IBM "Professional Grade"

An article I was reading the other day pointed me to Mario Amaya's blog, a graphic designer from Brazil. Though I don't speak Spanish the content is easy to appreciate. What he's done is taken two major brands/corporations & blends their logo's together. It's a simple & fun idea that was very well done.

It's kind of like those Brain Age puzzles where the word is blue but it is written in red font. Your brain knows something isn't right, but it is hard to put your finger on exactly what. My personal favorites are Google/Coke & Unilever / Unix.

It's ok that you don't speak Spanish. Mario probably doesn't either. That webpage is in Portuguese.

Patrick Dunphy:

Thanks for the correction. I'll state that I speak neither Spanish or Portuguese. :)

Actually I speak Spanish, but I'm too lazy to write a trilingual blog...
The introductory logo mashup posting is mainly in English to make things smoother for the many international visitors.
Thanks for the link and comment. :-)
