    Looks like Pentagram partner ripped off Logo Archive. Not a good look.

    • Mmmmmmmmm yeaAQUTE
    • show me a logo and I'll show you 10 that already exist that are similar_niko
    • Well yeah, but that's *too* similar.evilpeacock
    • I mean it's no excuse for a company like Pentagram, but is there a database that allows you to search trademarks or more broadly any icon/logo?_niko
    • Good use for ai ^scarabin
    • Google image search? I remember once I closed a logo for client. After the call I went to awwwards and winner of the day had almost identical logo markdpi
    • Dpi what did you do? Ethically you created it honestly but once you bumped into an identical logo did you change it?_niko
    • Only if they need to trademark it and it's possible to have simlar logos if they are different companies in different industriesgrafician
    • DAAAMN lolsted
    • @_niko yes there are tools for that.
      damn this is bad.

    • Maybe do more than squares and circles, actually draw something, then you can be unique. They didn’t have this problem in the 1800’sshapesalad
    • @shapesalad that's a weird thing in graphic design, i wouldn't be sure about that.
      there are books collecting ancient shapes from asia to the americans

    • there is a chance that you will find this form in those. which obviously means nothing if you are trying to copy a contemporary work.sted
    • they got all the resources to do the proper research and yet here we are.sted
    • Making something unique should be a fundamental goal.sted
    • Yeah, you fucking hacks. Draw something that works at the size of a postage stamp and on the side of a building because that's how it worked 200 years ago.face_melter
