UNFORTUNATE AMBIGIOUS LOGOS. WILL THEY DAMAGE THE BUSINESSES THAT CREATED THEM?

Often companies spend enormous ressources designing a (new) corporate logo, product logo or campaign logo designed.

According to Wikipedia,  a logo’s design is for immediate recognition, inspiring trust, admiration, loyalty and an implied superiority. The logo is one aspect of a company’s commercial brand, or economic or academic entity, and its shapes, colors, fonts, and images usually are different from others in a similar market. Logos are also used to identify organizations and other non-commercial entities.

Here are some logos that definately makes YOU think about something other than what was intended (I am sure)

I think the images speak for themselves

Clinica Dental, now what to expect? Perhaps the CMO should consider a new logo design (or perhaps not :- )

The Kunaware Pharmacy might want to consider designing the “K” differently.

The worst of the worst. Arlington Pediatric Center.
It’s simply a disgrace, and the CMO should immediately take steps to implement a new logo design. Perhaps using the letters APC might be the safest bet.

An unfortunate placement, or is it?


Difficult to avoid the situation in the Nestle outdoor add below. I think this picture might be staged, don’t you?




If you know of other examples, please do let me know

I think that the APC logo is the worst of them all. What do you think?
