Whitney Museum Design Review


As a group, we believed the Whitney Museum's visual identity is contextually informed as it reflects the structural architecture of the new museum exterior. This enhances its identity through a bespoke concept and considered visual language. Also the interchangeability of the design allows for use in terms of reproduction and adaption. Contrary to this view, we feel that on a practical level the identity is restrictive, dominating and rigid in it's communication visually. Although the designers produced the identity with a 'need to be signed or filled', the visuals functionality is limited when presented as a stand-alone image. 


W - A space that wants to be filled/signed/drawn on

W on advertisement and in different forms
