NPR logo and symbol, meaning, history, PNG
- Download PNG NPR Logo PNG Although the NPR logo has always been built around the three letters of the radio network’s name, each emblem has been different due to the choice of the key design theme, font, and color palette.
- Meaning and history 1971 – 1983 The earliest NPR logotype was introduced in 1971.
- That was the year when National Public Radio replaced the National Educational Radio Network and NPR was actually born.
- The logo looked unique and stylish due to the combination of the unusual typeface and the image.
- It consisted of a stylized depiction of a microphone and the name of the company given in a sleek lowercase typeface.
- Its main advantage was probably the fact that the idea of radio waves was now visualized creating a better link between the logo and the field where the company worked.
- As if to make the matters worse, the authors decided to “decipher” each of the letters, thus making the logotype unsuitable for smaller surfaces.
- 1998 – Today In 1998 the radio network adopted a completely new emblem, which has been in use ever since.
- The logo is comprised of three squares in a row, each housing a letter (“n”, “r”, and “p”).
- Font Simple and clean, the typeface featured in the National Public Radio logo is still visually appealing.
- Each letter of the sans-serif lowercase type reads perfectly.
- The similarity of the upper curves of the “n”, “r”, and “p” creates a visual link between the letters.
- Alternatively, the NPR logo may be used in a slightly brighter version, where more vivid shades of blue and red are used instead of the regular colors.
- For instance, this version is used in the NPR Music logotype.
