Typography has traditionally gone hand in hand with logo marks since the days of the dinosaurs. We know this because of that movie where they recreate dinosaurs on that island and then they get loose and go crazy and everyone dies. We’re sure that movie was called “The Dinosaurs That Got Loose and Ate Everyone” and you’ll never convince us otherwise.
The point is, typography can communicate things which marks themselves sometimes cannot. Either through manipulation of characters or double meanings of character shapes, the text of a logo might say something in addition to the meaning of the name. Or the style of font used might set the tone for the intended message. Often times, clever or attractive typography can stand alone as the logo mark.
We have compiled 50 of our most favoritest ever (forever) logo designs showcasing exemplary typography. Enjoy!

[...] 50 Typography Logos With Letters (They’re Good, Too) (brandstack). La tipografía tradicionalmente ha ido de la mano con el logotipo de marcas. En algunas ocasiones la tipografía puede comunicar ciertos aspectos que una marca a sí mismos a veces no pueden. Ya sea a través de la manipulación de caracteres o de doble sentido de las formas de caracteres, el texto en un logotipo podría decir algo además del significado del nombre. O el estilo de fuente utilizado podría establecer el tono para el mensaje deseado. Muchas veces, una inteligente o atractiva tipografía puede estar sola como marca del logotipo. [...]
