Spotify and EBay made the right choices here, the new logos are way better.

It is subjective, I like the old eBay logo more, but dislike the old Airbnb one.

[–] AnUnusualRelic 1 points 46 minutes ago

Well, they certainly fin in better with all the others.

All these minimalist labels save .0005¢ every time they’re printed, probably even more on promo booths, banners, and the like.

Aaaah then indeed that makes sense (and this is not ironic).

[–] RememberTheApollo_ 2 points 44 minutes ago

Oh, I wasn’t being entirely serious, though there is an element of truth to it. It probably is a measurable cost savings over the scale of the business.

I still think these unremarkable corporate logos are boring AF. Just makes them visually soulless along with just being corporate soulless.

Better:

  • Revolut (though a fintech company named after a revolution lacking the charge at the end is still moronic in several ways)
  • airbnb (from awful to meh)
  • Spotify (same)

Worse:

  • Pinterest (original fit the platform and what it is/was pretty much perfectly. Current is meh)
  • eBay (both are bad IMO, but at least the original was bad in a playful and eye-catching way. The new one is just more meh
  • Burberry (the stag was notable and signalled a history of old-fashioned quality that's suitably rugged. The new one is meh AND insecure about people knowing which London they're from)
  • Rimova (yet another fashion brand apparently afraid of being noticed
  • DF (from one of the best and most fashion-appropriate logos to an absolute eyesore and kerning nightmare that invites vandalism)
  • Jaguar (From absolutely iconic and great in every way to even uglier than the new DF one. I hope whomever came up with that got both fired and beaten and I'm a pacifist.)

The rest just go from meh to slightly different meh 🤷

I liked the old aibnb one.

Microsoft went from "boring with a bit of attitude" to just plain boring

[–] [email protected] 9 points 14 hours ago

DF gets points dedacted for missing the ü dots on both, looks absolutely stupid to a german speaker

Those old fashion logos are actually sick. Concerning that an industry that sells style would make these their logos.

[–] naught101 15 points 14 hours ago

Except eBay, that was always trash.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 12 hours ago

I wonder how much correlation there is between logo blandification and being owned by giant corporations.
