Walter Landor’s Influence • Young Walter was greatly influenced by the Bauhaus and Werkbund design movements flourishing in Germany during that period. • A visionary who pioneered the use of design and graphic imagery as business and marketing tools, Walter helped create and develop some of today’s best-known brands. • I find that Walters’ design influence is that his work is simple, clean and bold. He has made many influential logos which I admire, possibly because of the logo or just because I like the quality of the products. • http://www.logoblog.org/wordpress/famous-logo-designers-creation/

  4.

  5. Landor’s Logos The WWF logo has an appealing and positive image, which is seen as caring, responsible and credible. Look closely and you’ll see a hidden arrow between the ‘E’ and the ‘x’– a symbol for speed and precision. Landor’s team streamlined and simplified the symbol, resulting in an understated elegance

  6. Gerard Huerta • Gerard Huerta is a designer with one of the most versatile design portfolios.

  9. Gerard Huerta’s Logos The shape of the Pepsi logo is a globe, with two bright colors and a swirl in the middle, separating the two halves of the globe. The fonts are written alongside, giving it a simple structure. The AC/DC logo came about from Gerard because of one of the album titles ‘High Voltage’ , therefore he interpreted the typography using a lightning bolt.
