Fauxgo: NorthAm Robotics

Purpose

Purpose:

I dedicate this blog to gather and share fictional logos mainly from movies. As a graphic designer and science fiction movies lover i find many of them very innovative. Fauxgo was a term coined by designer Tim Armstrong as “symbol or design detail created to represent a fiction company or organization that only exists in movies”. Armstrong affirms that a good ‘Fauxgo’ can help improve the credibility of a movie and become the icon of a movie.

I greatly surprised that some of these logos have jumped to the real world as companies or are inspiration for people to create their own companies or design new logos as you will note in posts.

Due the Armstrong’s fauxgo site is no longer available online i decided to relieve him and share my compilation with you! Feel free to comment about the movies, the companies or about the logos. You can also contribute by mentioning old or new companies in movies or TV series. Thanks for reading ^ _ ^.

NorthAm Robotics

Featured in: Bicentennial Man (1999)

NorthAm Robotics is a company that creates androids for multiple purposes, like in the case of "Andrew" who joins the Martin family home to perform housekeeping and maintenance duties. the Martin family realizes that Andrew can both identify emotions and reciprocate them. The family is astonished by his creativity and “Sir” Richard Martin takes him to NorthAm Robotics to inquire if all the robots are like him. The company's CEO (Stephen Root) sees this development as a problem and wishes to scrap Andrew. Instead, "Sir" takes Andrew home and allows him to pursue his own development.
