Twitter’s iconic bird logo as you know it had its debut in 2012 after a series of redesigns. “Larry the Bird,” as it’s endearingly called, originally dates back to some clip art created by a British graphic designer, Simon Oxley.

Canon’s original logo, from 1934, depicts a Bodhisattva Kwanon and a different spelling of the brand’s name. “Kwanon” was how the prototype for Japan’s first-ever 35 mm camera with a focal-plane-based shutter was named. In 1956, the company settled for its current red logo.

The company founded by Jeff Bezos simplified its logo with each change that was made. In its debut, the website’s domain was featured alongside a triangle with a defined path, easily read as a capital “A.” In 2000, the “.com” was dropped, and an arrow that goes from “A” to “Z” clearly identified the brand’s line of business.

From 1889 to 1950, Nintendo’s logo was written in the language of the company’s place of birth, Japan. The following logos adopted a western spelling of the company’s name until 2016 when the public was introduced to its current version.

Adidas’ signature 3-stripe design came to be after the company purchased it from a Finnish athletic footwear brand, Karhu Sports, which had used it in their products during 1952’s Summer Olympics.

One of the most recognizable logos in the world, the McDonald’s “golden arches” were added to the chain’s logo in 1962. They are a great contrast to the company’s text-based black and white logo that made its debut in 1940.

Valerie O’Neil, a Starbucks spokeswoman, explained in 2006 that the image in the logo is that of a “twin-tailed mermaid or siren, as she’s known in Greek mythology.” Since its original version in 1971, the logo’s image has been edited 3 times. The last and present one removed the wordmark and gave the siren the spotlight.

BBC’s present logo is the fifth version of the 3-box design. The first was used from 1958 until 1963. As previously mentioned, BBC’s logo redesign was a pricey one. But without changing what the public recognizes the most about it, the UK national broadcaster was still able to modernize its image.
