Subliminal Messages In Brand Logos.
Here are some brand logos with subliminal messages
1. NBC
Most of us are pretty familiar with the peacock hiding in
the network's official logo but there's a lot more than meets the eye. The
rainbow palette of its feathers is supposed to state that NBC is a channel not
just for Americans, but for citizens of all ethnicities.
2. Amazon
Clever and innovative, Amazon's logo holds two distinct
meanings. The first is the arrow that points from A to Z - referring to
everything being available on their website - while also signifying a satisfied
smile that's accented by a dimple.
3. Sony
Vaio
This Sony logo represents the brand's integration of both
digital and analog technology. The "VA" is designed to represent an
analog waveform and the "IO" symbolizes binary code.
4.
Coca-Cola
Subliminal messages aren't always easy to find, especially
in popular logos most of us see every day. The most popular brand being
Coca-Cola which lends a tribute to its European locations with its white font
where each "O" crosses to represent the flag of Denmark.
5. LG
Electronics
The main purpose of the South Korean multinational
electronics company was to create a logo that symbolizes trust and positivity.
Luckily, they hit those subjects on the head as not only does their design
feature a winking face, but it also references the video game character
"Pac-Man".
6. Baskin
Robbins
Though some believe the shade of pink to symbolize ice
cream, the color choice actually has a different use. Introduced in 2005, this
logo uses the company's initials to cleverly advertise the number of ice cream
flavours the chain offers.
7. Tostitos
Tortilla chips aren't just comforting, they're fun! Look
closely at the centre of this logo and you'll notice two people enjoying a
Tostito chip with a bowl of salsa. This design was built to convey the feeling
of connecting with others.
8. Unilever
Unlike other companies, Unilever takes pride in its brand
and actually represents its products (food, beverages, personal care) through
smaller details. For example, the heart represents love, care and well-being,
while the bird is a symbol of freedom, relief of daily chores and getting more
out of life.
9. Roxy
Does the Roxy logo design look familiar? It should because
there's a very good chance you've seen it before. It's almost identical to its
parent company, Quiksilver, as the extreme sports clothing outlet combined two
of their logos to form a heart.
10. Eighty
Twenty
It's hard to tell if you don't know what Eighty Twenty is
but the market data research company actually incorporated the binary code
spelling of their company's name. With blue and grey squares as zeroes, the top
line is 1010000 (80) and the bottom line is 0010100 (20).
11. Milwaukee
Brewers
Diving into the world of sports, it's pretty easy to miss
the meaning behind the Milwaukee Brewer's second logo. Obviously, the MLB logo
represents a mitt but it's normally hard to picture the built-in-letters at
first glance.
12. Jack
In The Box
It's rare to see a fast-food chain change its primary logo
(we all thought Wendy's was a one-time thing) but the folks at the Jack In The
Box felt it was needed. After all, their old design did feature a pretty
obvious Ichthys/"Jesus Fish".
13. FedEx
Originally known as FDX Corporation, FedEx was founded in
Little Rock, Arkansas in 1973. Since then, they've always been about moving
forward as even their logo features an arrow in the negative space of two of
its letters.
14. Toblerone
Chocolate bars are more known for gimmicks than subliminal
notes - we're still waiting on that chocolate bar with EVERYTHING - but
Toblerone's logo actually features a dancing bear. The design is a tribute to
the Swiss town where the chocolate is created!
15. Tour
De France
Can you spot the cyclist in the Tour de France logo? We sure
can, and truth be told, the yellow circle is supposed to represent the sun
which notes that the stages of the cycling event only takes place during the
daytime.
