The story behind the changes

How the identity evolved

A lowercase name defines a social network

Facebook’s early identity relied on a compact lowercase wordmark and a deep blue palette. The restrained lettering worked inside a website header, then across apps and mobile screens as the network expanded.

The wordmark becomes friendlier

Refinements in 2015 softened the letterforms without abandoning the blue, lowercase construction. A separate corporate wordmark arrived in 2019 to distinguish the parent company from the Facebook product.

Meta creates a symbol for the parent company

In 2021 the company adopted the Meta name and an open loop drawn to suggest both an infinity form and the letter M. The symbol was designed to move and exist in three dimensions rather than behave only as a flat badge.

Product and parent identities separate

The blue Facebook app mark continues alongside Meta’s corporate loop. Compare that layered system with Google and its parent-company structure, or Microsoft and its many product identities.
