Trivia but true. The logo for the 7-Eleven stores in Taiwan, and maybe worldwide, contains a major major but cute mistake. Can you find it?
HINT: you must go to the store and look. Or see logo on Internet site.
I dunno
It’s upside down ?
It’s the wrong colour ?
The ‘N’ is lower case while the rest is upper case ?
it looks like this :
?
The ‘V’ is always misprounced ?
The ‘N’ is lower case while the rest is upper case.
Sir, you got sharp eyes! So quick. Yes. I never noticed until a local elementary kid asked me why? Smart kiddies here.
Now the bigger quest is why?
I guess because ‘n’ fits in the space better, a ‘N’ has more vertical strokes and would need to be wider to still look like a ‘N’ without looking like a solid block. And a bit fat N wider than the other letters at the end wouldn’t look symetrical
Probably a marketing ploy, like misspelling words e.g. “tonite” so people will take notice. Funny though, since you mentioned it. I never noticed!
Then it can’t be too good of a marketing ply, eh?
Any explaination for the B and Q in BenQ? Someone told me it stands for “Bringing Enjoyment and Quality to Life.” But that, to me, would suggest a logo that looks like this:
BEnQ
???
I like those “Easy Your Life” slogans in front of that coffee shop chain.
I don’t believe there are any accidents in the creation of logos. These things are very carefully thought over. I think the rounded “n” simply looks softer that a capital letter would.
You can probably copyright or register as a trademark their version but not the “correct” version.
