The Russia-Ukraine war, which has been going on for 3 weeks and there is no winner when we look at the current situation, has affected the whole world. In particular, the global economy has taken its share from this war. Russian companies, for example, lost value at unprecedented levels with the onset of the war. The leading brands of the world have cut off their relations with Russia.
Names such as Adidas, Ebay, Amazon, Starbucks and McDonalds were among the brands that left Russia after the unjust invasion attempt against Ukraine. Czech art director Vaclav Kudelka developed a view on this situation in his own way. Kudelka, who overhauled the logos of world-famous brands, reconstructed the logos of brands that said goodbye to Russia in a way that would meet the phrase “goodbye”. Let’s take a closer look at those logos together.
Here are the logo designs for brands that have stopped working in Russia:
