Competition

Regional Museum in Stalowa Wola

Here is one of the three proposals that we have prepared for the two-stage competition for a new logo and identification of the Regional Museum. We went to the second stage with two other studies. Ultimately, the competition has not been resolved - among the proposals of all finalists from all studies, no proposal was selected.

The idea of the sign is based on a symbolic representation of the uniqueness of the Museum - i.e. its location. As the Museum consists of two buildings in two different locations, we decided to show them symbolically as two rectangles and also a round circus. Their common denominator is the idea of the Museum - promotion of art, painting and the idea of the Central Industrial District. These three symbols form a signet in which we have written the abbreviation MRSW, which is used by the Museum.

Concept

The whole concept of a sign and the identification inseparable from it is based on the concept of modernity and timelessness. We really wanted the project to be timeless, to resist the passing trends. Hence the pure form of the signet, simple but refined in detail lettering and visual identification based on a non-obvious layout.
