I think the fixation on the Google page is a bit extreme.

Who cares if someone likes or dislikes the logo ? its personal taste. what you should be asking is , does it serve its purpose?

A logo’s design should identify the company to users who cannot read or speak the language – if any child who couldn’t read saw the Mc Donalds logo, they KNOW its McDonalds.

Same goes for google – You KNOW its google without having to read it. It works because the design identifies the brand, (like IBM, Meryll Lynch, Apple’s logos) without speaking or directly telling you – its a ‘visual landmark’, literally.

I agree “The web is not suffering from a lack of canonical design. Itâ€™s just that canonical design on the web isnâ€™t as glamorous as some want it to be.”

Google’s new favicon as precursor to new interface update? Even if Google’s interface would change – at the end the current one works because the users get best search results by using the search engine with the “lousy” logo.

“The most widely used userinterface of the 21st century is a single text box with a submit button.”
No grafics, no colors – amazing

So, as a designer, do I worry that Google has a lousy logo? Noâ€¦and I donâ€™t think many web designers do. Most web designers know that the value of Google is in its utility, not its appearance. Can it still be canonical? Absolutely. Absolutely, I dont worry too. Oyunlar

The Vignelli map is a hideous monstrosity that manages to plagiarize Beckâ€™s wonderful London map while stripping it of any elegance. and to add to your points, i think itâ€™s safe to say most of the time, what pleases the designerati community doesnâ€™t actually coincide with what the real users are looking for. That certainly doesnâ€™t mean thing has to be ugly to be able to succeed, just that visual design in web, as much as we like to disagree, maybe a tad bit overrated. sohbet ArkadaÅŸ
