Development of Brand Identity: Logo and Icon Depictions in the Virtual Reality Universe

The metaverse, a collective virtual shared space, is set to revolutionise the way brands connect with their customers. This digital realm offers a unique opportunity for a more engaging user experience, particularly in the initial interaction with a product.

Companies like Puma and design studios such as Studio Filmbilder are at the forefront of this transformation, developing interactive and presentation-optimized brand logos and thumbnails tailored for the metaverse. Their focus is on digital and XR experiences, while blockchain and digital agencies in Germany like Markenzeichen and Lean Bakery contribute to the technological backbone for such developments.

In the metaverse, logos and thumbnails are expected to evolve dramatically. The online casino sector, specifically slingo bingo games, have already implemented eye-catching thumbnails and logos with rich and detailed imagery. Games like China Shores Slingo and Slingo Space Invaders use thumbnails with themes and storylines that entice players to click.

These virtual art galleries could potentially expand as the user approaches, including sounds and narratives. In the metaverse, branding tools such as logos and thumbnails are designed to grab people's attention from the first point of interaction.

Interactivity could be a heavy focus in branding within the metaverse. For instance, holding an interactive Apple logo in a virtual Apple store could provide a more immersive experience compared to simply seeing a static logo. Similarly, in the metaverse, online casino games may be displayed as interactive thumbnails on the walls of virtual casinos, potentially including moving imagery and the ability to jump inside and see more of the product.

The evolution of logos and thumbnails in the metaverse may result in new dimensions. There may be opportunities to expand upon these ideas and provide users with more information in a thumbnail. The metaverse could offer new possibilities for interactivity within logos and thumbnails, potentially tricking the brain into thinking it's real, making good branding more impactful.

As the metaverse continues to develop, companies need to start anticipating and planning for the changes in branding. This new frontier offers opportunities for designers to push boundaries and set trends for future branding, potentially leading to a significant leap forward in the evolution of logos and thumbnails.
