Wordmark Logo Examples

I think this example is very effective.  I like the font choice and the fact that only a slight change in the P was enough to evoke the idea of a pin or thumbtack.

I don't know what this product or company is but I like the displaced Q.  The progressive size of the letters adds to the feeling of a tight space. 

I like the simplicity of this logo.  The upside down As don't seem to make the word any more difficult to read, which I wouldn't have expected.

From My Bookshelf

This is a very simple composition.  I like the choice of a narrow font with a strong vertical direction.  It echos the vertical lines in the man's arm, face and shirt and the vertical direction of the woman.
 

Another very simple image.  I like the way the varied colors, sizes and direction of the letters gives them an animated feel so they seem to be interacting with the characters.

I love bacon but...

this is kind of disgusting.  I don't think I will ever be using this font.  But I appreciate the creativity involved!

Folding Laundry

Apparently, typography is everywhere!  As I was folding laundry I ran across several good examples.  Here are a couple of my favorites:

I like the way this logo uses negative space to create the letter shapes.  
I assume the letters in this design are hand-drawn.  I think it's very effective.
