Artist Reveals What Fonts Were Used To Design Famous Logos (30 Pics)

Always wondered why Adidas had the chimneys of the sinking Titanic as their logo.

Ha! What an appropriate font name! (Pico in Spanish means "beak", among other stuff. If you ask a Chilean you may have a faaar different translation, haha!)

Of Half Dome in Yosemite Nat'l Park California.

helvetica is one of the most used fonts in the design industry

And is this the same font that was used on the cover of Needful Things as well?

Not the same font. The logo pre-dates the font with 80 years.

i like this name better

This designer is wrong... It looks like Knockout HTF-49 Lightweight. Look at the weight on the lowercase e and o...

Again!

Customized to make the thins even thinner.

Future BBQ?

This s**t writes itself.

Very original.

My current favorite font. I think the Obama presidential campaign used this font. It symbolizes modernity, clarity.

How is this and the Hilfeger logo are the same font?

Google created product Sans, so does that really count? Also it was based off Futura with a few minor tweaks.

Arial Rounded, I would say.

Tik Tok deserves to be banned.

Need to tighten the kerning a little.

I believe it's Avenir

with a little help...

interesting enough, billabong ISN'T actually the font used in instagram. if you search it up, you'll find that it's actually a handwritten script SIMILAR to billabong. but of course here you can easily see they are not the same

Same font as The Price Is Right.

The kerning is made so all the letters are the same width apart. but how much incline?

Not exactly. Klavika a top curves downward, k shows daylight between strokes.

Close, but not. Check the A and the E.

Um... no its not. I feel like FedEx is pointed to as one of the best examples of Helvetica in logo usage.

No, it's not. The GoT logo has heavier serifs, with serifs at the top of the M and N.

Again, tighten your kerning.

ironic that it's not in the billabong fonr

no it's not the same at all: see the R, the weight of the serifs..

Notice the difference in the curve of the R.

okay i like the pun in this one

Tupperware's logo now reminds of something else... I wonder if they'll change it due to bad rep.

Ah, you do know how to kern.

Notice the flat top of Toyota's A is wider than the one in Avenir.

However, the logo uses round dots on the i's and the v has been customized to make the bottom pointy rather than flat like the standard font.
