A logo is company’s visual identity as long as it remains in the business. With time as our cultural values evolve, the underline meaning gets eroded and people find it difficult to interpret it. Some companies give the logo an intentional twist so that it doesn’t remain easy to guess in any way. Some do it to pay homage to their past and to remember exactly how they managed to get into any particular business. It could also be to rejuvenate our conscience or make it more interesting. Following are some logos with some sort of hidden message.
