Where and how can I use it?

SVG format

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 Shell logo is a globally recognized graphic symbol of a bright yellow scallop shell with a red outline. It is based on the emblem of The Shell Transport and Trading Company, which traded shells from East Asia in the 19th century. The current version was designed in 1971 by industrial designer Raymond Loewy. Since then, the shell’s shape has remained virtually unchanged, creating one of the most enduring visual identities in corporate branding. In recent years, Shell has increasingly used the shell symbol without text, reinforcing its international recognition.

Shell plc is one of the world’s largest energy companies, founded in 1907 through the merger of Royal Dutch Petroleum and the British Shell Transport and Trading Company.

It also invests heavily in renewable energy, hydrogen technologies, and EV charging infrastructure. The company operates in over 70 countries and is a leading player in the global energy transition, maintaining a strong focus on technological development and sustainable growth.

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 did the McDonald’s logo come about?

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.

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.

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