Twitter 2012 Positive Logo History

This simplified blue bird silhouette was adopted by Twitter in 2012 as the company's primary brand mark, replacing earlier versions that combined a wordmark with a bird. The 2012 redesign refined the bird into a geometric, upward-facing silhouette used as the app icon and corporate emblem.
