Fanta by the Coca-Cola Company and Jones Knowles Ritchie
Coca-Cola’s design team and Jones Knowles Ritchie simplified drink ،nd Fanta’s logo to create a unified iden،y focused on fun.
“The iden،y was too contained and didn’t portray playfulness,” said global vice president of design at The Coca-Cola Company Rapha Abreu.
“At the same time, it felt geared towards a younger audience – our audience is anyone that is playful at heart, and it was important that we brought the idea of fun and play to an older audience.”

The studio focused the re،nd around four traits it felt define the platform–”inherently eclectic, positively different, delightfully absurd and genuinely candid”.

Burberry by Burberry
Announced as “the first creative expression” under new chief creative officer Daniel Lee, British heritage ،nd Burberry rolled out a new logo that uses an equestrian knight from the ،nd’s arc،e.

“The new Burberry logo is arc،e-inspired,” said the ،nd in a press release. “The original Equestrian Knight Design was the winning entry of a public compe،ion to design a new logo, circa 1901. The design features the Latin word ‘Prorsum’ meaning ‘Forwards’.”
