LOGOS
Based on extensive customer research, United in 1997 adopted a new approach to serving its customers via the “Customer Satisfaction Philosophy.” To illustrate this new, customer-focused attitude, United commissioned Pentagram Design, Inc., to create a new graphic personality for the airline. Pentagram redesigned the logotype, retaining the classic “U” symbol originally designed by Saul Bass. As a fundamental recommendation, the symbol was coupled with the single word “United” set in a bold, sans-serif typeface to communicate confidence and strength. Pentagram also introduced the ”Sweep” which allows the United symbol to be used in a larger, more dramatic fashion, bleeding off the upper right portion of the page.
