I love the upside down production logo. I've been using the black and white trick for a bit to see if a design is any good or not, if it works - THEN add colour :-)

Love your blog design by the way :-)

I think a good logo needs to look good as black and white. Especially if it happens to turn up on something that is going to be printed. Thanks for sharing.

I like Black and White together but I'm going to try Black and Red. Those two colours looks awesome together.

I love colors but looking at some of the logos you have displayed I can appreciate its simple yet powerful design. I really love your website's logo - it is very unique and beautiful, and has colors :)

I need a recommendation for a good company/site to design a logo for a professional association. The logo would be used for web site, stationery, stamp etc. Ideally, I do not have big budget and am looking for reasonable cost

These companies have shown that your logo don't have to have many colours to succeed and to be very beautiful.

Less is always more no matter how cliche that sounds. The acronym KISS is very appropriate for the B/W logos: keep it simple stupid. Black and white is just classy (or sophisticated).

Cool post. What's most incredible to me is that you have the simple Nike swoosh which was designed for a mere $25, compared with the new Pepsi logo, which cost a reported $10 million!

I think in current times where most logos are coloured and overloaded with useless stuff b/w logos can get better attantion from the customers :-).

In my opinion Playboy and Dollar Symbol are the best from your list :-).

Funny how so many iconic designs we might not think about but are yet instantly recognizable.

Actually a b&w logo is just smart. It does still cost more to print in color and this can save you a fortune when you need to make every penny count for ads.

I think this just goes to show you how effective black and white logo's and advertising can be.

The real beauty of the black & white logos is that if the logo is recognizable in black & white it is in many colors.

The reverse cannot always be said. Some logo's just require color - but if you start in black and white you don't need anything, but can add color.

That's where the greatness comes from.

I didn't realize the I love new york one has been around so long. There's something about these logos that won't let you forget them. The companies that have been able to do this have been by far more successful because of it.

The combination of black and white is a classic. It incorporates simplicity, which makes it easier for people to remember, and elegance, which draws people to it. By the way, the way you presented the collection is just perfect.

She tell's everything I wanted to say, I think black and white is a symbol of simplicity, and its a tradition. Likewise there are perfect together.

It's amazing the type of ingenuity and expressions people can come up with. I'm sure the marketing of these companies have a great deal to do with our recognition of them but the logo's themselves, even without the companies, just stand out blatantly.
