Applebees logo and symbol, meaning, history, PNG
- Download PNG Applebees Logo PNG The first Applebees logo, which appeared in 1980, featured the company’s original name, T.J. Applebee’s Rx for Edibles and Elixirs.
- By 1986, it was replaced by a more appealing design sporting the red apple that has been the logotype’s visual center ever since.
- The new color scheme looked by far brighter than the previous one, especially the red outline, which created an eye-catching contrast with the leaf.
- This version of the logo looked very close to that of the Apple company.
- One could notice similarities not only in the shapes and the position of the leaf and the apple, but even in the typeface.
- 1980 – 1986 The very first logo for a famous restaurant chain was introduced in 1980, featured a stylized green lettering pen closed in a red and white geometric frame, with the white “For Edibles & Elixirs” tagline in all capitals of a traditional sans-serif typeface tagline cup placed on a thick bottom part of the framing.
- 1986 – 2007 The redesign of 1986 brought the graphical symbol, which became iconic throughout the years — a red apple placed slightly diagonally over a dark green banner with a white stylized inscription on it.
- 2014 – 2017 The redesign of 2014 turned the light green lettering into a black one and refined the typeface to a classy and sleek serif, with some lines elongated and slightly curved.
- The new red and black combination of colors in the Applebees logo looked very elegant and timeless, especially when placed on a white background.
- Written in the uppercase letters of a string and slightly narrowed sans-serif typeface, the tagline added professionalism and stability to a stylish iconic badge.
- The person who voiced the Apple in 2007 was the American actress and writer Wanda Sykes.
- In 2012, the advertising campaign was narrated by Jason Sudeikis.
- Gone is the bright, almost neon red outline, because of which the apple looked so vivid and joyous.
- The leaf went red, like the apple, so the number of colors in the palette was reduced.
