Lufthansa Logo
The Lufthansa logo runs on a deep navy blue (#05164D) with yellow (#F9BA00) as a heritage accent, set in an all-caps wordmark drawn close to Helvetica Black. Its encircled crane goes back to 1918 and was sharpened for digital screens in the 2018 centenary relaunch, when yellow was lifted out of the bird itself.

Lufthansa Logo History & Meaning
The encircled crane at the heart of the mark was drawn in 1918 by Otto Firle and has identified German Lufthansa across nearly its entire history. For the brand's centenary in 2018 the airline reworked the identity in-house with Munich agency Martin et Karczinski, deepening the blue, sharpening the crane's lines and dropping the yellow from the bird itself so it reads cleanly on small digital screens. The result keeps the heritage emblem while pairing it with a tighter all-caps wordmark, and yellow now survives mainly as a heritage accent rather than part of the logo.

Lufthansa Logo FAQ
What font is the Lufthansa logo?
The wordmark is a custom all-caps typeface drawn to sit very close to Helvetica Black. It was refined in the 2018 relaunch so the lettering stays sharp on small screens.
What colour is the Lufthansa logo?
The current logo is built around a deep navy blue, roughly #05164D. Yellow (#F9BA00) was removed from the crane in 2018 and now functions as a secondary heritage accent rather than part of the core mark.
Who designed the Lufthansa logo?
The encircled crane symbol was created by Otto Firle in 1918. The most recent 2018 refresh was developed in-house by Lufthansa with the Munich design studio Martin et Karczinski.
Why did Lufthansa change its logo in 2018?
The 2018 update marked 100 years of the crane emblem and modernised it for digital use. Lufthansa deepened the blue, refined the crane and removed the yellow from the bird so the mark stays legible at small sizes.
