One of the first things that influences the human mind for decoding a message is the color. From red, to green, to blue every color evokes sensations, emotions and hidden meanings that our brain decodes, providing a particular information to us.
Below a short introduction from AboutLogoDesign.com about the color psychology, to understand better what we want to say.
“Of all the forms of non-verbal communication, color is the most instantaneous method of conveying messages and meanings. Among other uses, color stimulates and works synergistically with all of the senses, symbolizes abstract concepts and thoughts, expresses fantasy or wish fulfillment, recalls another time or place and produces an aesthetic or emotional response.
[...]
Much of the human reaction to color is subliminal and consumers are generally unaware of the pervasive and persuasive effects of color. Psychological effect is instantaneous as color stimulates the senses and exerts its power of suggestion. The power that color wields is seen at every level of communication: in corporate identification and logos, signage, advertising on television, billboards, in print media and packaging, on the computer and at point-of-purchase.”

It’s evident the importance of the color, and of its combinations, when we want to communicate a precise message.
In this collection, I have selected 50 creative logos which use the colors effectively and cleverly. Take a look!

A whole bunch of fascinating logos here, thanks for the list. Every time I see the vividways logo, I’m reminded of the Google Wave logo, despite the fact that I saw the vividways logo (in a blog about its creation) long before Google Wave was announced. I think? Pretty sure.
Also, are you aware that your page says “It’s quite [sic] in here” when there aren’t any comments? Instead of “It’s quiet?” Just thought you might want to fix that typo. You also seem to have a smart single quote going the wrong way (It‘s instead of It&rsquols), but maybe that’s a stylistic choice.
Anyway, great post. Nice site all around.
Fixed! Just an oversight, thanks dear Ben!
Oops—that &rsquol should be ’ (& rsquo ;)
It is always nice to see new designs and to get fresh inspiration.
Australian Art Supplies has a logo I rather like for its simplicity, use of line art and colour and the way it clearly conveys its message.
WOW! These are great, thanks for sharing!
Great showcase!
