Pentagram Designs ‘Flexible’ Logo for Art UK

By Editor May 26, 2016

Categories: Arts

Pentagram’s Marina Willer has designed a new visual identity for Art UK, a charity that exists to record and showcase all the art owned by the UK in all of its public collections.

The UK is said to have one of the world’s largest public art collections with 212, 732 artworks by 38,370 artists displayed throughout 3,261 venues in England, Scotland and Wales.

These works are collectively owned by UK residents, but because of the large amount, and their geographical spread, few Britons know the true extent of their public art. Art UK has therefore digitised many of these artworks, making it easier for members of the public to see them in one virtual space.

“The identity expresses the theme of connectivity. It is flexible and elastic, indicating different points of access and ways of interpreting art. Each letter of the logotype is joined to another, reflecting how the public interacts with the Art UK website and the artworks within the collection,” explain the designers.

As well as creating a visual identity, Pentagram’s Naresh Ramchandani helped devise a new name for the charity.

“The purpose of the new name was to signify the organisation’s change of strategy and their shift away from printed catalogues to the current digitised collection,” says Pentagram.

The name Art UK is also accompanied by the end line, ‘Welcome to the nation’s art’.

THANKS. YOUR MESSAGE HAS BEEN SENT.
WE'LL RESPOND SHORTLY.

The more information, the better.

  • Provide large-sized images showing your design in lots of detail, saved at 150 or 300 dpi in JPEG (preferred) or PNG format
  • Include the ‘design story’ text document, not forgetting to list relevant categories and tags
  • Enclose the above in a single zip/rar file and send to: submissions [at] logo-designer [dot] co
  • You can submit more than one logo design; however, the limit is one submission per month
  • Be patient (it may be a while before we feature or publish your work).

OTHER CONTENT:

As well as logos, we’ll also consider the following for publication:

  • Font design
  • Icon design
  • Articles: opinion/advice (from both logo designers and brand strategy consultants).
