A great article for Graphic Designers, found at LogoLounge.

Periodically, something truly surprising and unexpected pops up. Finding those little treasures are one of the great perks of categorizing 27,000 logos, as LogoLounge and a talented panel of judges just did in preparation for our fourth book. But there's always that natural undercurrent of influence that touches this design and that, a drift of scent, a faint change in air temperature. It's there, but almost not.

This year, however, it seems as though there has been a change in the nature of trends themselves. Instead of a hub-to-spoke relationship in which trends fan out from a central source, prevailing tendencies in logo design now seem to send out long underground runners that poke through the dirt in unrelated, unexpected places, anywhere in the world. It's harder and harder to trace the rhizomatous spread of ideas anymore - which truly is a good thing.

As a professional Graphic Artist, I thought to share some of my professional experience with people interested in Professional Design procedures and guidelines, here in deviantART, through a little workshop. I will be posting news articles in different topics, like “Colors” (hopefully assisted by the feedback from other deviants).

Hope you enjoy
