Logo Trends

15 trends in logo design.

btw, I've probably mentioned it before, but the newish BP (British Petroleum!) logo is the most evil thing around. I'm mean it looks great, brings up thoughts of the sun, flowers and greenery. For an oil company. Great for them, awful for humanity...

saw this yesterday as well while reading the news... good to see i'm not the only person who thought it was a neat thing... as for BP, the States likes it a lot... because it's different, not because it looks good - they must have the brightest gas stations in the world...

BP might be bad, but Monsanto's logo is downright evil. Food Health Hope? as in "I hope my food doesn't damage my health?

hmmm andrew, Monsanto is one of the most evil corporations around no doubt about that. But logowise I can't get too angry, its a plant, and funny enough they grow plants. Genetically modified profit maximizing plants, but still plants.

As for the tagline, yeah I'm not surprised. BP really gets me though cause it tells the lie *visually* and tells it well. Text? Lets just say I don't trust a word from companies like Monsanto...

I agree with you the way you view the issue. I remember Jack London once said everything positive has a negative side; everything negative has positive side. It is also interesting to see different viewpoints & learn useful things in the discussion.
