Interrobang included in 2010 Logo Lounge Trends Report

An unpublished logo [developed in 2008...] for zero2sixtycreative.com has been included in the 2010 Logo Lounge Trend Report . The logo is a callout for the Spirogram trend they've noted, and is described by Bill Gardner as follows:

Spirogram: A mark crafted of many repetitive very thin lines, but not necessarily like the rosettes created by a Spirograph. The volume of lines helps create the mass of the logo.

The logo was selected from the 35,000 plus logos that have been uploaded to Logo Lounge in the past 18 months. And were color does play a large part in the detail and personality of this identity, it was presented to the client in black and white as well. [Read some of the comments and you'll see why we mention this.]

Interrobang has completed the design of 'The Coven', a new promotional booklet/postcard set designed for Boston, MA photographer Bob Packert.
