Logos vs. Graffiti

     Logos and graffiti. Everyone thinks that those two things are radically different. But, maybe, possibly they are somewhat THE SAME?!?!?!

     Hold on, I'll go slow. First, lets view how they are different, since they obviously are. Logos are used in professional situations, while graffiti is more of a street thing. The colors and overall design of graffiti is very freeform and disorganized. Logos, on the other hand, are crisp and modern, with precise color schemes. There is also the obvious, logos are legal and graffiti is not.

      Now, we're about to get real here. Graffiti and logos are similar in ways that people really don't think about. For example, they both represent something. Think of the software and hardware company Apple. You're thinking of that little white apple, with a bit of the side missing, aren't you? It means something, it represents the company. Graffiti does the same thing. Graffiti can represent the artist, a certain political view, or even a strong message. They are both attempting to get a point across.

      Well, there you go. I'm not entirely sure how to wrap this up, so...
     

       Logos and graffiti....the same and different...yea...
