Australian designer Nick Barclay refashioned a few famous logos in his latest series of graphic posters. These brand new designs display a set of iconic logos with a simpler look.
Nick Barclay is known for his minimalistic style. Inspired by his own wonder at how entrenched logos are in the average psyche, Barclay created a line of minimalistic and nearly unrecognizable logos. Removing as much detail as possible, Barclay has redesigned these famous logos by only illustrating bare shapes and colors from the original brand designs.
These famous logos include a simplified Google logo where the letters have been replaced with colored blocks, three yellow lines that signify Mcdonald's golden arches as well as three layers of circles which make a minimal Starbucks logo.
