The legendary “Golden Arches” of McDonald’s were not originally a logo, but part of the restaurant design in the 1950s — the curved structures on either side of the buildings caught the attention of passersby. In 1962, designer Jim Schindler saw potential in them and joined the arches into the shape of an “M”. This iconic emblem was born and is now recognized by millions worldwide as a symbol of fast and affordable food.

Interesting fact about the Apple logo
The first Apple logo, depicting Newton under an apple tree, was created in 1976 by company co-founder Ronald Wayne. However, in 1977, the now-famous bitten apple logo appeared, designed by graphic designer Rob Janoff. Rob received about $500 for his work — and no royalties, even though the logo became one of the most recognizable in the world.

The world’s first automatic electric kettle
Before 1955, you had to watch the boiling water yourself — look away for a second, and it would spill over. Russell Hobbs solved this problem by releasing the K1 — the world’s first electric kettle with automatic shut-off. The new product quickly conquered British kitchens and then the entire world. What seemed like a simple innovation became a true household revolution and marked the beginning of the smart appliance era no one had even dreamed of.

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.

How Salvador Dalí created the Chupa Chups logo
In 1969, the Spanish artist Salvador Dalí, at the request of Chupa Chups founder Enric Bernat, sketched the idea for the future logo on a newspaper page in less than an hour during a lunch meeting. That was when the famous yellow flower shape with the brand name in the center first appeared. The image proved so successful that it became the basis of the Chupa Chups logo and has remained part of the brand for more than half a century.
