A LITTLE FAMILIAR?
Posted by Mike Rigby
The most blatant bit of plagiarism I’ve seen in some time. The City of Melbourne Identity – produced by friends of TDOD Jason Little, Ivana Martinovitch, Jefton Sungar and Malin Holmstrom. No doubt they would be a little surprised to see this remarkably similar identity for the Fantasia MIC Plaza currently rolling out in China…
Melbourne Hoarding…

Wow, this makes me furious! There has to be some repercussions for such a blatant rip-off.
I agree, but might have to address the democracy issues before that happens?
What are you talking about? They look completely different???!
Madness but China is like that to be honest, the place is riddled with fake goods so doesn’t surprise me they’re now ripping off branding. As Billy says, much would need to change before anyone can seriously do anything about it.
Awful that they can get away with this!
It’s China.
They will get away with it. You can see counterfeits, fakes and copies everywhere in the larger cities, even counterfeit cars!
To copy has no or little social stigma attached to it in China, in fact it is even seen as a form of flattery. Just don’t let them see you jumping up and down in unison otherwise we’ll all get wet.
This is truly shocking.
