The 20 Best Logos from 2009

The logo is one of the most important elements of identity and branding.  Although logos are small, they are equally as difficult to create as web designs or business cards, because they need to be relatively simple, memorable, and professional.

Continuing our roundups from 2009, this post features 20 of the best logos from 2009.  Certainly there are thousands of quality logos created in 2009, but these stand out as creative and clever.

Good stuff :)


All this are impressive logo designs. Thanks for featuring mine.


Excellent logos, my favorite is the “wesinger music”.


They are very nice indeed … hats off to creativity


It’s as if people are locked into a particular style right now, many of these logos look like they’ve been done by the same man/woman/computer. I’m not saying they’re not good, but they’re also somehow lifeless. I’ve seen a lot of art that people have been doing online and it’s all this flowers and vines stuff… for gods sake, when will people “get over it”? I’m hoping that someone somewhere comes up with something new and exciting, their own thing, not what everybody else is doing because if I don’t do that they’ll frown at me. Like Hawkeye in M*A*S*H once said as he banged his plates and stomped on the table “We want something else, we want something else…”

Wolfie!


I thought the same…


Exactly. It’s not just that they all look similar, but also that the only thing that makes them good is their way of illustrating the name of the company.

Juts because a company is called webankor or notestar doesn’t mean they have to use anchors, notes and stars in their logos. It doesn’t give the consumer a representation of what the company is about.


i liked all of them

excellent, thanks very much some of these are really simple but clever :)

I like the “less is more approach”


These logos are very creative especially onewine Blue elephant and antartica


Hmmm. The 20 Best Logos or the 20 Most Simplistic Logos? They are all nice but seem to follow the same stylistic pattern. I definitely prefer variety in any Best Of list.


Genius logos :D


A few ok. Most mediocre. Keep it up.


Yawn, yet another semi-random Top Xyz list.
Besides, Wiesinger Music is not from 2009.


nice choices!!! coffee logo is the best him my opinion :D

Great imagination! Love the way visuals have been used to convey the true message. Wish I could create such an identity for myself :-)


superb!! I liked it!!!


Mister Cutts is the best I think.
Small and simple, but yet tells rewording stories, if you mind the small details.
Funny and smart and surely brings out the message.

I’ve been using a fish in my signature for years. I make it like this <

Lew at sonfishdesign.com <


The logos are excellent. Clean design and great imagination!

The coffee is my favorite…..but, only because I require it to make it through my day!


Very creative logo designs. Horror films is great.


Chido bato, se la rifaron, estan cañones.


the music one and the code fish are amazing reallyyy really :)


Very, very nicely done.


I’m definitely digging the logo’s.

Thanks for the cool tweet!

This is a absolutely beautiful inspiring collection of logos. Thank you!


I lov e the code fish logo. Clear, simple and very functional


Thank you ever so much for featuring my work!
Brilliant selection!


Wow so ‘creative’ and yet so NOT.

Codefish? without ‘enigma’ in it? { ooooh that’s so f*cking code!!!

Bridges ‘PUB and eatery’ has no ‘PUB’ in it

Mistercuts is great, for the 1920’s

Gulp = tongue out? Gulp with your tongue out… I dare you

This is the usual pseudo creativity that passes for ‘art’ it’s “so creative” that idiots like it.

Do me a favor and fucking ‘try’ next time, please.


@ DB – Ok. Well then, let’s see some examples of your art and what passes for creativity in your little world. Please, by all means, educate the rest of us poor little philistines. Perhaps that would be a more constructive use of your time than tearing down the work of others.

Personally, I wish I had half the creative mind that these designers had to come up with these examples. I find them clever and attention grabbing. Well done!

Gee, I guess that makes me an idiot by your definition. Oh well. I think I can live with that. :)


Beautiful, striking, memorable. Thank you for sharing this collection!


Hi WEB Family,

The Logos are lovely, this is to make most of Designers to wake up because We design difficult & complicated LOGO to satisfy people while not necessary.

I mean, simplicity is a key to achieve the goal.

Great logos. You really have great aesthetic and branding skills.


now lets see how many of these brands will survive for more than a year!

I personally enjoyed looking at these logos. I think this good work. I especially liked Mr.Cuts and Horror Films. These are all concise, relative and memorable as well as contrasting and balanced.
