OpenStreetMap

Mapbox has a new logo!

Posted by jinalfoflia on 28 April 2017 in English.

OpenStreetMap is an integral part of Mapbox, I’m happy to share the announcement about our new logo with the community! 🎉

The logo is a helmet of an astronaut and my favorite part of this logo is that it reinstates Mapbox’s culture of curiosity and passion! It showcases the team’s vision and enthusiasm towards new opportunities. The star that you see in the astronaut’s helmet demonstrates our spirits to reach new heights! Know more details about the logo here.

Though we have a new look and feel, we still continue to be the Mapbox that you all know. Our commitment towards improving OpenStreetMap data remains the same and so is our attribution around OpenStreetMap! ✨

Hi Jinal, do you feel like the circle is skewed in the bottom left part? That is clearly a optical illusion, so you would need to compensate for it. That is if you want for a circle to feel like a circle, of course.

(too bad mapbox does not allow public feedback)

Mapbox logo > https://www.mapbox.com/blog/new-mapbox-logo/ > “Rotating 45°”

:)

Instead of “Rotating 45°” it can be a “Rotating 42°” ( it is only a small change )

“42” is very Good Number: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/42_(number)

so it will be easy to connect to:

The Good Part :

  • The logo “blue” hex code is “Hex #4264fb” ( 42 inside !!! extra secret meaning !!! )
