@garfiald important question.. is there a logo for No Logo or are they at least being literal about the name

there's a similar "lifestyle" kind of brand in Japan called MUJI, short for Mujirushi Ryohin, which translates as “no-brand quality goods.” they at least stick to the name and lack branding on the products they sell

re: cw alc, food, late capitalism 

@FragileVal hmm... seems to me that muji in fact has an extremely strong brand, just, you know, their brand is pretending they dont. anyway this is what a bottle of No Logo lager looks like, with a label painstakingly designed to fit the branding of the beer's associated pizza chain, franco manca
