Freeing the Siren: A Look at the Starbucks Brand Evolution
Mike Peck, Starbucks’ Senior Design Manager
It’s a daunting task to make even minor modifications to a well-known global brand like Starbucks. So you can imagine that there’s quite a story behind actually removing the words Starbucks and Coffee from the logo. Mike Peck, Senior Design Manager of Starbucks Global Creative will walk you through the evolution of the brand from the first strategic conversations to the final packaging applications. Although not an entirely “new” logo, it is a large leap into the future for the growing and increasingly globally-focused coffee company.
