The top 15 out of a 43-quip week.
A = Authors | C = Community
A / No. 12 / Armin / The finalists for Madrid 2016’s Olymbic Bid logo.
A / No. 11 / Armin / Pretty amazing, and colorful, poster by French designer Fanette Mellier.
A / No. 17 / John Feldhouse / The always amazing Hoefler & Frere-Jones have a new site.
A / No. 14 / Armin / Can the internet handle another design blog? If it’s as cool, and clever, as Khoi Vinh’s and Liz Danzico’s A Brief Message, yes. Best wishes for a succesful venture.
A / No. 26 / Armin / Philadelphia’s worst logo found. Gets makeover. [Via HOW]
A / No. 10 / Armin / It must be Make Cool Type Month. A hard-to-read one this time, “I re-invented the alphabet using only triangles, cirlces, and squares/rectangles.”
A / No. 22 / Armin / This may be old information, but it ranks up there in the I Would Have Never Guessed It Department: The 100 oldest domain names. 1985!
A / No. 9 / Armin / What’s in a fancy coffee drink? A helpful chart. [Via Dark Roasted Blend]
C / No. 6 / Josh Berta / John K takes a look at vintage kids’ halloween costumes. Weird and funny. This year I’m going as Soupy Sales!
A / No. 15 / Randy J. Hunt / Winners from the 2007 ReBrand awards are filling the gallery at ReBrand.com. September 26th marks the deadline for the 2008 branding award that evaluates the full case-study and transformation of a brand, not just the final product. Go figure!
A / No. 4 / Armin / The top 50 designers, according to The Guardian.
A / No. 8 / Armin / Periodic table of visualization methods. (Roll over stuff to see stuff). [Via A Word in Your Ear]
A / No. 19 / Bryony / Out of 9,000, Yahoo chooses crooked houses for its grand marketing oriented price.
C / No. 2 / Jhayne/ Shelf shelf.
A / No. 16 / Armin / Back to school? Heck, back to work? Core77 gets you riled for this season with a healthy serving of tips.

Are the logo options for Madrid 2016 really by professional designers? Did we learn nothing from the London 2012 blunder?
Maybe I'm just more drawn to "swiss-style" design and can't get past the children's handwriting and cut-paper aesthetic.
