2010 logo design trend

1. Optimism


2. Warping, faceting, and animation


3. Circles upon circles upon circles, especially nested inside each other and of diminishing sizes; building objects from circles.


4. "Greeness" is still pervasive, but it no longer apparently has to be expressed by the color green: Any fresh palette will do.


5. Surface effects; designers have begun to look at the actual surface of the shapes as an entirely new canvas that can be addressed in myriad ways.

Here are some categories that sum up the graphic styles:

• Cubist
• Spores
• Ghosts
• Tendril
• Shift
• Parts
• Pixel
• Hexahedron
• Dust
• Peepshow
• Festoon
• Stain
• Burst
• Wallpaper
• Box-up
