So, what got me thinking about this was the recent Instagram logo redesign. Its getting a lot of attention, for all the wrong reasons. It’s getting a lot of hate, and I can understand why, it kind of looks like it has been redesigned by a child with no design skills. But I have to be honest, I like it.
