New Logo for Sam's Club
Screengrab from the 2019 Walmart Shareholders Meeting. If you are into it, you can watch the full 3 hours of it here. The Sam's Club segment starts around the 1:18:00 mark, although they don't really talk about the logo but it's kind of amazing to see how much Sam's Club employees genuinely like Sam's Club.

Opinion
If you enjoy diamonds, the old logo had four of them for you in different colors and sizes. It wasn’t a great logo and it wasn’t a terrible logo but there also no high design expectations from Walmart so that middle-of-the-road-ness of the old logo was perfectly fine. The new logo now tries to be cool and design-y and fails very hard at it. The two overlapping diamonds have been transformed into two chevron-parenthesis kind of things that form an awkward diamond together. The shapes are generic and not very pleasing, which can be sort of forgiven in the horizontal lock-up version when the icon is smaller but is fairly obnoxious in the stacked lock-up where the icon is unnecessarily large. The lowercase approach is obviously a way of trying to make this more accessible and friendlier and while that often works in most cases, here it feels very forced. Even visually it’s a disservice because an uppercase for “Sam” would have balanced out the ascenders of “Club” and what feels like a VERY large apostrophe. The “l” and “b” have some gratuitous angles that if they at least matched the angles of the icon could have been warranted and the curve at the bottom of the “l” is an added obstacle to cleaner kerning. Overall, this feels like an unnecessary update — perhaps even a wasted update as the capital investment required to update all the signage is not really worth it for this logo.

The 18 Best Things to See and Do in Oslo

Image
Posted : 6/26/2020 | June 26th, 2020 Balancing natural beauty, historic architecture, and a modern flair, Oslo , Norway’s beautiful capital, is a city that punches well above its weight. It’s small but bursting with things to do: there are countless museums, spacious parks, and delicious restaurants to keep you busy. It’s close to numerous forests with hiking and biking trails, and there are lots of places to swim in the summer too. However, since it’s expensive, a lot of travelers pass Oslo by. While a visit will certainly eat into your budget, Oslo is definitely worth a couple of days. To help show precisely why you should add it to your itinerary, here are my favorite things to see and do in Oslo:   1. Take a Free Walking Tour I always start my trips off with a free walking tour. They’re a budget-friendly way to see the main sights, learn a little history, meet other travelers, and get access to an expert local guide who can answer all my questions. Free Tour Oslo organ...

Practical Action rebrands to show “how small actions can change the big picture”

Image
NB Studio has created a new identity for Practical Action, a UK development organisation. Practical Action was established in 1966 with the aim of creating appropriate technologies for developing regions of the world. It works primarily in Eastern and Southern Africa, South Asia and Latin America. It was founded by economist and philosopher Fritz Schumacher whose book, Small is Beautiful, champions the concept that small changes can empower people more than big ones. Practical Action’s aim is to provide sustainable technologies – systems that countries can accommodate with their existing resources – instead of providing large-scale aid that cannot be easily sustained. The charity was originally called Intermediate Technology Development Group but was changed to Practical Action in 2005. “Ingenuity People” Nick Finney, founder and creative director at NB Studio, says that the brand update aims to clarify the charity’s function. One of the problems with its previous names, Finne...

The legacy of Life magazine’s images celebrated in new show

Image
When Life magazine was re-launched by magazine magnate Henry Luce in 1936, the idea was to put photojournalism at the forefront and publish only photography-led stories. Readers soon became accustomed to seeing images from around the world that gave them the kind of first-hand insight they’d never previously had. At one point it was selling 13.8 million copies a week, and in its lifetime the magazine commissioned more than 120,000 stories and 10 million photographs. Life was published up until 2000, and to celebrate the contributions the magazine made to documentary photography and photojournalism, Atlas Gallery in London is exhibiting a selection of some of the magazine’s most iconic and influential photographs. VJ Day, Times Square, NY by Alfred Eisenstaedt (August 14, 1945) © LIFE Gallery of Photography.
