LogoArchive Issue 1 was conceived, designed and sent to the printers for quotation within a day. It was inspired by a panel discussion that took place the day before at Somerset House as part of the exhibition Print! Tearing It Up. In the momentum of its design LogoArchive seeks a closer connection between the passion of its author and material object.
LogoArchive is founded on an enthusiasm for a well-crafted symbol; a convivial metaphor, a communicative immediacy and smart use of form language. However, in print, it was never conceived as a document with a singular intention; the simple documentation of symbols, rather a delivery mode in which to build a story and share thoughts.

Following the successful launch of the first three issues, LogoArchive returned with a very special Extra Issue in collaboration with Canada Modern, designed and edited by Blair Thomson, documenting the forms and colour of Canada’s modernist symbols.
