The Greatest Brandversations

 

Stefan Asafti, a real talented graphic designer from Romania, has switched the slogans of the great brands of the modern world amongst themselves. The goal of this being to give them further meaning and to create a sort of a confusion. It is surprising how logos can influence other logos. The truth is that each pair of rivals has something in common, that something which has helped them to build one identity upon the other, this way becoming the biggest brands.

Pepsi vs Coca Cola

 

Apple vs Microsoft

 

Firefox vs Internet Explorer

 

McDonald’s vs Burger King

 

Nikon vs Canon

As he says “This project mostly approaches the visual “conversations” between the company logos and the ways that they influence each other, hence the name of the project, Brandversations. It is a parallel between the modern and the old, some of the slogans dating back to the 40s and 50s.”
