Remember Logorama? The 2009 Academy Award-winning animated short which focused on the use of logos and brands became a point of reference for corporate culture. Ludovic Houplain, studio director and co-director of the film, conducted an extensive year-long research project, collecting over 40,000 symbols and trademarks that represent our world today.

The monumental archive Houplain amassed is the foundation of Logobook, an ultimate logo reference guide, featuring approximately 7,000 specimens organized alphabetically, with information about the designers, year of creation, country, brand, and company.

The book is out later this month from Taschen.
