Meaning and History
???? – 2017
The very first logo of the brand was blue. It was the name of the company.
2017 – now
In 2017, the next step in the company rebranding process took place. Out with the cold and serious (boring) blue. The pink color replaced it. This tint reflects every aspect of what they do. It oozes smooth: smoooth payment experience, smoooth technical solutions, smoooth office.
Currently, there are some requirements for the use of the logo. For example, to designate a company among other financial companies, as well as in some other cases when the brand name is not used as a title, the badge “Klarna” in black letters on the rose background is used. If it is not possible to use the badge, the black and white Klarna logo is used.
Font and Color
Since 2017, the main color of the logo is pink. This is the color of kindness and sentimentality. It looks spectacular, stylish and beautiful. Pink color belongs to the group of antidepressant colors. Its soft shades cause a person a sense of coziness and comfort, calms down, relieving obsessive thoughts. They relieve fatigue and help to believe in yourself.
Pink is used infrequently in business. It is because many people associate it with something naive and romantic. At the same time, the pink color gives inspiration. It awakens all the most beautiful things in a person, sets people up in a romantic way. And sometimes it can be applied great in business.
Pink is rarely used in logos of financial companies. Therefore, the Klarna logo can be considered unusual for this reason.
