SPACE CASE-EP. 225 (The Case of the Pepsi Logo, 125 Years of Rebrands, and the Launch of Starry)

For 125 years, Pepsi has been a staple in the food and beverage space and remained one of America’s most iconic brands. From their presence at the Super Bowl, to celebrity endorsements, to international publicity stunts, they’ve done it all. However, they’ve not always stuck the landing on logo and public identity rebrands. This year, they’ve changed their logo and type-face once again, and we weigh in on what we think about it AND chat about their biggest logo controversies of yesteryear. PLUS, the death of Sierra Mist and the birth of Starry.
