The logo for the Polish city oil company CPN - (Centrala Produktow Naftowych), remains one of the best Polish designs for me. It also proves that the quality of design in Poland in the 1960s has been much more than just the Polish poster school. The origin of the spatiality of this logo lies in the Polish graphical tradition of black and white woodcut (1930s of the XX century). The technical limitation to think in black and white has produced a brilliant result here. The company itself exists under the name Orlen and uses a new logo.
