Patch:Work Logo Archive
Last updated: 5 October 2026
The Patch:Work Logo Archive is a postcard-sized book of 294 logos, each donated by one of 247 studios and designers from their own back catalogue. Harrison Marshall edited and designed it, and Offcuts published it in an edition of 400 as the first volume of a series. It is £30 at Counter-Print, which had copies in stock on 5 October 2026. The publisher's own shop has sold out.
A patchwork quilt of logos
Patchwork quilts are made at gatherings. Everybody brings fabric left over from something else, and the group stitches the scraps into one quilt. Offcuts, the UK publisher and bookshop, took that idea and applied it to graphic design.
Nobody picked the contents from a shortlist. Each designer handed over marks from their own work, and the book is what those donations added up to. So large studios such as Grafik and Mother Design sit next to one-person practices, in no particular order of importance.
The book as an object
It measures 105 x 148mm, which is A6, the size of a postcard. The cover is 2mm grey board with the title in gold foil and nothing else on it. Inside are 320 pages of cream Munken Pure Rough paper, sewn in sections.
The spine is left open, so you can see the stitching. It also means the book lies flat when you open it, which helps with a book you flick through rather than read cover to cover. At that size, most logos get a page to themselves.

Why buy it now
Four hundred copies is a small run, and Offcuts has already sold out. Counter-Print is where the remaining UK stock sits, and there is no reprint announced. If you want the first volume, buy it while a stockist still has it.
Who it suits
- Graphic designers: 294 working logos from 2026, from studios of every size.
- Students: a pocket-sized reference to keep on the desk.
- Book collectors: a limited-run design book with an open-spine binding.
For a different kind of design book, Margaret Calvert: Woman at Work tells one designer's story, and Projecting British Design covers a national one. Both follow a single history from start to finish, while this book is a collection with no narrative at all.
The limits
There is no commentary. The logos come without essays or case studies, so you get the marks but not the stories behind them.
At A6, detailed logos print small. If you want to study line weights closely, a larger-format logo book will serve you better.
It is not on Amazon UK, so Counter-Print is the place to buy it.
Where to buy it in the UK
Counter-Print, the London design bookshop, sells it for £30. Offcuts lists the full specification and every contributor on its Patch:Work Logo Archive page, though its own stock has gone.
