The icons that represent Google services are reflected on three sides of the triangle. As a result, the tones became restrained and muted. The color palette has been preserved – only its spectrum has been changed. The only shaded area remains in the lower-left corner: it falls on the blue side. Google’s former logos are iconic, but these new ones might just be too consistent.During the redesign, the developers removed almost all corner shadows on the logo – now, the stripes that form an isosceles triangle look like a parallelogram. So far, I’ve seen a good amount of concern from users worried that these icons will be hard to distinguish on smartphones, and I’ve got to say, I agree. They feel familiar enough, but all together, they look really similar.
They all drop any sense of realism for basic shapes that use four colors. Really, this is the biggest logo design Gmail has ever seen for that reason.īeyond Gmail, the new icons for Google Drive, Meet, Calendar, and Docs/Sheets/Slides are also significant changes. The new icon retains that shape, but it uses Google’s four signature colors to form the “m” and ditches the white filler in between. The previous design was a classic, an envelope with a red stripe that created the iconic “m” shape. Perhaps the change that will affect the most people is the redesigned Gmail logo. Now, that consistency is reaching some of the most popular Google services.
Google Photos, Maps, Assistant, Fit, Home, One, Podcasts, TV, Wear OS, and others have all adopted the four-color icons that bring some consistency to the company’s apps. The redesigned logos of Google Workspace fall in line with what the company has been slowly rolling out for a few years now. G Suite is now Google Workspace, and it’s bringing a whole new set of logos for Gmail, Meet, Drive, and more. Gmail, Google Drive, and other G Suite services are used by millions of people every day, and now Google has announced a pretty big change.
