Logo Lounge, one of my favourite logo design inspiration galleries, posts the latest logo design trends each year, based from submissions to their gallery. This morning, the founder Bill Gardner, released the the 2010 Logo Design Report based on the analysis of the latest 35000+ submissions.
Below is a quick snapshot of the 2010 logo design trends:
On this topic of trends, one should not follow trends for the sake of following them. As Bill Gardner points out:
Every year, it’s worth noting that this is a report on trends, not a recipe book of styles. It is also not a finite list: There are other valid trends out there that are not mentioned here.
The report should serve you as an ongoing view of where logo design is headed. The word “trends” in itself can have a very negative cast, but in truth, trends aren’t bad. They reveal our growth. It’s our take on them that allows us to move even further forward.
Do these identity / branding trends effect you or your process? Do you agree with these suggestions? Have you noticed any other trends?’

Awesome logo-stuff. I really like the “head-logo” at the middle of your snapshot.
Pretty good post. I just came by your blog and wanted to say that I’ve really enjoyed reading your blog posts. In any case I’ll be subscribing to your feed and I hope you write again soon!
i was just wondering what the logo for the 5th one in on the top line is for ?
thank you
Awesome looking logos for this year so far. I’m looking forward to some great work from the big names like yourself. Hopefully I can put out some quality work as well. After all, it’s still very early in the year.

Great pointer, very inspiring and colourful logos
Curious about the logo for “SHTT”–what do they do? Not surprisingly, typing that into Google doesn’t come up with anything helpful.
Addendum: found it on Logo Lounge: Swiss Heat Transfer Technology. Possibly not the smartest choice using the initials…

gr8 stuff, amazing collection
That Silent Army Apparel logo is so rad. Surprisingly, I just used a color transparency effect on a logo for one of my clients.
It’s interesting to see people starting to push the boundaries of logo design. I’m sure some logo design purists do not like all the gradients, blurs, and distortions though.
Very nice logos, do they work with 3D glasses?
Thanks for sharing! Jacob.
Those logo trend tips really come in handy!!

Thanks for sharing Jacob,
The issue i have is, when we design a logo to a trend which is famous on that time period, will that logo last for ever? Any idea???

They are small and cool. Good collection.
i like very much the cubic/rainbow colored logos, we are currently searching for a logo re-design and this helped much!
Fantástica colección de logos, gracias / They are small and cool. Good collection.
I usually keep a Logo Lounge book close by for inspiration and it’s good to see what they thought the latest trends of 2010 were. I’ve noticed over the last few years a change in logo design styles.
Congrats on getting selected for Logo Lounge Vol. 6 🙂
It’s great to see good logo’s. We at Faitheo came up with our logo and feel it is great and gets the point across. You should check out our site not only to see the logo but if you are a Christian you will love our blog posts and our future plans. Hope to see you inside. God bless.

Thanks for this collection. Whilst I agree that current trends are important, for most organisations it’s more important to have a logo that is “timeless”, otherwise it can quickly look dated.
Good job!! 🙂
