About Sherwin Williams

On a bright blue rectangular field sits a bold white wordmark reading "SHERWIN WILLIAMS" in an italic, condensed sans-serif to the right. To the left of the text is an illustrative emblem: a tilted red paint can pouring a stream of red paint that engulfs a blue globe. The paint forms a rounded blob over the top of the globe and several elongated drips fall from the bottom.

Inside the red paint over the globe are three simplified white human silhouettes standing on the exposed portion of the Earth; the words "COVER THE EARTH" are visible within the red area. The emblem uses solid flat colors with darker outlines for detail; the overall look is bold, slightly vintage and emblematic rather than purely abstract.
