Recently I’ve been contacted by a few companies to create an identity for their business, the normal process was set in motion, email, questionnaire, NDA etc., you know the deal. In my questionnaire I always ask if the client wants a symbol to represent their business.

Personally I find this the most difficult part of the Logo Design Process given the client lives in another country and the only way you can communicate is by skype, email or messenger.

So that’s why I’ve started to look for some inspiration and resources with the intention of improving my techniques and to share the findings with my readers. Let’s begin with some cool and very helpful books, i did not buy them all but a few are already in my possession.
