SAME SAME LOOK


MAYBANK ETIQA TAKAFUL LOGO 2007.
(from their official site, the logo brief)

AMAZON.COM LOGO, 2000-2002 UNTIL PRESENT

Why ah Maybank so blatantly almost plagiarized the Amazon.com logo??? 

Item 1: The font is almost the same (look at the "a")

Item 2: That yellow curve 
(Maybank claims it's because it's their corporate colour, 
fair enough but why treat it so similarly to the Amazon smile???)

Item 3: Maybank not ashamed meh being so blatant, 'copying' the look of such a famous design identity? Kalau copy macam a Bulgarian fishing trade agency punya logo baru orang tak tau kan??????? Aiyoyoh.

  1. i read somewhere, the smile logo amazon also have double meaning, the smile starts from A - Z means they have everything under the roof...

    but sadly just as typical malaysians, we starts from T and stops at Q

  2. "T"ank "Q"ue Ms Shieko Reto for the very insightful comment. What an amazing hidden meaning, much like the arrow in Fed Ex punya logo...
