I'll start as an example: in the song Mr. Brightside by the Killers, the word "swimming" in "swimming through sick lullabies" is pronounced with a 't' at the start like in "tsunami". It's "tswimming through sick lullabies".

I took a design class once. The London Symphony Orchestra logo can be interpreted as either a stylized conductor or the letters LSO; similarly the Spartan Golf Club logo can either be interpreted as the head of Spartan or a golfer taking a swing. The Pittsburgh Zoo logo may be seen as a tree, or a lion and a gorilla.

The GameCube logo: a pair of cubes inside each other, with the G formed by the cube and the C formed by the negative space inside the cubes. The negative space in the camera shutter in the Picasa logo forms a house (a "home" for all your photos, and 'casa' is Spanish for house). The Toblerone mountain has a bear in it's negative space (it's made in the 'city of bears').

The 'tit' in Tostitos is two people sharing chips and dip. The negative-space arrow in the FedEx logo, subconsciously hinting "speed". The Amazon smile logo implies cheerfulness, also has a "speed" arrow, and the arrow goes from A to Z in the design.

Baskin Robbins sells 31 flavors of ice cream, and they've incorporated that number into the BR of their logo. The R in the Tour de France logo is a cyclist. The old Milwaukee Brewers logo was a mitt catching a ball, except the mitt was made of the letters MB. The Washington State Cougar logo is made up of W, S and C.
