Actually, a lot of the force of your criticism disappears when you realise that they are both derivatives of governmental logos used in the UK -- not surprising since both bodies are British. The Ministry of Sound logo is a derivative of the crowned portcullis logo of the Parliament of the UK - see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parliament_of_the_United_Kingdom https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parliament_of_the_United_Kingd...

> they are both derivatives of governmental logos used in the UK No they aren't. The MOS logo uses emblems of the British state (crown and portcullis) to create a design that's completely different from that of any British state institution, as demonstrated by your own example. The logo of "Ministry of Testing" is not inspired by any Government emblem, it's literally just the MOS logo with one word changed and a ninja instead of a portcullis/speaker. A company that makes $100k/month and brags about its "uber cool" design should be able to do better than that.
