There is a thin line between freshening up your design, and taking a step backwards with a redesign.&nbsp; Sometimes a redesign can be subtle and simple, and other times it can be a huge re-vamp of a company and it’s goals. Here’s a look at some of my favourite <strong>re-designs</strong> in no particular order.</p> <h4>01. AT&amp;T Inc.</h4> <p>This is an ideal example of how a subtle upgrade can make a huge difference.</p> <p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-462" title="Great redesigns | function design blog" src="http://wefunction.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/redesign_1.jpg" height="230" alt="Great redesigns | function design blog" width="490" /></p> <h4>02.

A huge improvement!</p> <p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-463" title="Great redesigns | function design blog" src="http://wefunction.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/redesign_2.jpg" height="230" alt="Great redesigns | function design blog" width="490" /></p> <h4>03. Sprint</h4> <p>Looking at the old sprint logo it’s obvious a re-design was needed.</p> <p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-464" title="Great redesigns | function design blog | sprint logo" src="http://wefunction.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/redesign_3.jpg" height="230" alt="Great redesigns | function design blog | sprint logo" width="490" /></p> <h4>04.&nbsp; Mindshare</h4> <p>A great find via <a href="http://www.underconsideration.com/brandnew/archives/spinning_wheels.php" title="Opinions on corporate and brand identity work">Brand New</a>. Great use of colours &amp; typography.</p> <p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-465" title="Great redesigns | function design blog | mindshare logo" src="http://wefunction.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/redesign_4.jpg" height="230" alt="Great redesigns | function design blog | mindshare logo" width="490" /></p> <h4>05.

Fiat Bravo</h4> <p>Yeah that’s right, a car made it into the list. A great example of a successful redesign, and Fiat’s recent sales figures prove it. Plus I drive this car, so a very biased choice!</p> <p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-466" title="Great redesigns | function design blog | fiat bravo" src="http://wefunction.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/redesign_10.jpg" height="230" alt="Great redesigns | function design blog | fiat bravo" width="490" /></p> <h4>11.

Applebee’s</h4> <p>Great example of a redesign where the concept stays similar but the execution is on a completely different level.</p> <p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-466" title="Great redesigns | function design blog | applebee's" src="http://wefunction.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/redesign_12.jpg" height="230" alt="Great redesigns | function design blog | applebee's" width="490" /></p> <h4>13. Firefox / Firebird</h4> <p>A name change, and a great leap forward. Time really is a healer.</p> <p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-466" title="Great redesigns | function design blog | firefox" src="http://wefunction.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/redesign_13.jpg" height="230" alt="Great redesigns | function design blog | firefox" width="490" /></p> <h4>14. QVC</h4> <p>A huge Brand, and a major revamp. And a much needed one.</p> <p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-466" title="Great redesigns | function design blog | qvc" src="http://wefunction.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/redesign_14.jpg" height="230" alt="Great redesigns | function design blog | qvc" width="490" /></p> <h4>15. Vauxhall</h4> <p>A UK car maker with a new, more prominent identity. I like the old one, its clean and not much is wrong with it. But the new logo reflects more on a new company direction and style of their cars.</p> <p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-466" title="Great redesigns | function design blog | vauxhall" src="http://wefunction.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/redesign_15.jpg" height="230" alt="Great redesigns | function design blog | vauxhall" width="490" /></p> <h4>16. MSNBC</h4> <p>A fresher look, more open and less in your face. Works well I’d say!</p> <p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-466" title="Great redesigns | function design blog | msnbc" src="http://wefunction.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/redesign_16.jpg" height="230" alt="Great redesigns | function design blog | msnbc" width="490" /></p> <h4>17. Ford</h4> <p>Yep, more cars related stuff.

Ford Fiesta</h4> <p>Sticking with Ford, their new style Fiesta really is a beauty.</p> <p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-466" title="Great redesigns | function design blog | ford fiesta" src="http://wefunction.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/redesign_18.jpg" height="230" alt="Great redesigns | function design blog | ford fiesta" width="490" /></p> <h4>19. The BBC</h4> <p>One of the most recognizable UK brands, good job it looks great then.</p> <p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-466" title="Great redesigns | function design blog | bbc" src="http://wefunction.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/redesign_19.jpg" height="230" alt="Great redesigns | function design blog | bbc" width="490" /></p> <h4>20. Direct TV</h4> <p>The same concept, shape and fonts. Just better.</p> <p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-466" title="Great redesigns | function design blog | direct tv" src="http://wefunction.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/redesign_20.jpg" height="230" alt="Great redesigns | function design blog | direct tv" width="490" /></p> <h4>21. Barack Obama</h4> <p>What a difference a year makes. The 2007 site compared to the ‘08. Probably one of the best website re-designs around right now.</p> <p><a href="http://www.barackobama.com/" title="Barack obama"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-466" title="Great redesigns | function design blog | barack obama" src="http://wefunction.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/redesign_21.jpg" height="460" alt="Great redesigns | function design blog | barack obama" width="490" /></a></p> <h4>22. Grooveshark</h4> <p><a href="http://www.dache.ch/" title="David pache, so much more than a logo designer">David Pache</a>, this guy knows how to redesign a brand identity.</p> <p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-466" title="Great redesigns | function design blog | grooveshark" src="http://wefunction.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/redesign_22.jpg" height="230" alt="Great redesigns | function design blog | grooveshark" width="490" /></p> <h4>23. BusinessWeek</h4> <p>Simpler, Bolder, Cleaner. A successful redesign in my book.</p> <p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-466" title="Great redesigns | function design blog | businessweek" src="http://wefunction.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/redesign_23.jpg" height="230" alt="Great redesigns | function design blog | businessweek" width="490" /></p> <h4>24. Viget Labs</h4> <p>It is amazing how far we’ve all come in terms of web design in just a few years, <a href="http://www.viget.com/" title="Viget labs">Viget</a> is a great example of this.</p> <p><a href="http://www.viget.com/" title="Viget labs redesign"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-466" title="Great redesigns | function design blog | viget labs" src="http://wefunction.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/redesign_24.jpg" height="460" alt="Great redesigns | function design blog | viget labs" width="490" /></a></p> <h4>25. Toys”R”Us</h4> <p>A much more playful typeface and colour scheme. I found this via a great article on Logo Design Love: <a href="http://www.logodesignlove.com/10-successful-logo-redesigns">10 Sucessful Logo redesigns</a>.</p> <p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-466" title="Great redesigns | function design blog | toysrus" src="http://wefunction.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/redesign_25.jpg" height="230" alt="Great redesigns | function design blog | toysrus" width="490" /></p> <h4>26. Seat Leon</h4> <p>The old model wasn’t hideous, it’s only after you see the new model you start to believe it is. A truly amazing revamp, hats off to Seat design team!</p> <p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-466" title="Great redesigns | function design blog | seat leon" src="http://wefunction.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/redesign_26.jpg" height="230" alt="Great redesigns | function design blog | seat leon" width="490" /></p> <h4>27.

The BBC website</h4> <p>Words cannot describe how much I hated the old design. The new site really is something for the BBC to be proud of.</p> <p><a href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/" title="N design studio redesign"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-466" title="Great redesigns | function design blog | the bbc website" src="http://wefunction.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/redesign_28.jpg" height="460" alt="Great redesigns | function design blog | the bbc website" width="490" /></a></p> <h4>29. Wordpress.org</h4> <p>A much more engaging and approachable design from Wordpress.</p> <p><a href="http://www.wordpress.org/" title="Wordpress.org redesign"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-466" title="Great redesigns | function design blog | wordpress.org" src="http://wefunction.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/redesign_29.jpg" height="460" alt="Great redesigns | function design blog | wordpress.org" width="490" /></a></p> <h4>30. Microsoft</h4> <p>Making something out of nothing, and doing it well. Microsoft.</p> <p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-466" title="Great redesigns | function design blog | microsoft" src="http://wefunction.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/redesign_30.jpg" height="230" alt="Great redesigns | function design blog | microsoft" width="490" /></p> <h4>31. MailChimp</h4> <p>I dare you to find a better looking mascot. A huge improvement, but a much needed one I must say, the new chimp really does have that “cute-factor”</p> <p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-466" title="Great redesigns | function design blog | mailchimp" src="http://wefunction.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/redesign_31.jpg" height="230" alt="Great redesigns | function design blog | mailchimp" width="490" /></p> <h4>32. CNET</h4> <p>A subtle update, and you know I love subtle. Beautiful end result.</p> <p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-466" title="Great redesigns | function design blog | cnet" src="http://wefunction.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/redesign_32.jpg" height="230" alt="Great redesigns | function design blog | cnet" width="490" /></p> <h4>33. Wembley Stadium</h4> <p>When updating something so Iconic, you need to make something just as iconic. I’d say a job well done on this one.</p> <p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-466" title="Great redesigns | function design blog | wembley stadium" src="http://wefunction.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/redesign_33.jpg" height="230" alt="Great redesigns | function design blog | wembley stadium" width="490" /></p> <h4>34. Apple iPod</h4> <p>Advanced technologies and production methods sure do look good.</p> <p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-466" title="Great redesigns | function design blog | apple ipod" src="http://wefunction.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/redesign_34.jpg" height="230" alt="Great redesigns | function design blog | apple ipod" width="490" /></p> <h4>35. The Simpsons</h4> <p>Right? Now you’re including cartoons… This list is crazy! Maybe so, but this has to go down as the redesign I’m most glad of.</p> <p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-466" title="Great redesigns | function design blog | the simpsons" src="http://wefunction.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/redesign_35.jpg" height="230" alt="Great redesigns | function design blog | the simpsons" width="490" /></p> <h4>36. XBOX</h4> <p>A new direction with the XBOX design, colours shapes etc are a huge leap in the right direction.</p> <p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-466" title="Great redesigns | function design blog | xbox 360" src="http://wefunction.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/redesign_36.jpg" height="230" alt="Great redesigns | function design blog | xbox" width="490" /></p> <h4>37. Design Shard</h4> <p>With a growing blog it’s important to design for the needs of your visitors. Max does a great job here on <a href="http://www.designshard.com/" title="Design shard | stunning blog redesign">Design Shard</a>.</p> <p><a href="http://www.designshard.com/"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-466" title="Great redesigns | function design blog | design shard" src="http://wefunction.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/redesign_37.jpg" height="460" alt="Great redesigns | function design blog | design shard" width="490" /></a></p> <h4>38. KFC</h4> <p>Colonel Sanders is looking better in his old age. A cleaner look.</p> <p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-466" title="Great redesigns | function design blog | kfc" src="http://wefunction.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/redesign_38.jpg" height="230" alt="Great redesigns | function design blog | kfc" width="490" /></p> <h4>39. Walmart</h4> <p>A more modern feel to a logo which was showing its age.</p> <p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-466" title="Great redesigns | function design blog | walmart" src="http://wefunction.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/redesign_39.jpg" height="230" alt="Great redesigns | function design blog | walmart" width="490" /></p> <h4>40. Envato</h4> <p>A sleeker looking logo really can help kick off your re-branding.</p> <p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-466" title="Great redesigns | function design blog | envato" src="http://wefunction.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/redesign_40.jpg" height="230" alt="Great redesigns | function design blog | envato" width="490" /></p> <h4>41. Best Buy</h4> <p>A logo which is more fitting to the company &amp; its products.</p> <p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-466" title="Great redesigns | function design blog | best buy" src="http://wefunction.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/redesign_41.jpg" height="230" alt="Great redesigns | function design blog | best buy" width="490" /></p> <h4>42. Macmillan</h4> <p>A great bold move by MacMillan Cancer care charity, but one that works really well and a very recognizable brand now.</p> <p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-466" title="Great redesigns | function design blog | macmillan" src="http://wefunction.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/redesign_42.jpg" height="230" alt="Great redesigns | function design blog | macmillan" width="490" /></p> <h4>43. Holiday Inn</h4> <p>Quite possibly my favourite, something about this is just so welcoming. Which is good for a Hotel company right!</p> <p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-466" title="Great redesigns | function design blog | holiday inn" src="http://wefunction.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/redesign_43.jpg" height="230" alt="Great redesigns | function design blog | holiday inn" width="490" /></p> <h4>44. British Telecom</h4> <p>I have no idea what that guy is blowing into, and I don’t want to know. Needless to say the new logo represents a more dynamic company, with more to offer than just horn blowing.</p> <p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-466" title="Great redesigns | function design blog | british telecom" src="http://wefunction.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/redesign_44.jpg" height="230" alt="Great redesigns | function design blog | british telecom" width="490" /></p> <h4>45. Vicks</h4> <p>The old logo very possibly was made in MS Word. You’d struggle to make the new one in Word, so I like it!</p> <p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-466" title="Great redesigns | function design blog | vicks" src="http://wefunction.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/redesign_45.jpg" height="230" alt="Great redesigns | function design blog | vicks" width="490" /></p> <h4>46. Fuel Your Creativity</h4> <p><a href="http://www.fuelyourcreativity.com/">Adelle</a> really has put a lot of thought into her new logo, and it really has paid off. The new logo has a much more lasting impact.</p> <p><a href="http://www.fuelyourcreativity.com/"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-466" title="Great redesigns | function design blog | fuel your creativity logo redesign" src="http://wefunction.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/redesign_46.jpg" height="230" alt="Great redesigns | function design blog | fuel your creativity logo redesign" width="490" /></a></p> <h4>47. Amazon</h4> <p>For an online store like Amazon the old logo didn’t really fit. The updated version looks better in both web and print.</p> <p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-466" title="Great redesigns | function design blog | amazon logo redesign" src="http://wefunction.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/redesign_47.jpg" height="230" alt="Great redesigns | function design blog | amazon logo redesign" width="490" /></p> <h4>48. Virgin Media</h4> <p>Not really a redesign, more of a buy-out and brand build. Never-the less it was a refreshing moment for customers like myself!</p> <p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-466" title="Great redesigns | function design blog | virgin media" src="http://wefunction.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/redesign_48.jpg" height="230" alt="Great redesigns | function design blog | virgin media" width="490" /></p> <h4>49. Macbook Pro</h4> <p>Top to bottom glass front, one solid aluminium base and you’ve got yourself a pretty Macbook Pro.</p> <p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-466" title="Great redesigns | function design blog | macbook pro" src="http://wefunction.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/redesign_49.jpg" height="230" alt="Great redesigns | function design blog | macbook pro" width="490" /></p> <h4>50. HP</h4> <p>I’ve not actually seen this used anywhere but adverts. But I really like it!</p> <p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-466" title="Great redesigns | function design blog | hp" src="http://wefunction.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/redesign_50.jpg" height="230" alt="Great redesigns | function design blog | hp" width="490" /></p> <h4>Sources of Information</h4> <p>Below is some of the sites and blogs I used for research on this post, along the way I found some great resources and inspirations.</p> <h3>Brand New</h3> <p>Without doubt a lot of these have already been covered by <a href="http://www.underconsideration.com/brandnew/">Brand New</a>, a wonderful project by <a href="http://www.underconsideration.com/">UnderConsideration</a> which I urge you all to add to your <a href="http://www.underconsideration.com/brandnew/index.xml">RSS feed</a> and start to follow. The content really is amazing, and if you love the logo’s I’ve featured above you’ll love it for sure.</p> <h3>Logo Design Love</h3> <p>As I’ve already mentioned there is a fantastic post on Logo Design Love which you might also find interesting <a href="http://www.logodesignlove.com/10-successful-logo-redesigns">“10 Sucessful Logo redesigns</a>“. The logo design Love website is well worth checking out for various posts on Logos and Brands on a regular basis.</p> <h3>Identity Works</h3> <p>Another great resource which documents the process of various redesigns and their goals from 1998 onwards was <a href="http://www.identityworks.com/">Identity Works</a>. A really great site to explore and find out about the history of the brand identities.</p> <h4>Further Reading</h4> <p>After all of these great examples of a successful redesign you may be feeling in the mood to give your website, blog or logo etc a redesign. But it is important you think carefully before rushing into a redesign, this wonderful article by Steven Snell looks over <a href="http://vandelaydesign.com/blog/design/redesign-process/" title=" 21 factors to consider before a redesign">21 Factors to Consider Before a Redesign</a> and really does give some sensible advice and tips for anyone looking to freshen up their design.</p>Fri, 31 Oct
