With Tesla constantly in the news at the moment (this time for yet another Cybertruck design disaster), it seems like an appropriate time to revive one of our very favourite logo design stories ever. It was a few years ago when we first spied a hilarious tweet comparing the Tesla logo to something extremely unintended. (It could also be noted that back then it was actually a tweet and not a whatever-it's-called-now. We had no idea just how pertinent even that would become in this context.)
I don't mean to keep you in suspense, but I do think the context of what's happened as time has passed since then just adds to the irony of what I'm about to say. Elon Musk is now firmly tied up with the president who has done the most to reverse reproductive rights – and the logo of his company still looks so much like a contraceptive device. Yup, it looks exactly like an IUD (and not one of the best logos ever). If you've never noticed, it's a brilliant time to realise it isn't it?
