I meant to write this ages ago when I finished the book, but better late than never.
Logo Design Love
As someone who never had the chance to study design, this book exceeded my expectations. I’m never quite sure what I’m getting when I buy a book about design. Some of them turn out to be just full of images to gain inspiration from, which wasn’t what I was after. This is anything but.
Detailed and knowledgeable, one thing I really love about this book is that David doesn’t make me feel stupid for not knowing about negative space or the correct way to price for clients.
He writes as though he’s a good friend or a great teacher that understands that you are there to learn and just want to understand and enjoy great design.
This book inspired me to create my logo and the branding for my business.
I wanted something simple yet effective and this book helped me to realise that that was more than ok.
I purchased it for the kindle which was great for reading it from cover to cover but I’m hoping to also buy a paperback version to use as a reference in the future.
I would recommend it for anyone interested in learning this sort of thing. It’s something that I will return to over and over again.

Hi Dannielle, thanks very much for reading my book and sharing your thoughts. It always makes me happy when I can see the book content was of use.
Thank you David for writing it! and thanks for taking the time to leave a response on my blog. It’s very much appreciated!
My pleasure. Quick tip for your blog: the ‘subscribe to comments’ WordPress plugin is one of the best out there. Helps build chat on your posts. Good luck.
I loved the book. I thought it gave a really concise and highly realistic view of logo design for smaller businesses. Absolutely a keeper.
Hey, I totally agree with you. It is not a manual, it is not just another image album of great logo designs. And the most important thing is that is the exact book you need to get started on your work. By the way that is how I put my WordPress blog… and made my logo a little more special.
Take care and good luck.
