THE PARIS CATACOMBS HAVE A SURPRISINGLY CUTE LOGO DESIGN
Summary from the TLDR Design newsletter
The Paris Catacombs, a vast underground ossuary that holds the remains of six million people, has an unexpectedly playful logo that cleverly uses negative space to form a skull within the letter "C." Designed by studio Mo-To in 2019, the logo's typography blends macabre history with the site's modern identity as a quirky tourist attraction to symbolize the transition from life to death.
