Twenty five years after the introduction of its last company logo, Microsoft decided it’s time for a change.
The new logo is not a radical departure from the current one. The colors from its previous, “wavy” logo, are the same — red, green, yellow and blue, but the logo is now square, similar to the Windows 8 logo and in line with Microsoft’s recent design direction.
The new logo already adorns Microsoft’s website. Furthermore, it can be seen today in three Microsoft retail stores — Boston, Seattle’s University Village and Bellevue, Wash. — and it’s coming to all of the company’s stores in the “next few months.”
