Library of Congress – New Visitor Experience

Library of Congress
New Visitor Experience – Digital Directive
The Library of Congress Experience is their updated public face, boasting a rebrand by Chermayoff & Geismar, new permanent exhibits, and interactives installed throughout the Thomas Jefferson Building. The visual design had to reflect the stature of the institution, create a cohesive user experience amongst several unique experiences, stand up to a decade-long shelf life, and complement the new brand. The result culminated in a digital style guide with comprehensive design direction and a stable of interactive elements implemented across multiple installations by the team. Final applications included more than 12 unique kiosks, reactive wall projections, wall-sized exhibit videos, and dynamic lobby displays.
