Sam Biddle at Gizmodo has unearthed these vintage logos by designer Alex Leyton (there are more designs on his Behance page).
Not all of these work super well, and I definitely don’t want to live in a world where every company is doing some variation of a twee faux-vintage typographical logo (a lot of startups have already tried).
But some of these are nonetheless very, very effective — and all because of one freely available font, called Lobster 1.4:
The Lobster font.
Kinda makes you want to try redesigning logos around other fonts, too. A typeface can change a lot.
5. OK:
6. Pretty good:
7. Better than decent!
8. Worth changing:
9. Excellent:
10. Perfect.

OMGitsShan 7 months agoWhat a load of rubbish. 1 font with the letters coloured in the style of the original logo. No talent whatsoever. Yawn.. boring!

Johnny Smoke 7 months agoSeriously this latest crop of “designers” are a lazy, arrogant bunch. “I redid this in a different typeface! Genius! My layout looks like a wordpress theme! Fabulous!” Creativity. Inspiration. Effort. Words none of them are familiar with.
