Why Logos Keep Getting Flat

How have logos changed over time? The first logos appeared in Ancient Egypt. People back then used hieroglyphics to mark their property. The modern era of logos began in the 19th century. Brands needed to stand out from the crowd somehow, so they added eye-catching colored images to their names.
Over time, logos became more elaborate and sophisticated, some being nothing short of a masterpiece. But in the second half of the 20th century, designers realized that a logo should be clean, catchy, and easy to remember. That’s when brands turned their heads to simplicity… Today we recognize a company by its logo faster than by its name. But what makes a logo successful - going “flat”?

[@anonymouse7394]

As someone that does graphic design as a source of income. I believe you bathe wrong about something... despite minimal logos being simple and easy to remember. They should not be the go to choice for companies. Depending on the type of company, where the logo will be displayed amongst other factors; a 3D logo would be more effective for said company. Static on screen only logos should be flat whilst animated or printed logos would be more attractive if made 3D.

Take a shot every time you see a misinformed comment like this. Do your research. The Firefox browser still has the fox in it's logo.
