Microsoft Logo

The Microsoft logo sets a grey Segoe wordmark (#737373) beside a four-square window in red (#F25022), green (#7FBA00), blue (#00A4EF) and yellow (#FFB900). Those four colours were introduced with the 2012 redesign and signal the spread of the company's products rather than mapping to specific ones.

Microsoft Logo Font

The Microsoft wordmark is based on Segoe UI Semibold (the wordmark is set in Microsoft's own Segoe family). Fonts used in brand logos are often customised and are not always available for licensing — use the official brand resources below for any approved assets.

Microsoft Logo History & Meaning

The current Microsoft logo arrived in August 2012, the company's first full redesign in 25 years. It pairs a grey "Microsoft" wordmark, set in the company's Segoe typeface, with a four-pane window symbol whose red, green, blue and yellow squares nod to the breadth of the product line rather than to any single product. The flat, grid-based mark replaced the slanted italic wordmark used since 1987 and reflected the squared-off Metro design language Microsoft was rolling out across Windows at the time.

The 2012 logo was created in-house by Microsoft's brand team alongside agency work tied to its Metro/Modern design language. It was the company's first logo overhaul in 25 years.
