Information: Blue seems to be one of the colors that Microsoft uses in their logo, brands and products. Blue in the Internet Explorer logo means security and authority. It can also pertain to calmness. Another color that is visible in the Internet Explorer logo is yellow. The Internet Explorer logo is a lowercased letter ‘e’ with a yellow ring that seems to be revolving around the letter. This represents the browser’s capability to allow the users to visit different sites, anytime anywhere.
Information: Upon see the E in such a way. The bottom part of the E seems to be thinning out.
I can't unsee it now.
Considering its origin, it’s quite amazing that the new logo manages to look so good and that someone somewhere finally figured out how to make that “E” not suck. The new thickness of the letters and stroke hits the perfect density for the logo to look good at small and large sizes. The famous global strategic branding agency Siegel+Gale created the first Dell logo in 1984. The slanted “E” symbolised Michael Dell’s wish to “turn the world on its ear”
Information: The meaning of SPAR. The word 'Spar' in dutch means 'fir' and right from the start the fir tree was used as the symbol to identify the organisation. The word 'Spaar' in dutch means 'Savings'. The current logo of Spar was created by design legend Raymond Loewy. It used a stylized version of the fir tree motif that had been with the company since the start.
Information: This notorious symbol, Langdon had once read, was developed by Dow Chemical in the 1960s to replace an array of impotent warning graphics previously in use. Like all successful symbols, this one was simple, distinctive and easy to reproduce. Cleverly conjuring associations with everything from crab pincers to ninja hurling knives, the modern “biohazard” symbol had become a global brand that conveyed danger in every language.
Information: The EGO Creative Innovations logo was designed in 2012 by the company founder Eugene Polyansky. Circles represent the word EGO and symbolise a group of people with shared ideas and goals. EGO as the unique Me, the company Team, and Clients.
It’s a good solid, easy to read logo. Similar to the infinite loop. I would have used the dashed outline as a cut off point for the other letters. Rather than used a straight edge, just to be consistent.
Information: Do you know that Bluetooth got its name and logo from a Scandinavian king named Harald Gormsson? He was nicknamed Bluetooth due to his dead tooth that looked blue. Special Interest Group (SIG), which was responsible for developing a common radio communication standard, decided to adopt this name.

Rui is a graphic designer specialises in logo and brand identity design, based in a small town in the north of Portugal called Arcos de Valdevez. “This is my new personal brand, AD for Aguiam Design”. A monogram of AD with an IBM look to it. The curve of the D fits well with the GR but the left side bears no resemblance.
Information: The first BlackBerry device, the 850, was introduced in 1999 as a two-way pager in Munich, Germany. The name BlackBerry was coined by the marketing company Lexicon Branding. The name was chosen due to the resemblance of the keyboard's buttons to that of the drupelets that compose the blackberry fruit. One person described the meaning of the Blackberry logo “It's two stylised B's, staggered. One for Black, one for Berry. BB. That's what I've always assumed, anyway”. However, I see that 4 B’s would have been used to create this with 2 joining in the middle part of the logo. I also see it does loosely resemble a Blackberry fruit.
Information: The Vodafone logo was designed in 1997 by famous global advertising firm Saatchi & Saatchi. The speechmark in the emblem symbolizes conversation and voice communication. It wonderfully executes an iconic telecom brand that portrays its desired message through a graphically elegant medium. The old Vodafone logotype was very simple and crude, featuring a strike-through over the company’s name. The red color in the Vodafone logo represents talking, sound and passion.
Information: So this little gem reminds me of the Google G favicon that seems to defy the rules of geometry.
Simple as it seems, the N64 logo holds a hidden mathematical connection to the brand’s name and the type of processing unit is uses. The most interesting fact concerning the Nintendo 64 logo is that it has 64 faces and 64 vertices if rendered as a 3D model. If you try counting on your own, you may come to the conclusion that the numbers of the faces and vertices are different. That is because the Nintendo designers counted not only the blocks that are visible, but also the hidden ones.
Information: National Rail Network, Switzerland. Designed by Hans Hartmann in 1972 and was later modified in 1976 by Uli Huber and again in 1978 by Peter Spalinger.

However, George Faraco, Atari’s then creative director claimed this was fabricated and the logo has no actual meaning. However, in my anatomy, I have found the logo to fit perfectly between two golden ratio squares as provided in my diagram.
Information: Bruce Blackburn designed a logo to commemorate the nation's 200th birthday. By 1976 his logomark covered everything from patches to pins to stamps and coffee mugs. It even emblazoned government buildings. But bicentennial celebrations only last so long. The celebratory year came and went, and Blackburn's logo with it. Now, 40 years after its debut it's back and still a remarkable design.
Information: The Apple logo was designed by Rob Janoffin 1977. He designed it with a bite out of the right hand side to clearly depict an apple and not some other fruit forms. The original multi-coloured apple was from a specific colour palette and to indicate apple machines had

Information: Google's favicon from May 31, 1999 to May 29, 2008, was a blue, uppercase "G" on white background. It was accompanied by a border with a red, blue, and a green side. On May 30, 2008, a new favicon was launched. It showed the lowercase "g" from Google's 1999 logo, colored in blue against a white background, and originally was intended to be a part of a larger set of icons developed for better scalability on mobile devices. As of September 1, 2015, Google's favicon shows a capital letter "G", in the tailor-made font for the new logo, with segments colored red, yellow, green, and blue.
Information: According to CrystalWind, the Octahedron represents the element of Air and is linked to the Heart Chakra, which is the center for love and compassion. Also, it represents a mirror, a perfect reflection of itself, which is a lovely reminder of the mirrors/reflections that we are to each other. This center includes the healing and nurturing aspects within, which allow that sacred, safe space in which to find acceptance and forgiveness.

Information: The Square and Compasses (or, more correctly, a square and a set of compasses joined together) is the single most identifiable symbol of Freemasonry. Both the square and compasses are architect's tools and are used in Masonic ritual as emblems to teach symbolic lessons. The most common is that the "G" stands for Geometry, and is to remind Masons that Geometry and Freemasonry are synonymous terms described as being the "noblest of sciences", and "the basis upon which the superstructure of Freemasonry, and everything in existence in the entire universe is erected.
Information: The very first Dominos logo, which was created in the 1960’s, was created for two reasons. First it sought to attract more customers due to the bright and cheerful colors of the logo. The red, white and blue colors were meant to be highly noticeable so as to appeal to the largest amount of people possible. The three dots on the logo symbolize the three original Dominos locations that were open at the time. The current Dominos logo was created in early 2012. This logo kept the famous dominos icon, but removed the word pizza from the slogan
Information: Looks like the Mcdonalds logo adheres to the Golden Ratio. Take a look and you decide.
In 1962, designer Jim Schindler was hired to create a more “corporate” logo. He designed the golden arches logo most recognizable today, but based it on the previous representation of the arches that was on the Speedy sign. An early version of the golden arches logo was evident in the sign in front of that first restaurant. Constructed from another yellow arch, the top of the sign featured “Speedy” and the two yellow arches, with the roof line transecting them.
Information: In 2012 Twitter once again updated its logo. The very simple change merely deleted the word twitter and in its place left a much larger Twitter Bird. The reason for this change is probably quite simple. Twitter, in short, had become so famous that they didn’t even need to use the Twitter name. People, just by seeing the bird, would instantly know what it symbolized.
Information: The trefoil was the second Adidas logo. The theme of three stripes is still evident in the look, both in the leave that shoot out from the logo, and the three stripes that cross it diagonally. This logo was chosen because the company wanted a logo that represented the fact that their brand was a lot larger and more diverse that it used to be while still keeping the classic Adidas look.
Information: The harp device has been synonymous with Guinness since 1862 when it was used as a symbol on the first bottle label for GUINNESS®. It was registered as a Guinness company trademark in 1876. It is because of the harp trademark that Guinness named its first lager 'Harp' in 1960.
Information: The Under Armour logo was born from the Under Armour name, which was essentially formed by accident. Back when the company was first starting, Kevin Plank mentioned the idea of calling it “Body Armor”. His brother, Bill, misheard him and thought he said “under armor”. The name stuck, of course with the British spelling being used in order to get the phone number Plank wanted. The logo was designed soon thereafter, combining the “U” in “Under” with the “A” in “Armour” to form a very simplistic logo that is now recognizable around the world.
Information: This version is the predecessor of the 2009 monstrosity which was ranked very highly as being...a monstrosity. "We call this the searchlight graphic as it uses the Bing symbol as a prism of light and inspiration", was one of Scott's comments. "The new Bing identity is more than a new logo and colour palette - it's a system of brand architecture that allows us to strategically and visually evolve Bing in line with our mission and our product".
Information: The new logo doesn't yet scream F1 but after one or two seasons of use it definitely will, simply because that's what people will see when they are watching a Formula 1 event. It breaks from any contemporary conventions of logo. It's not square to fit in social media avatars, it's not flattened, it's not hipster, and it's italicized as hell. The new logo might not become as beloved as the old one but it has so much more commercial potential.
Information: On 29 September 2015, Channel 4 updated their logo to a variant of the 1982 logo. Initially, the full logo wouldn't be seen on idents, bumpers, and promo end-boards, as the nine blocks that make up the logo appear separately on-air instead. Both fonts were also created for the channel; Horseferry and Chadwick.
Information: The new logo is more modern, simple and digital. The flame has a greater presence and the word Santander is clearer, more legible and simpler - able to adapt to any media and any channel. It has been freed from the red square to gain more flexibility and modernity. New versions, such as the vertical version, have been created to respond to specific needs and the flame gains more focus and Independence.

Carolyn Davidson, a student at Portland State University during the time Knight taught there, created the logo, attempting to convey motion in its design.
The original Nike 'Swoosh' logo wasn't black as we see it today. For a very long time, Nike used red and white color palette on its logo. The company motive behind the color scheme was that red stood for energy, passion and joy and white expressed nobility purity and charm of the brand.

Information: Not much in the way of information about the design of the Messenger icon but still a cool design to dissect.
Information: The name "Mitsubishi" refers to the three-diamond emblem. "Mitsubishi" is a combination of the words mitsu and hishi. Mitsu means three. Hishi means water chestnut, and Japanese have used the word for a long time to denote a rhombus or diamond shape. Japanese often bend the "h" sound to a "b" sound when it occurs in the middle of a word. So they pronounce the combination of mitsu and hishi as mitsubishi.

Information: Don't believe the logo's asymmetrical? Admittedly you do have to look rather closely, but once you notice the difference you'll be glad Nintendo opted for the slightly lopsided design.
This isn't an oversight on Nintendo's part, though. The asymmetry counterbalances the different visual weights of the two halves. The solid half has a more prominent position, so to compensate for this it makes sense that its size is ever so slightly narrowed.
Information: The Chase logo was introduced in 1961, when the Chase National Bank and the Bank of the Manhattan Company merged to form the Chase Manhattan Bank. At the time, few American corporations used abstract symbols for their identification.

Information: Launched in 2007, Dropbox is most well known for being a file-storage and file-sharing web service. Back in 2015, Dropbox made a feeble attempt at a redesign with a somewhat unnecessary wordmark change that made the logo no much better or worse than it already was (or wasn't). The biggest change is that the box icon stops being a literal depiction of a box with floppy flap and instead it is now a less literal box. Most identities rely on a single style ( and multiple weights) of a type family. Here, they are using all 21 widths in 7 weights of the type family.
Information: Not much in the way of information. It's has great nostalgic value to me. This Commodore Vic 20 was my first computer as a child. Now look at me, still stuck behind a computer for my job lol.

The symbol mark consists of two elements: the LG logo in LG Grey and the stylized image of a human face in the unique LG Red color. Red, the main color represents our friendliness, and also gives a strong impression of LG's commitment to deliver the best. In 1995, to compete better in the Western market, the Lucky-Goldstar Corporation was renamed "LG". As you can see by the grid. When the GR was applied vertically to fit. The outer line matches up perfectly with the end of the letter L and the end part of the letter G. Coincidence?
Information: The batwing has had a few makeovers since its debut in 1955 but continues to stand for innovation and quality. The familiar “M” can still be seen on all our devices.

The three dots on the logo symbolize the three original Dominos locations that were open at the time. The current Dominos logo was created in early 2012.

Information: Don't believe the logo's asymmetrical? Admittedly you do have to look rather closely, but once you notice the difference you'll be glad Nintendo opted for the slightly lopsided design.
This isn't an oversight on Nintendo's part, though. The asymmetry counterbalances the different visual weights of the two halves. The solid half has a more prominent position, so to compensate for this it makes sense that its size is ever so slightly narrowed.

Information: Launched in 2007, Dropbox is most well known for being a file-storage and file-sharing web service. Back in 2015, Dropbox made a feeble attempt at a redesign with a somewhat unnecessary wordmark change that made the logo no much better or worse than it already was (or wasn't). The biggest change is that the box icon stops being a literal depiction of a box with floppy flap and instead it is now a less literal box. Most identities rely on a single style ( and multiple weights) of a type family. Here, they are using all 21 widths in 7 weights of the type family.

The outer line matches up perfectly with the end of the letter L and the end part of the letter G. Coincidence?
