Bridgestone logo and symbol, meaning, history, PNG
- Meaning and history 1931 – 1940 The original Bridgestone logo showcased the name of the brand paired with an emblem.
- The emblem included the letters “BS” inside an intricate shape that symbolized the “bridgestone” from the company’s name.
- This made the wordmark better legible without sacrificing its classic style with serifs.
- The “stone” symbol adopted a yellow background, while the outlines became red.
- 1977 – 1980 The symbol disappeared, while the name of the brand was italicized.
- 1980 – 1984 While the previous logo looked dynamic and legible, it lacked a unique touch.
- They introduced a black triangle to the left of the wordmark and added black shades to the letters.
- In a way, the wordmark was now reminiscent of a truck.
- The top of the “B” was colored red.
- For one, this helped to shape the “triangle” below.
- Also, it added a vivid accent to the otherwise monochrome design.
- Font In 1950, the original serif types were replaced by the custom sans inspired by the shape of natural stone.
- Since 1984, the wordmark has gone through two dynamic custom typefaces.
- Eventually, in 1984, the Bridgestone logo adopted a red accent making the design more vivid.
