The classic MTV logo sort of gets a redesign. A newly cropped design removes the tagline which emphasizes that the brand represents “music television.” This is the first official logo redesign for the brand in 29 years.

The Heinz ketchup condiment packet gets a redesign.
“…A true packaging breakthrough, the Heinz Dip & Squeeze dual-function package gives ketchup lovers two ways to enjoy Heinz Ketchup: either peel back the lid for easy dipping, or tear off the tip to squeeze onto favorite foods…The new Heinz Dip & Squeeze product marks the first ketchup packet makeover for the foodservice industry in 42 years. In the past, on-the-go eaters have struggled to open multiple ketchup packets while worrying about making a mess…” —from Heinz Ketchup press release

AIGA Design Archives, Feature Collection

Vignelli Associates collection
The anticipated redesign for the AIGA Design Archives, designed by Second Story Interactive Studios, has launched. We’ll have to take some more time browsing the archives, but we are excited to see how far back in time some of the collections go. AIGA has also posted a case study to learn more about the development process and design behind the revamped, substantial design resource. The expansive collections provide something for everyone, from A Decade of Sports Graphics (1987-96) to Fifty Advertisements of the Year (1973). There is plenty of book cover design eye candy too.
