Interesting Logo Design Article

The design of a logo can open up a debate that could last a fortnight; how does the use of colour affect viewers perceptions? Should all logos be simple with either one or 2 colours or can they be more elaborate? What makes a logo different or memorable?

I found this article which makes for a good read around the subject of logo design:

Bangin' the drum for England....

Did you spot us in the last 2 issues of Media and Marketing magazine "The Drum"? Well, it wasn't hard to miss - the ads were bright green!
In a spot of brand awareness, Threerooms have been targeting marketeers in England to show them some of the things that are important to us, such as Dedication and Passion for our work. These adverts, just teasers really, will be followed up by a run of banner ads in the publication throughout 2008. Keep and eye out for the green.
