Today the marketing industry is a multi-billion dollar entity that spends countless man-hours designing and maintaining relatable brand logos. That’s why the work of pop-culture artist, Bruce Yan, is so cool. He takes characters we all know and love and uses them to recreate logos we see every day, somehow managing to give rise to a brand new and yet completely familiar logo. From the Girl Scout symbol to Morton Salt, take a look at his clever redesigns after the jump!
▼ “Ghibli Scouts”
▼ “Astro Big Boy Burgers”
▼ “Regular Blue Jay” (from Regular Show)
▼ John Deere God
▼ Kiki and Jiji in the Hawaiian Airlines logo.
▼ Charlie Brown as the BIC pen mascot.
▼ Ariel, Sebastian, and Flotsam and Jetsam as the Starbucks logo.
▼ Bugs Bunny as the Playboy logo.
▼ Our favorite one! Morton Salt Totoro and friends.
You can actually buy Bruce Yan’s artwork over at Gallery 1988, though many of his pieces are unfortunately sold out. At least we can all admire his creative works!
