Since the 1980s, David E. Carter had produced the best-selling American Corporate Identity annual, showing the best new work in corporate identity design from the United States. Now, Carter has edited an international counterpart: Global Corporate Identity. The book has all the elements that have made American Corporate Identity such a popular reference book, with seven categories of corporate design: logos, letterheads, package design, complete identity programs, corporate identity manuals, signage & environmental graphics, and corporate brochures. Like American Corporate Identity, Global Corporate Identity is printed in full color and hardcover. The primary difference in the two books is in content: While American Corporate Identity includes only firms from the USA, Global Corporate Identity is predominantly filled with work from outside the United States. In all, about 70% of the pieces shown in this book are from places outside the USA. The American entries are, for the most part, representative of firms who do business outside the United States. The result is a comprehensive overview of the current corporate identity state of the art for those firms marketing on a multinational basis. Every designer who wants to keep up with the latest trends in international corporate identity will find this a must-have reference.

Brands – corporate, products, service – today are collectively defined by their customers, deriving from personal experiences and word of mouth. This book acts as a forum for examining current and future trends in corporate branding, identity, image and reputation. Recognising the complexity and plurality at the heart of the corporate branding discipline, this book fills a gap in the literature by posing a number of original research questions on the intrinsic nature of corporate branding ideas from corporate (external) and organisation (internal) identity perspectives as they relate to brand management, corporate reputation, marketing communications, social media, smart technology, experiential and sensory marketing. It incorporates current thinking and developments by both multidisciplinary academics and practitioners, combining a comprehensive theoretical foundation with practical insights. The text will serve as an important resource for the marketing, identity and brand practitioners requiring more than anecdotal evidence on the structure and operation of stakeholders communication in different geographical areas. It determines current practices and researches in diverse areas, regions and commercial and non-commercial sectors across the world. The book provides scholars, researchers and postgraduate students in business and marketing with a comprehensive treatment of the nature of relationships between companies, brands and stakeholders in different areas and regions of the world.

Global Corporate Identity 3 is the third edition in a series offering some of the best international corporate identity in current use today. Designing for clients who conduct business on an international level isn't nearly the rare event it once was. Due in large part to the ease of internet communication, even small firms and freelance designers have this opportunity more than they ever have, so being exposed to ideas, themes, and design executions that cross cultural lines is invaluable. Global Corporate Identity 3 showcases hundreds of superlative examples of design used on a multinational level. Work from 30 different countries and five continents is represented in this book making it a welcome addition to any graphics reference library.
