Cultural

Having established a new identity for the gallery back in 1999, ten years on the identity did not need to be redesigned, rather an update of the framework that it sits within. A bolder, typographic approach and wider colour palette has been introduced along with an approach to folding the gallery’s printed communications and publications facilitated in a cost neutral manner by the recruitment of Adam’s Print as an annual print partner.
