Y2K Blobjects Fad

Nothing screams y2k cybercore tech and item design than blobjects, all of these items were originally released to the public around the turn of the millennium and it definitely shows.

I love the unique style and how the theme was just make it look round and bulky, I would’ve added interior design but I figured that deserves its own post tbh.

Dang, this book is nostalgic. It was released in 2002 (the same year I received that comforter it's currently laying on, incidentally), back when I was nine/ten-years-old and my baby bat journey officially began. Over half of the websites mentioned are Geocities or Angelfire and a bunch of the bands and messageboards it mentions no longer exist.

Iconic Y2K Company Logos.

During the era of the late nineties and early naughties company logos began adopting the cybercore iconography in it’s style this shift peaked around 1999/2000.

I put a few logos before the design shift to show you the difference between how it was then versus how Y2K it started to look, some logos were already designed in that style so there wasn’t anything to compare it to.

When looking up Y2K logo aesthetics the thing that annoys the piss out of me is that a bunch of templates pop up with original designs rather than real life examples, this logo shift was very pronounced and a huge staple of Y2K.

Since I’ve been collecting Sqwishland Squishies since the early 2000s, I find it interesting how different the style is now. I’ve got all guys these over the past year at a local thrift store and grocery store. I think it’s cool that some are just recolors of the classic designs.
