    Sprite Re-brand



    Brand New: Sprite Gets More Sprite

    What does everyone think. Personally I think companies have started to hire partially sighted designers.

    Pepsi have rebranded too:

    before and after



    the new one is meant to represent a smirk / smile




    It will apparently cost Pepsi $1.5 Billion to re-brand the Pepsi / Mountain Dew / Gatorade lines.


    I don't mind the new sprite revamp. The new Pepsi one is growing on me.

    Can't say I like the Sprite one, but I guess that's partly due to it being poorly presented on that horrid green background.

    Nope, had another look, still not a fan really.

    My opinion:

    Sprite: Looks pants! It's "OK" but what is with the weird random out of shape "star" type thing in the background? Looks like a rough sketch gone digital. I do not like it at all, the old design isn't great but atless it is clear.

    Pepsi: Call that a re-brand? lol. I like it, well the idea behind it, but I don't like the look of the new can, that "modern" text somehow just doesn't do Pepsi justice.

    Sprite's rebrand is terrible, looks little its been squashed. Why is the lemon behind the label part, shocking.

    What is going on with recent high level rebrands! Most of them have been questionable!

    The lemon is split by the label so that the other half is green to represent lime I believe.

    Agreed Steven. It looks like an amateur designers choice of text, really doesn't work for me, it makes the product look like a cheap alternative.

    I quite like the Pepsi rebrand, its just simple and attractive. Sort of following what coke did with their can by just taking away all the flashy bubbles etc and just using the logo. But the Sprite one is shocking! Looks like a holly leaf? I'd believe that was an initial (poor) design concept but not the finished article!

    Aha, I see, just looks wrong doesn't it?
