Do these logos look familiar?
in Blog
These logos are the old incarnations of some of today’s biggest tech companies. Take a look at these and guess which products/company they represent.
Aren’t we glad they don’t look like these anymore?
Logo #1 belongs to Adobe
Logo #2 is Apple’s
Logo #3 is Firefox’s, when it was still called Phoenix/Thunderbird
Logo #4 is Canon
Logo #5 is the ubiquitous Microsoft; its retro-style logo a far cry from the glossy Vista interface
Apple, known for their sleek product designs and polished user interfaces, is probably the last company you’d expect to produce a very complicated and intricate logo of Isaac Newton sitting under an apple tree. Steve Jobs thought the complex logo had something to do with the initial slow sales of the company so he had it changed to “the most expensive bloody logo ever designed”– the iconic bitten apple logo in six rainbow colors.
See Apple’s logo evolution and other logo histories of companies like Google, Nokia, Motorola in this Neatorama article, The Evolution of Tech Companies’ Logos.
