Where and how can I use it?

SVG format

It’s a lightweight vector format (in kilobytes) that’s ideal for use on websites, in mobile apps, and for print. Thanks to its scalability to any size without loss of quality, it can be scaled from the size of an icon to a banner on a building. The file is easily editable in popular graphics editors such as Figma, Adobe Illustrator, CorelDRAW, and others, and opens in Photoshop without any issues.

The American Express logo is a deep blue square with the brand name inside, written in uppercase letters without serifs. The top line, “AMERICAN,” is aligned to the left edge of the square, and the bottom line, “EXPRESS,” is aligned to the right edge. The letters are blue, with a thick white outline separating the text from the solid blue background. In 2018, Pentagram removed the gradient and made the background completely solid, while the font was redesigned for better readability on digital screens. There is also a shortened version of the logo with the inscription “AMEX,” used in small spaces and digital interfaces.

American Express Company was founded in 1850 as a service for delivering valuable goods and money transfers and is now an international operator of payment and financial services. It issues credit and payment cards and provides banking solutions for consumers and businesses in dozens of countries. The brand name reflects its American origin (“American”) and fast service (“Express”), and the signature blue square has become a recognizable symbol of reliability and stability in the global financial arena.

Mercedes-Benz: a drawing from a postcard

Gottlieb Daimler drew a three-pointed star on a postcard for his wife, writing that it would one day shine over every engine and factory he built. After his death, his sons turned this symbol into a logo. The three points represent the company’s ambition to succeed on land, sea, and air. A four-pointed version was also patented, but the three-pointed one was chosen for its stronger visual impact. Since then, the core of the logo has remained unchanged.

A little secret of the Ford logo

The Ford logo, with its iconic blue oval and elegant script, was first used in 1907. Here’s a fun fact: the famous handwritten font associated with the brand wasn’t actually created by Henry Ford himself, but by a company designer who simply copied his autograph! So every time you see the Ford logo, you’re looking at the “handwriting” of someone who never imagined it would become so iconic.

When the perfect domain is taken, eBay is born

The company was originally called Echo Bay Technology Group — named after a picturesque bay near founder Pierre Omidyar’s home. But the domain echobay.com was already taken (by a gold mining company), so Omidyar simply shortened it to ebay.com. That’s how a name that would become a global brand was born — completely by chance, but forever part of e-commerce history.

Coca-Cola is the most recognizable logo in the world

The Coca-Cola logo is often called the most recognizable in the world. Research by Nielsen, Interbrand and YouGov shows that people across the globe instantly recognize the signature Spencerian lettering. This visual style has been used since the late 19th century, and over the decades it has become part of global culture: the brand is present in more than 200 countries, and its logo is considered one of the key icons of world marketing.

FedEx in “Cast Away” — not a dime spent on advertising

FedEx became part of the storyline in the cult film “Cast Away” (2000) starring Tom Hanks, without spending a dollar on advertising. The company provided props, uniforms, and logistical expertise to create a realistic image of a delivery service. In return, it gained worldwide recognition — the FedEx logo became a symbol of reliability, and the brand is firmly associated with the story of survival and returning home.
