Google redesign Chrome logo after 8 years

Google is changing its Chrome browser logo for the first time in eight years. Elvin Hu, a designer for Google Chrome, offers a first look at the logo`s redesign in a thread on Twitter.

"Some of you might have noticed a new icon in Chrome`s Canary update today. Yes! we`re refreshing Chrome`s brand icons for the first time in 8 years. The new icons will start to appear



across your devices soon," Hu said in a tweet.

The icon has been simplified/flattened by removing the shadows. The colours are brighter and the proportions are different, making the big blue ball in the middle noticeably bigger.

Google also is tweaking it further with different variations designed to look more at home on Windows, MacOS and iOS.
