These design examples are really interesting to me. I would hazard a guess that these types of designs are only popular right now because they are common among rapid design software packages/subscriptions used by companies who don’t want to hire real designers. I don’t think the styles are inherently bad but they certainly are lazy.
Corporations just seem to be getting more and more abstract… Here’s my ✨ amazing ✨ (non-complete) list:
Corporate Memphis is just the worst. I dunno why but it gives me heavy dystopian connotations.
It kooks like children were forced to design corporate logos in ms paint.
Firefox still has the fox:

X was ahead of the game, but now everyone is quickly jumping onboard. I’ll be changing my username to ‘s’ as soon as I finish typing this. /s

The google redesign was the worst. I still haven’t gotten used to it and doubt I ever will.
The new logos are an acessibility nightmare. How does a stupid and unnecessary redesign like this gets approved?
Those logos were so good.
