AIB, CIE and Irish Rail are the only ones that were significant upgrades to me (although the CIE one is still not great). The rest were either tweaks or downgrades.

Is it me or do most of these seem worse? AIB and Bus Éireann in particular.

AIB logo so cool

I don’t understand the tirlán thing. “countryfull”?

RTE’s new logo cost €12 million in consultancy fees and bonuses after its huge success.

Old permanent TSB logo was much better.

All of them became worse. Maybe with the exception of IRFU.

Did Bus Eireann stick with the “we go further to get you there” tagline? There wasn’t a word of a lie in that – they traversed every bohreen in the country to get you home. They missed out on the “nothing added but time” though, they should have done a swap with bulmers.

The designer of the new Horse Racing Ireland logo was so excited that he could that he didn’t think if he should.

Few more for you, the old network 2 logo and all the tv channels for that matter, as yer man above has said the lotto. Probably some old food logos too, kerrygold, tayto, cadbury, club orange, tanora, and obv dont forget the pints, theyre the best retro ones.

The growth of the crippling fear of a serifed font needs to be studied.

No one told Bus Éireann that Italics are not “in” anymore!

Thank you for spending your afternoon on this, OP.
FAI logo is definitely a downgrade.
then when?
Teagasc; reject modernity, embrace tradition
Bank of Ireland: *”get rid of that circle”*
Dublin Bus: *”gis dah circle!”*
I love the classic IRFU logo.
IRFU kinda rolls off the tongue.
FAI logo gradually getting worse since 1988
I hope RTE didn’t spend any money on that logo redesign.
Eircom should be telecom eireann instead
Jeasus, Teagasc went all out didn’t they?
I wonder how much the marketing budget is there!
Eir, Aer Lingus, Bus Eireann and Iarnrod Eireann are all better now imo
Although I do have a soft spot for the old Eircom logo but that’s only because it was on the Irish jersey when I was growing up.
All the rest either didn’t change much or took a massive downgrade.
1. IDA in wrong order.
2. These is mostly focused on most recent redesigns, some entities like RTE or ESB have had many.
3. Mostly focused on semi-state bodies but also feature private entities that more heavily feature in Irish life.
4. Any recommendations for other old iconic (good or bad) Irish logos and I’ll feature in updated version at some point.

Way better than the new one

The real AIB logo
I remember drawing 90s Irish corporate logos in Technical Graphics in school as far as the Junior cert. The Telecom Eireann logo was a tough one.
Bus Éireann should keep doing updates like this so eventually we can make a flip book of the dog running.
So, italics went out of fashion then?
Why does Glanbia turn into both Glanbia and Tirlán
When was ‘then’? They all seem quite recent to me!
FAI is like a fake team in pro evo
Jesus the only change worth talking about is that IDA logo. Rest bang of wasted money
Love the old cie logo
