Logo Design Love

Combination marks

Radiodiffusion-Télévision Française

Here’s a strange one from last century, created with string for French broadcaster Radiodiffusion-Télévision Française (RTF) so that, when filmed, it produced a shimmering effect that wasn’t possible with a 2D drawing.

Maybe the shimmering got lost in this old footage.

Not a good logo, but I like that craftsmanship.

Via Colossal.

For a logo with a similar handcrafted feel, the history of the MGM lions.

Jethro Seymour,

That is a very cool concept to have as a logo.

Not many resources to create a good logo in the past. Many old logos weren’t great at all. But the creativity was.
