BRIEF TITLE The Brief
Background
Design and create an identity and apply this across a range of promotional material for the new museum and gallery ‘The Type Factory’.
The type factory is a new museum and gallery space being developed in a location of your choice. Offering an exciting resource and experience for designers and discerning tourists, its mission is simple: it aims to inform and enthuse its visitors about aspects of type and to promote all things typographic.
Concept/Proposition
The factory will house a range of artefacts and displays that demonstrate the history of type and typographic design, while the gallery space will host temporary exhibitions of contemporary type design as well as emerging talent.
The identity must capture the essence of experience that the visitor will have.
The factory will also house a café/bookstore, which will encourage visitors to meet and share their thoughts.
