Planned Parenthood logo and symbol, meaning, history, PNG
- From the one hand, these elements can be regarded as two “P’s” (the initials of the organization’s name).
- In this case, it’s interesting that the line of the smaller “p” is cut, not finished.
- Typographical part of the symbol Flexo Bold is the name of the type featured on the logo.
- For instance, if you take a look at the “e” on the logo, you’ll notice that its end is somewhat shorter than that in the original font.
- Keeping this fact in mind, you may also notice many letters both on the source font and the logo have similar “cut” ends.
- While this is especially visible in case of the “l,” you may notice that the “a” and “d” are also shorter than average.
- Interpretations of the emblem The fact invites a variety of interpretations.
- Critics will establish a symbolic link with the abortion (Planned Parenthood is the largest single provider of abortions in the U.S.), while supporters will regard it as a broader symbol of anything that has to do with birth control and cite the words of Megan Crepeau of the Chicago Tribune, who called Planned Parenthood the country’s “largest abortion preventer.” Font What about Flexo Bold itself?
- The geometric sans serif font family Flexo was developed by Ben Blom in 2011 and released by the Durotype type foundry.
- According to the company, it’s its most successful font (MyFonts Most Popular Fonts of 2012).
- Also, the authors claim the main feature of the type is the combination of “mathematical straightforwardness and humanistic refinement.” This is a squarish font, which is specifically noticeable in the structure of the “o’s” and “d’s.” The font family includes a variety of weights.
- If you want to reproduce it, you may try the shade with the following coordinates: hex: #1775C2 or RGB: 23/117/194.
- We should also point out that the palette can be slightly different.
- Also, here, the palette of the Planned Parenthood logo is reversed: the background is dark blue, while the letters are white.
