When it comes to logo design, simplicity is often the key to success. Whilst many iconic logos have used minimalist qualities, we've never seen them in a series such as this. Using only lines, this collection sees famous logos in an ultra minimal manner.
Created by StockLogos, the likes of Coca-Cola, McDonalds, FedEx, Lego and YouTube have all had a minimalist makeover. Whilst some are barely recognisable, we have to say that others look better than ever - proving minimalism can really work.
But what do you make of all this minimalism? Does using only lines improve their design or simply make a mockery of everything that has made them iconic throughout the years?
