LogoArchive and Standards Manual are delighted to launch an Extra Issue dedicated to Federal logo design, which includes some of the States’ most iconic symbols. Designed by Order and featuring texts by Bill Shaffer, Valerie Pettis and Lance Wyman, this Extra Issue tells the little-known story of the Federal Design Improvement Program (FDIP). This program links some of the country’s most recognisable symbols and involved designers such as Rudolph de Harak, Tom Geismar and Raymond Lowey. The booklet is the first to bring these symbols together, and through the words of Bill Shaffer, Lance Wyman and Valerie Pettis, brings a uniquely personal insight into the program and its ambitious outlook for Federal design throughout the 70s in the United States of America.

LogoArchive – Logo Redux by Darren Leader

LogoArchive returns with its fifth collaborative Extra Issue: Logo Redux, dedicated to the fascinating theme of Renaissance printers’ marks. These marks, many drawn from the 15th century, appear somewhat modernist in nature. As such, this Extra Issue functions as a “prequel” to previous LogoArchive issues, and positions printers’ marks as a precursor to the modernist corporate trademarks of the mid-century.
Conceptualised by designer, educator and researcher Darren Leader, working in collaboration with Unlocking The Archive, the University of East Anglia and editor Richard Baird, this Extra Issue intends to revive interest in printers’ marks and the inventive typography of renaissance publishing.
Logo Redux is a Limited Edition run, these can be ordered at logoarchive.shop.
