New Logo for State of Colorado done In-house

New Logo for State of Colorado done In-house
 

Colorado had introduced a pretty decent logo and system six years ago and for some reason they replaced it with the most convoluted logo possible that needs 8 colors to work -- if you can call that logo working. See original post

New Logo for Chicago Fire FC by Doubleday & Cartwright

New Logo for Chicago Fire FC by Doubleday & Cartwright
 

I did not dislike this logo as passionately as almost everyone else but it's definitely a major letdown for a big city team.See original post

New Logo and Font for It’s More Fun in the Philippines by BBDO Guerrero

New Logo and Font for It's More Fun in the Philippines by BBDO Guerrero
 

A visually noisy icon that's unclear what it is gets no assist from a really ugly custom typeface.See original post

New Logo and Identity for Cheetah by Moving Brands

New Logo and Identity for Cheetah by Moving Brands
 

I'm a Moving Brands fan and I do believe them when they say this funky logo is appropriate for the personality of their client so it pains me to say this but, man, that Cheetah-type-animal-thing is a real eyesore and the kind of concept perpetrated by a Year 1 design student.See original post

New Logo for Sallie Mae

New Logo for Sallie Mae
 

Ugh, no. Whatever is happening here, no.See original post

New Logo for Lord + Taylor

New Logo for Lord + Taylor
 

What a waste of legacy, replacing decades of mostly decent and energetic script logos in favor of the lamest typography possible inside a square with the most pointless use of white space.See original post

New Name and Logo for Peacock

New Name and Logo for Peacock

Aside from the name, which I still dislike, the logo is so unappealing with its weird "p" and "k" that match none of the other letters. See original post

No.

New Logo for Sears

New Logo for Sears
 

Winner of the Most Pointless Icon Award is Sears. It's an unnecessary addition to a brand name that despite not being the most well-regarded brand name has so much equity it doesn't need some abstract thing in horrible colors next to it. See original post

New Logo for Sam’s Club

New Logo for Sam's Club
 

The old logo wasn't great by any standard but in comparison to the new one it's almost amazing. The gigantic arrows and lowercase wordmark add up to the poorest evolution possible. See original post

No.

New Name and Logo for AT&T TV Now

New Name and Logo for AT&T TV Now
 

A terrible name complemented by terrible typography. A match made in hell.See original post

No.

New Logo for Macy’s

New Logo for Macy's
 

At first glance maybe it's no so bad but the lack of overshoot in the curved letters is inexcusable. There is a lot of subjectivity around typography but one objective, 100% factual, irrefutable aspect of it is that curved letters need an overshoot. This is typographic malpractice.See original post

New Logo for American Bar Association by Finn Partners

New Logo for American Bar Association by Finn Partners
 

This is the worst possible idea for a ligature executed in the worst possible way. No designer should look at that logo and think "I did a good job here, I can go home and sleep a peaceful, deep sleep knowing I have contributed good design to the world today". See original post
