Robot Logos!

Check out this collection of cool robot logos! All were obtained via logopond.

I like the combination of the hand-drawn typeface, sans serif font and the robot sketch. Does anyone else read this as "First One"?

Clueless robot...?...?...?

Mad robot!!! This logo has a retro feel, and it reminds me of Nick at Night.

I like this one a lot...especially the corresponding dots.

This one is really cute. I like how the investment arrow is subtle and not in your face.

This one is my favorite! I love the robo-cow, the colors, and the typography!!!

Is the red background square tilted, or is that just an optical illusion? Either way, it makes me look twice.

I probably would've used the second "o" for the body of the robot, it would make the word easier to read.

Thumbs up! This one is great! I love it when designers omit spaces in words, but also make it easier to read.

Ode to Coffee!

How do I love thee? Let me count the ways...

Even though hot, frothy coffee helps to hone my concentration, letting me work tirelessly for hours on end, I don't want to talk about the actual drink...I'd rather talk about coffee logos!

Here are some I love:

This could've been really cheesy, but it was done in a chic way with a subtle gradient, nice!

I don't know if coffee is necessarily healthy (especially when I add five sugar packets, vanilla flavoring, and frothed milk...mmmmm) but I love this logo, and it makes me believe that it could be healthy!

This one is just too damn cute! Making the handles into noses was a great idea! I didn't see the profiles right away...btw, I love when logos make you take a double-take.

You can't talk about coffee logos without mentioning this one! Some people snidely call it a "symbol of corporate America", but I think it is a beautifully designed one. You can recognize it from a mile away! Wait, maybe not that far...30 feet?


Ok, now for some unfortunate ones (a.k.a. UGLY!):

I can see where they were going with this one...but it is just too blocky and technical-looking. The "b" fitting into the "c" should've been cool, but it was poorly executed.

This one is a nice logo...for a fast food restaurant. It just doesn't give me the impression of fancy coffee drinks in a hip setting, more like hamburgers and onion rings, which do NOT mix well with a vanilla latte!

We all remember when Starbucks decided to shake things up and brought back this 15th century drawing in their logo...it just looks sad, and frankly doesn't make me want to drink coffee.
