Christmas Banner
Like every year, 2008 also witnessed redesigned versions of many company logos; some were for the better while some turned out to be hopeless. You all will agree that “A redesign can be worth, if you get it right”, after all, a logo is the most important part of any corporate identity.

Therefore, with the year 2008 ending, Graphic Design Blog takes the opportunity to bring up some of the major redesigns of the year. As always there were winners and losers, but I want you all to share your opinions telling which redesign you think made up till the mark.

Here are some of the major re-designs of the year and remember I do not claim them to be the best redesigns, so better watch them carefully and feel free to give your word. Let’s get started…

Happy New Year!

With so many brands around, every occasion and festival seems to be overly commercialized and now when Christmas time is here, we see every brand putting in effort to wish Merry Christmas to all the people around the globe.

Therefore, this year I also thought to compile some of the best Christmas ads, which have been always adding joy to our Christmas by offering words that amplify this seasons’ true meaning.
I hope you enjoy this collection of advertisments and if I’ve missed your favorite, let me know.

So folks, which advertisement you think wished the Christmas in the most creative and appealing manner. If you ask me, I was touched by the concept of “Child Hope” which reminds us of so many children who cannot cherish the Christmas celebrations.

With this deep thought, I would like to wish all my readers a Merry Christmas and may this festival bring abundant joy and happiness in your life…Cheeers!
