Oversimplification has taken over! I prefer the original logo!

All of the"redesigns" are terrible. Every single one of them, not one offers any improvement whatsoever.

This is not one of BoredPanda’s best posts. Most of these are meh.

A lot of the little subtleties and nuances from the original logos have been removed such as the pin in the Pinterest logo. Some are OK but a lot miss the mark

Anyone can redesign a logo, what matters though is understanding what the client actually wants, what their wider design principles are, how their brand influences their style and what elements they want to include or change in a redesign. It's never just what the designer can redesign where big brands are involved

Put away the Helvetica and Futura, kids.

The only good one was the Google maps one. If I was the client and someone came to me with these as redesigns, I’d ask them how they got past security.

Most of these redesigns look like rejected ideas.

This post was never going to land well because we all prefer what we already know (see: outcry each time Facebook changes design). Having said that, some of them really do seem like a big step back.

Bet some of these are taken for new designs, let hope they are paid for

So basically, simplified designs with comic sans typeface. Groundbreaking.

I came here to be bash on so-called improvements and I was not dissappointed. Reality checks are the best!

Simplicity effective

Hey i'm curious, but what makes a design work? what makes one good, or bad?

I think the font was off on a lot of these

Nope - most of these are not an improvement.

These are the perfect example of the blandness of the oversimplification trend.

Well, there's a reason they paid professionals vast sums of money to create the originals....

All this shows is people hate change

These are all utterly pointless. It could be argued that so am I, but it's all my own original work.

Having worked in the design industry for over 30 years, I know that top dollar clients will pay ridiculous sums of money for the tiniest unnecessary alteration to a logo. And often it's just because someone on their board thought, 'well, it's time for a change'. And also, clients are ALWAYS better designers than, you know, the designers. *rolls eyes*

They had us in the first part no gonna lie

Most of these "designers" modified the original version to obtain a "new" logo
