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.

Paula Scher redesigns the corporate identity for Bausch + Lomb

“…The new identity by Paula Scher deftly shifts the focus to incorporate the company’s commitment to eye health care and its pharmaceutical and surgical divisions. The previous Bausch + Lomb logo (internally known as “pathways”) represented the science of lenses with a graphic element that suggested angles of refraction. In the new identity, the ampersand becomes a transparent medical plus sign that conveys that Bausch + Lomb is open and committed to partnering with the medical community…” —Pentagram

And why spinach?

Segar chose the vegetable due to an 1870 German study which claimed it contained the same amount of iron as red meat.

The strength-giving properties of spinach were later revised however, after it was found a stray decimal point had led researchers to believe the vegetable contained ten times its actual iron content. (via guardian uk)
