Anchorage Museum
Visual Identity, InstallationThe largest museum in Alaska, Anchorage Museum, tells a multi-faceted story that weaves together cultural, scientific, historical, and artistic threads. It connects people, expands perspectives, and encourages dialogue about the North and its distinct environment.
The new visual identity is inspired by its specific natural environments, such as glaciers and ice cubes. The transformation from the right-angle corner to the rounded corner in the logo visually corresponds to when the ice melts. It aims to bring closer the relationship between people, culture, and landscape by emphasizing this geographical characteristic.

Exhibition Installation︎︎︎
Anchorage Museum curates this hypothetical outdoor installation for North X North 2021, a creative festival. The experience has three different specific domes that allow people to visit. The structure uses the rounded grid element from the identity system. By highlighting the features of the natural environment, the sunlight will go through into the interior and cast shadows on the ground. For the material, it uses reflective steel material that reflects the surrounding environment, bringing nature closer to people’s sight. The purpose is to provide a space that gathers people and invites people to encourage dialogue about the North.
