In a remarkable fusion of tradition and innovation, the Brooklyn Museum unveils its rebrand in its bicentennial year. At its core, the redesign showcases an artful nod to the museum’s storied past and architectural grandeur.

As it journeys into its third century, the Brooklyn Museum stands as an emblem of artistic innovation and cultural richness. The latest rebrand, led by the Brooklyn-based design studio Other Means, pays homage to the museum’s prestigious 200-year history and its architectural significance.

Why the rebrand? Anne Pasternak, the Brooklyn Museum Director, reveals, “The ways that audiences are engaging with museums are expanding, and we needed a new brand that honors our rich history, and brings a whole lot of energy.”

  • At the helm of this exciting transformation is a revamped logo that blends historical ethos with modern typography.
  • The logo’s two dots, reflective of the museum’s roots as a library, now serve as a versatile design element in their rebranding strategy.
  • A sophisticated grey palette nods to the original limestone building, while blasts of bold color inject the vibrant essence of Brooklyn.

The result? A branding masterpiece that solidifies the Brooklyn Museum’s role as a historical masterpiece and a living, breathing contemporary cultural nexus. This is not just a new look; it’s a reaffirmation of the museum’s enduring importance in a rapidly evolving world of art and culture.
