Funny Logos > 20 Coincidentally Identical Logos – Double Trouble!

Twins, triplets, quadruplets, ok we get it…humans can look alike. Fair enough! But to design logo design that look alike? Sounds more like logo plagiarism…doesn’t it? Now that is one thing no logo designer wants to get implicated in. We all are aware of the menace of logo theft and how designers and companies can get deprived or robbed of their ideas. When you hire logo designer, you expect to get an original and authentic work from him/her.
 

Copying or Inspiration – Where is the thin line?

I still remember the time when renowned cosmetics company, Elizabeth Arden, blatantly copied the ‘believe’ logo for Britney Spears. What was even ironic was the fact that they ripped-off the logo design for a charity organization, Monodonation. No wonder they say, “All is fair in love and war”. Although the cosmetic firm persuaded it was just a coincidence, most people were not ready to accept that. Rigidly following logo design trends is one reason for this menace in the industry. The crux of this conversation is that it is tricky to draw the line between what is considered plagiarism, inspiration or a coincidence.
