Logos are meant to be simple, clear, and instantly recognizable. But sometimes, a design can unintentionally take on a meaning its creators never intended. Take this image, for example—at first glance, it’s a clever and heartwarming visual metaphor: music brings people together. But look again, and you might see something much darker.
It makes me wonder—was this ever a real logo? Did it make it through the design process without someone saying, “Wait a second… this could be interpreted very differently”? While its origins remain a mystery, one thing is certain: it’s a fascinating example of how design can be open to interpretation.
What do you see first—the power of music, or an accidental design fail?
