Happy Summer Solstice from Google & Murakami
When Google first started doing creative variations of their logo, I always found myself looking forward to the next one. However, I'd have to say that as the years went by, I found myself becoming more and more disappointed with the logo integrations.
Yesterday, was a different story. To celebrate summer solstice, Google mashed up its logo with Takashi Murakami's art. I once travelled 400+ miles to see a Murakami exhibit so I was naturally enthused to find that Google did Murakami justice by doing an excellent job on the logo integration. Tech + art! What more can a girl ask for?
