About YouTube

Black bold sans-serif letters spelling "You" sit to the left of a glossy, horizontally elongated red rounded rectangle that contains the white word "Tube" in a bold, condensed sans-serif. The red rectangle has a subtle gradient and highlight that gives a shiny, slightly three-dimensional/button-like appearance.

The composition is a horizontal wordmark: the left portion is plain dark text, the right portion is a bright red pill-shaped badge with the contrasting white text inset. The overall look reads as a compact logo badge attached to a wordmark.

Shapes: rounded rectangle wordmark horizontal layout

Style: glossy gradient bold sans-serif badge-like corporate

Text in logo: YouTube

The red rounded rectangle reads as a button-like badge, evoking a media/video control or app badge.
