04. BMW



While it has long been assumed that the BMW logo is a representation of the rotation of a propeller, that has actually been proven to be more myth than reality. The true story is that when BMW emerged as a result of a restructuring of Rapp Motorenworke, BMW wanted to maintain the dynamic of the Rapp logo and layout. Additionally, the blue and white colors are the predominate colors of the Bavarian flag. hence the new BMW logo.
