Look at my next comment.
The doc clearly goes over a lot of crazy ideas. But one of those crazy ideas, the comparison to emojis, led to a massive ad campaign for Pepsi.
That would not have been possible if the logo was not designed in that fashion. As a thought experiment, look at those ads and those emojis on the bottle spinning to reveal a Coca Cola logo...it simply would not work.
What the doc actually looks like is a fairly well thought out design, that took a highly successful logo that had become rather long in the tooth, freshened it up significantly while still maintaining a clear connection to the logo it replaced.
It also contains a bunch of far out ideas to get the creative juices flowing, and at least one of those ideas did end up being a pepsi marketing campaign.
- dahdum 5y agoOh I’m not disagreeing, the emoji link is inspired but I can’t shake the feeling the doc came long after, not as part of the process. I’m not a professional designer, but that process isn’t like anything I’ve seen from those that are. Though I’ve not worked with large design committees, mostly just small teams of 1-3.
