Art Forum Berlin Identity

Art Forum Berlin Identity

The competition entry for the new Art Forum Berlin identity was inspired by Phil Baines 'You can read me' typeface. With his design Baines explores the limits of legibility. For the Art Forum Berlin logotype a fine balance was struck between legibility and a playful composition of shapes illustrating the artistic topic. The result is an instantly recognisable 'signature' for this contemporary art fair.
