VISUAL IDENTITY

The museum’s visual identity is guided by the defining attributes inherent to the Kenyan culture. The materials, typefaces, colors, photographic treatments, media, and interactive elements deployed throughout the exhibition aim to harmonize and evoke these elements. The essence of the visual identity can be distilled into the land, people, material culture, and history. They are critical to the narrative and thus will function as the base for the overarching visual approach to exhibition material.
