Synopsis
Originally published as two separate volumes, Modern Heraldry brings together a collection of trademarks and logo designs inspired by the visual language of heraldry. Featuring shields, crests, seals, stamps, laurels, flags and crowns, the book explores how historic symbols continue to influence contemporary identity design. From direct reinterpretations to more abstract references, these marks demonstrate how designers use heraldic forms to communicate heritage, authenticity, craftsmanship, and trust. Expanded with additional contemporary work and reproduced in black and white, Modern Heraldry highlights the enduring appeal of an ancient system of visual communication and its continued evolution within modern branding.
