Logo design work created (whilst employed at a Leeds studio) for a regional cleaning company Ecclestone & Miller. The colours I opted to use are complementary, providing a strong, vibrant contrast throughout the brand, and all four logos featured a prominent ampersand. The one featured here is by far my favourite of the set.
It’s possible that I’ll blog about ampersands in the future, as I find them such a fascinating letter form, and only discovered today that the ‘&’ is often regarded as the 27th letter of the alphabet.

Oh wow, that looks so nifty. 😀 And I’d never really considered that about the “&”, but yeah, it is used quite a bit. I like it because it’s so loopy and pretty. ^^
Posted by Lauren | August 23, 2009, 5:19 pmThank you Lauren! Like I said above, I’ll undoubtedly be blogging solely about ampersands in the future, so keep your eyes peeled 😉
Posted by Kate Powell | August 23, 2009, 7:28 pmI really like that. That ampersand is totally nifty. I saw a post somewhere about really neat fonts that had really cool ampersands but I can’t find it now. You probably have tons already though.
Posted by Caity | August 23, 2009, 9:38 pmYeah I’ve found a similar one with examples of ampersands, and links to download the fonts (some free, some paid for), I’m probably going to blog my favourites as there are some stunning ones — though I can’t justify buying fonts right now! =(
