fun fact about this: you might think, "Oh look some stupid trendy agency full of 25 year olds wearing $600 kanye west dadshoes designed this" but you'd be wrong

it took five different agencies to help them realize this master vision of design

e: i literally cannot tell how they've changed the logo. they gushed about how they'd updated the design in the ios app as well but it looks identical to my eyes
could be worse i guess

changes to the box logo are pretty minor, if you weren't the kind of person who pays attention to this sort of thing it's easy to lose behind all their awesome new shiny colors and 217 different font weights

even though their name includes the word 'box' and their logo is a box and they're named after a physical box in the real world they want you to know that they're, like, more than a box, man

we felt too constrained by the limitations of this incredibly obvious and consumer friendly brand metaphor

speaking of horrible 2017 redesigns, new witecutter/sweethome is babbys first Wordpress affiliate website, complete with chunky unreadable fonts, ugly baby blue colors, weird center justified poo poo and shoving buyme links in your face tooting their own generic horn on the fp

I don't read it much, but the new mentalfloss redesign also sucks, and bad for many of the same probs

of course you could pay millions of dollars to "refresh your image" after all the dog fighting and drug trafficking



and then realize that nobody likes the new poo poo just give them the old poo poo but cleaned up for lower resolution screens.

Logo Simplification has always been the trend for all brands as you need to be recognized faster



i like this one because they were like "quick guys! we need to show that we're more digital!" and then *picks an RGB color instead of a CMYK color* *Picks a san serif font that looks real close*
