D’innombrables marques internationales, notamment Rolex, BMW, Louis Vuitton et les New York Yankees, utilisent encore des logos qui ont été créés il y a plus de 100 ans. Pourtant jamais une monographie n’avait été consacrée aux origines de la conception de logos. Dans la seconde moitié du 19e siècle, la marque déposée a remplacé les symboles traditionnels de type blason familial pour promouvoir et identifier les entreprises et leurs produits. Les premiers essais furent encore figuratifs, mais progressivement le logo se développa pour devenir un signe abstrait qui fait aujourd’hui partie de notre paysage quotidien.
L’auteur Jens Müller, surnommé le « détective du logo » par le magazine Wired, a examiné les registres de depots de marques anciens, les archives des multinationales et les premières publications dédiées au design pour exhumer plus de 6.000 logos conçus entre 1870 et 1940. Ce recueil sans égal retrace l’évolution des marques déposées modernes et dévoile des créations oubliées ainsi que les premières versions de célèbres logos. Le catalogue est structuré selon quatre catégories de design: « figuratif », « forme », « effet » et « typographique ». Chaque chapitre est ensuite méthodiquement subdivisé en fonction des éléments fondamentaux du design comme le cercle, la ligne, les chevauchements et les contours, afin de porter un regard nouveau sur des principes du design qui sont encore pertinents aujourd’hui.
Densément illustré, ce livre comprend une introduction de Jens Müller sur l’histoire de la marque déposée ainsi qu’une reproduction de la première analyse complète des logos commerciaux modernes: le célèbre essai illustré du pionnier du design F.H. Ehmcke (1878–1965), « Wahrzeichen – Warenzeichen » (Symboles – marques déposées, 1921). Il contient aussi dix études de cas sur de célèbres marques, dont 3M, NBC, Shell et Olivetti, et de nombreuses images rares qui illustrent l’évolution, tantôt erratique, tantôt cohérente, de la création de logos internationale et la naissance de l’identité de marque. Logo Beginnings n’est pas seulement un ouvrage de référence et une inspiration en termes de graphisme; c’est aussi une lecture passionnante pour ceux qui s’intéressent à l’histoire sociale, culturelle et entrepreneuriale et à l’impact fascinant des logos. C’est aussi le pendant parfait du classique de TASCHEN Logo Modernism.

Countless global brands, including General Electric, Ford, Louis Vuitton, and the New York Yankees, still use logos that were designed over 100 years ago. Yet there has never been a monograph devoted to the origins of logo design. In the second half of the 19th century, the trademark replaced traditional symbols such as the family coat of arms as a promotional and identifying symbol for companies. At first, the designs were often still figurative; only gradually did they develop into the abstract marks that have become fixtures in everyday life today.
Author Jens Müller, described as the “logo detective” by Wired magazine, examined historical trademark registers, international corporate archives, and early design publications to unearth more than 6,000 logos from 1870 to 1940. This unparalleled collection traces the development of modern trademarks and sheds light on forgotten designs and early versions of famous logos. The catalog is divided into four design categories: “Figurative,” “Form,” “Effect,” and “Typographical.” Each chapter is then systematically subdivided according to basic elements of design such as circle, line, overlap, and outline, thus offering a new perspective on design principles that are still relevant today.
Along with an extensive picture section, the book comprises an introduction by Jens Müller on the history of the trademark as well as a reproduction of the first comprehensive examination of modern corporate logos: the influential design pioneer F.H. Ehmcke’s (1878–1965) illustrated essay “Wahrzeichen† Â?Warenzeichen” (Symbols† Â?trademarks) from 1921. Also included are ten case studies of famous trademarks, including those of 3M, NBC, Shell, and Olivetti, and numerous rare images illustrating the† Â?at times varied, at times consistent† Â?developments in international logo design and the birth of the corporate identity. Logo Beginnings is not only a fundamental and inspiring graphic design manual but also an excellent read for anyone interested in social, cultural, and corporate history and the fascinating impact of trademarks. It is also the perfect complement to the TASCHEN classic Logo Modernism.
