Hello Friend,
This month we dug through the archives and are re-sharing some design-specific posts...
First up—the Easter Egg... and not the hard boiled kind. However you define it: inside joke, hidden message, or secret feature, Easter Eggs are a fun part of design. Some are meant to be obvious to everyone. A couple great examples are the FedEx and Amazon logos. There’s an arrow embedded in the carrier’s logo and that swoosh in the retailer’s logo isn’t just a simple smile—Amazon really does seem to carry everything from A to Z. These are meaningful Easter Eggs, meant for everyone.
But it’s not just logos. You can find them in publications, on cars, in films, online, in video games...
