An obvious take on the Starbucks Logo, but is there cultural appropriation here and which direction is it going in? (Cross reference: https://www.logogenie.net/blog/starbucks-logo-a-brief-history-of-their-logo-design-evolution-and-what-makes-it-so-great )

I love the ideas hiding in some of these design elements. The pieces are very atomic, but can be built up into some fascinating bigger designs.

I'm curious if there are any mnemonics attached to these that add additional levels of meaning in the art in which they're embedded?
