BuzzFeed Logo 2008

BuzzFeed originated in 2006. In the beginning it was a viral lab but soon it turned into a global Internet entertainment and news company.

Having in mind to stick to a simple logo design, the founders opted for a wordmark logo and they still stick to it. The BuzzFeed logo focuses just on the platform’s name. It is red on white and written in different letter cases ‒ the letters “B”, “F” and “D” are in uppercase, and the rest are in lowercase. Though “D” is uppercase, it is the same size as the lowercase letters, which makes the wordmark even catchier and suggests some casualness.
