    This was such a comfy video. I agree that a lot of older logos are just so much better (I know it wasn't talked about but the fact Burger King tried to emulate one of its oldest logos and it actually looks better then the 2000s one says a lot). It's just fun to be able to hear people talk about logos and aspects they love or hate. It makes me happy lol Also I do miss the old Aztrosist logo

    A video actually sort of explains this well, from " Why Companies Are 'Debranding' ". Simplifying your logo will make it more identifiable in digital format. When it comes to small icons in websites or phone/computer apps, a simplified logo works best. You can scale it down and not lose too much detail but in print, magazines, billboards, posters, you'd probably want detail and gradients because higher quality logos signify a higher quality brand, but we don't see these logos in print as much anymore. Everything is through our phones or computers. Flat colors and simplicity will lend more flexibility for the logos to be used across devices, especially when it comes to scaling up or down the image.

      @lol That's not really due to liking them but more being _used to_ them. People always dislike something they're not used to until either they realize it's not bad or they get used to it.
      Yea, people are hypocritical on change, ha. They want it in their head but not real because it requires flexibility.
      That said, I do think the case of "new is becoming soulless" is not based on "not used to it". There was transitioning and the simplicity is easy on the mind. Yet people are slowly hating them more and more.

    a good way to compare is handwritten manuscripts in medieval ages to printing press copies. handwritten manuscripts are -without a doubt- way more aesthetically pleasing & artistically creative - but the labour/supplies were not convenient. But w/ logos it’s more the program/coding that takes a break but the design concept diminishing for convenient general-type is still the big similarity

  • @0tterhead
    @0tterhead Год назад +15

    People are a little harsh on newer logos but if I remember correctly someone made it sound a lot smarter to me one time, saying that the less clutter in the logo and more simple colours allows for it to be recognized from a blur or from a quick glance or at smaller resolutions since it's not as much information to take in. Like yeah you could say 'well nuh uh! my brain remembers 's old logo so well that i can see it from a distance and immediately recognize it!'
    well yeah, thats *you* the world isn't tailored to YOU. I dont particularly care one way or another how a logo looks but there's a point to consider that while maybe modern logos are more boring, they're definitely a lot more recognizable at a glance. Its a logical evolution.
    that said I love your videos Astro and I'm really glad to see your newer stuff, its sick :)

    • @GoddoDoggo
      @GoddoDoggo Год назад +7

      I mean, to a point, sure, but if you keep simplifying past the point of sense, you eventually end up with a bunch of logos that are roughly the same shape (usually round) and color (usually white, blue, orange, or red). And then they are so simplified that they are no longer really recognizable. Like Firefox's logo was already pretty simple and recognizable already, and then they oversimplified so much that they almost removed the "fox" entirely.

    • @weridplusho
      @weridplusho Год назад +1

      That's a bit circular logic. Identification comes from seeing something often. Any logo, old or new, can become identifiable at "a glance". Otherwise people wouldn't have nostalgia and association for the old logos.
      Nothing changes from simplifying them in this case.

    Hi corporate logo designer here, these may or may not decrease brand trust and approachability, these new designs are research approved by the masses, and are optimized to maximize some metrics that are important to business, like increasing recognizability, and transferability of the logo especially in the internet age where logo's have to fit in tiny spaces, and not pollute the rest of the design elements

      Ayyy fellow graphics design nerd and artist and stuff; right on!. I mean majority of the corporate logos still look like crap visually. They're good in a visual and organizational hierarchy sense like you've said, but if we're talking creatively and stylistically, nah not even close. And I'm saying this as a person who can't draw for crap either but still does graphic des., fine arts from time to time for the fun of it and in my spare leisurely time. Maybe if I somehow improve and do it more frequent and in practice, I'll do like some commissions and whatever, but that's not ever gonna happen any time soon I think.
