Redesigning the Spotify Logo was a great idea for a logo design video submitted over at www.rebrandeverything.com What do you think of these logos? I tackle the challenge of creating some new options and have made a poll so you can vote for your favourite logo option.
This project is an 'unsolicited rebrand' so all just for some CZcams fun - not affiliated with the company at all 🙃
What do you think of the logo designs? Vote in the POLL!

Number 1 and 4 are clean! 👍
Cheers carbon 👍
i actually love option 5’s dated look; doesn’t matter how old or new the music is- it’s still always good. plus it’s intentionally dated look distinguishes it from other music brands and gives off the type of quirky feel I could see coming from Spotify.
all in all, great job dude :)
Thanks man glad you could see the vision for option 5
I chose 3 cuz I really liked the usage of the headphones.
🎧🎧
I haven't thought that much about the spotify logo, i've never been disturbed about the waves, I don't think they're wonky or irritating. I actually do see what you mean. I just don't agree 😂🙈
That's fair enough! I always like things to be done definitely or not at all, keeps everything looking perfect and clean. But sometimes I think that holds me back as a designer, bit then I just call that 'my style' and everyone's happy haha 😂😂
I like that you always have an option where you slightly modify the original logo, and it's always a strong contender. Number 5 is my favorite out of the new concepts.
Yep it kind of covers all bases! Evolution then re-volution 😉😉
My favorite is either 4 or 5. I don't know, I can't decide
2, 3, and 5 are rockin’! I ultimately chose 3 as my favorite because the use of headphone icons to create the “S” was very well done.
👍 cheers dude 🎧
I think the crookedness makes it look better. Having it straight just looks strange. It's like how the 7-11 logo has a lowercase "n" at the end of the word, gives me the same feeling
Fair enough! I think a lot of people agree with you too 👍
Nah
Brian Collins is a genius, everything he touches is pure gold. I wouldnt change a bit.
👍
Spotify has really upped my music and podcast discovery game! Love 'em! I love that you made the green more warm and friendly and played with creative ideas such as people sharing music. Good point that if done wrong it could look like wifi.
#1 is "Eh, fine enough, but why not be more quirky and inviting for such a deeply creative brand?" I like #4 and #5 best cause the symbols quickly remind me of music and are pretty inviting with some uniqueness. Though font #4 I'd prefer to be even more soft and casual but that's also my personal taste coming through (and to me music discovery and listening is quite a friendly, soft, warm, comforting, exciting, emotional thing).
#5 is friendly and musical but the font though friendly does remind me of a typewriter so I'd change it.
#3 reminds me of electrical fuses or wiring so I prefer it for say an electrician or car mechanic.
I like the togetherness meaning of #2 and friendlier, yellowier green. But if I hadn't heard your explanation I wouldn't have necesarily have looked at it and thought of people relating and sharing, just interesting dots or spots or abstract. I prefer the more obvious music reference of #1, #4, and #5. Green is more relaxing and friendly and emotional (heart chakra color) than green and black.
So my favorites are either #4 (with the warmer green and maybe even softer, friendlier font, and maybe the symbol tweaked to look even less like wifi). Or #5 but all the warmer green (no black) and a warm, friendly, comforting, exciting font that doesn't look like a typewriter.
Another option is to change the color. For example, yellow is the most creative color. Turquoise is the throat chakra color of communication and appeals the most to the most people as if to say there's music and podcasts available here for all tastes. Music can express so many styles, genres, and emotions so is tough to pick a color that describes it or that describes podcasts. But to me black isn't a top choice cause it feels pretty neutral. I'd go with turquoise probably.
I guess Spotify like to stay kind of neutral as different music means different things to different people so they probably see it as a broadly high contrast design, with green having the positive connotations of growth and nature with the deep black there for stability and power. Depends how you look at it I guess 😋
@@RebrandEverything That makes sense too! Great points. The most neutral (and quietly supportive of anything else) color is I think gray...
Option 4 is best
cool video man, nice job with the concepts 👍🏾 my favs are 1 and 5 (maybe without the serif font, looks kinda dated)
Thanks dude, yep I agree 5 was a wildcard, I think it's distinctive though
I find the current logo quite good, but the 3th option looks interesting, I like it ☺️👌
Option 3.
I like the concept behind Option 5, but I love Option 3.
Option 1 and 4 are the best ones.
Another great video!! In my opinion number 1 looks nice because it is familiar without throwing out the old idea. 4 is also bold and new and could definitely work. But my god! Option 3 with the headphones is genius!!! I would have never thought of that idea and something about that font makes it work. Oh, and as a side note, changing the color in option 2 makes it look more like someone puked on it 😬
Haha I likes the headphone idea too! 🤮 Green hahahahahaaaaa
I will go for option 5, but make the font bold as you used in option 1 .
Haha it's funny I normally choose bolder fonts as I love super bold fonts! I just felt like I should try some lighter options too! 👍👍👍
Option 4 and 1,i Just like the wonky logo uwu
Thanks for option 1. I always had problem with those waves. I'll sleep good tonight 😅
Haha hope you enjoyed that sleep safe in the knowledge the Spotify logo has been angled correctly, even if you had to venture to the weird part of CZcams to find it 😂
Wow! This was really difficult, i think the Spotify's actual logo is very good (i didn't notice anything wrong lol 😋) but you have created good altenatives. I like Option 3 and 4... I ended up voting 3 because it's a different concept: the symbol is brilliant and it's a new approach of the work you have been developing. Option 4 is also pretty good, i like the font and the editing that you've made, plus keeping the 'sound waves' concept 🙂
Cheers Ana! Glad you like the options I don't normally like icons within text but i think option 4 is still readable and keeps the recognition of the current logo
Option three is perfect bro, i love the icon, you make an icon that looks like S using Headphones icon and at the last you have won a icon that looks that two people, as you say before looks they are sharing some music. Love it, nice work.
Cheers dude glad you like it
Nicely done. The Spotify logo has always bugged me. 1 is a great fix on the existing. 5 is fave, followed by 3. 4 has stranger things/80s rock vibe to it
Option 3 for me. The headphone formation speaks for itself.
Option 2 is more of an electronics branding and 5 would happen if Google Play competes with Spotify (if with their colors).
I like that google idea👍🎧🎧
Going with #1 but I really do love #3. I personally preferred #3 when it was inside the circle since without it, it looks a bit thin and bland. All of these options are great tho! Amazing work this week
Cheers turbo glad you like the options!
Do a British Airways redesign
It's on the list !
i like the option 4 but with slightly bolder soundwaves
Yeah I'll go with that, they do look a bit thin
design 1 would be my choice , just feel like it keeps with existing brand but evolves at the same time
Yep it's a subtle change for sure
Nice ideas!
Here is what I think about all your options (I'm not a pro at all btw)
1 : It's strange, maybe it's me but to me it look like the waves are a bit tilted to the left (optical illusion or the current logo is printed on my mind as a ref ? dunno)
2 : the logo sounds more like an electronic or numeric brand than an audio one. (the typo is really nice)
3 : it looks a bit strange to me, but I dont know why, maybe if it was the same font than option 2 it would look awesome
4 : I like this one quite a lot, it is bold and a bit edgy, with plenty of brand design possibilities around it
5 : looks like a google brand, using another shape than a triangle could lead to an awesome logo I think.
Anyway, these are critics but all of them are well done !
Thanks this is good to see your perspective on them! Great analysis
Option 1 hands down. The rest don’t really feel right.
Fair enough! 99% of people wouldn’t even notice if they swapped it!!
OMG My suggestion🤩🤩🤩
Thanks for submitting #rebrandgang
4 has a fun idea around but it looks too aggressive. It could benefit from a lighter weighted font.
Yeah I see what you mean, it could be more elegant
I actually like both 3 and 4. With option 3... try replacing the “s” with the icon
I always hesitate to swap an icon for a letter in the main word as I find it often decreases legibility, but it would definitely have been worth a try!
love it #getvizual
Ill forever remember the day my critique made it onto a video 😅😅😅
Ha your comment came through literally as I was in the design phase of this week's vid so it just caught me at the right time to change the path of the options so thought it was worth mentioning as I was flat out about to make 5 options all in circles 😂😂
Thought option 5 was the best
Glad you liked it! I can see that line pattern style being used across adverts and stuff and think it would look pretty cool
3
yes the lines are wonky and thanks for fixing it !
👍👍👍
5
I've always been so irritated by the slight crookedness of the icon...drives me nuts
Honestly, I don't like any. I think the OG logo is fine- the "crookedness" doesn't seem to bother me. It also gives it more aesthetic and looks more unique. Haven't watched you recently but you might remember me.
Hey yep I remember you! Cheers for your feedback 👍
1.
rip spotify
Forever in our hearts 😉
i'm youtuber
Good luck!
I love your videos but I think you should still calm down a bit with all the "push the like button, subscribe" etc. Once at the end of the video is enough, I think. It makes you seems less legit in my eyes, which is a shame because you produce quality content.
I thought it was a requirement to upload on CZcams that you have to keep asking for likes and subscribes??? 😂 Nah just kidding -noted
Agree, you rock! Just wait and the subscribers will come.
I don't mean to be an asshole, but I feel like every logo you made except the first one which basically just fixes the wonky problem, looks a bit tacky and doesn't fit the brand at all. This tends to be a problem with all the redesigns I've seen from you so far. The one that fixes an issue with the original logo looks good and all the other ones just miss the mark completely, when it comes to how the brand wants to present itself.
Fair enough, you're not being an asshole, everyone has their own opinions and that's what makes it interesting.
Yeah no. You really need to go back to school on this stuff.
This together with a lot of your other videos that pop up (thinking the Burger King video), are dreadful re-imaginings. You ruin the very thing you're trying to improve, usually for no reason either.
I never went to school for this stuff in the first place lol
I'm just exploring ideas for the fun of it, not saying any of these companies should make any changes at all 😉👍
No grid at all. Thats not a design project.
The world is my grid 😂😂
