Listasafn Reykjavíkur (Reykjavik Art Museum), the largest visual art institution in Iceland, worked with karlssonwilker on developing their new identity and design system as part of its transformation effort.

They designed a system that provides the museum with visual tools to express its diversity in programming and shows a connection between the museum’s three houses.

“The Reykjavik Art Museum partnered with prominent New York-based design studio karlssonwilker inc. to offer a fresh perspective on the development of a cohesive brand identity for its three art museums. karlssonwilker's collaboration with Reykjavik Art Museum marked a natural union, as one of the studio’s partners Hjalti Karlsson was born and raised in Reykjavik. The karlssonwilker design lens has an inherent cultural awareness which speaks to both local and international audiences.” — Ólöf Kristín Sigurðardóttir, Museum Director

Suisse Int’l is available as part of the Suisse collection from Swiss Typefaces.

“The historian Anna Dröfn Ágústsdóttir and the architect Guðni Valberg share the history of Reykjavík’s buildings that never were and use photos to show the city that could have been, but never became.” — Crymogea
