicwe but they are very hard to read.
Bison logo ownz
wauw! so inspirational! makes me wanna make some logo's!
The 'upside down' logo is a particularly excellent use of typography in logo design.
I think 'upside down' and 'crown' do the best job of transforming a very traditional font into an iconic and memorable logo without graphic assistance. lots of nice ones here
I'm completely sick of seeing logos that rely entirely on colour, gradients and drop shadows. These are not good logos - they are good images. A logo needs to look great at any size, be memorable, and be able to be reproduced in any format. I won't remember 90% of these ten minutes from now, and I've already forgotten probably half of them.
There are some great ones in here however - Bison is genius and every time I see it makes me smile.
great roundup
Excellent post! I was browsing throught Logopond today too, looking for inspiration to design a brand for a health program my company is selling and this post was "the light at the end of the tunnel".
Hope we make such well designed logos as those featured here!
Cream is my all time fave!
Undertone I don't think these logos or images as you say, are meant to be presented as final prepared logo. If you think of it based upon merely conceptual or inspirational of what "a good logo could be" then I think they are great! These examples presented to us is more so based upon establishing a brand or identity... trying to define an idea, a color and mindblowing typography.

Lots of good typographic solutions. The Zip and the Bison one really drew my attention right away. Really fun stuff.
Some of them (hire assistance) isn't even good, much less inspiring, but some people go for that... even though I am not sure why.
that is simple awesome, but would be nice if it was presented a little better, a long list is kinda annoying
but great work!
Upside Down and Cream are my favourites.
There are some really nice and creative logo's in this list.
I think the talkmore logo is one of the best.
My favourites from these:
1) ZIP
2) talkmore
3) upside down
also liked: PRECISION NETWORKING, BISON, bubblegum
Quite a lot of nice nice logos btw.
I have to side with simplicity on this one, despite all being considered "final" or not. From my experience, a logo (type, or type+graphic) is successful when it can be read and understood at any size, color, or in any application.
My top from this group: talkmore, crown, and million
I guess that answers the initial question for me: type-only logos are what I find most attractive.
«Bison» and «talkmore» are my favorites
they are so creative!
Noice!
