By rotating the E, part of his name transforms into a paintbrush with colorful strokes extending beyond the margins. Through this playful typographic design, Noel is able to brand himself not only as creative, but also professional. The use of a sans serif font, as well as the juxtapositions of color, give it a modern look.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/gra217.expressions.syr.edu\/s5g1\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2013\/09\/va.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-157\" alt=\"va\" src=\"https:\/\/gra217.expressions.syr.edu\/s5g1\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2013\/09\/va-300x158.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"158\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gra217.expressions.syr.edu\/s5g1\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2013\/09\/va-300x158.jpg 300w, https:\/\/gra217.expressions.syr.edu\/s5g1\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2013\/09\/va-500x263.jpg 500w, https:\/\/gra217.expressions.syr.edu\/s5g1\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2013\/09\/va.jpg 648w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s only fitting that the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.vam.ac.uk\" target=\"_blank\">Victorian and Albert<\/a> \u00a0art &amp; design museum in London would have an attractive wordmark. I love their use of negative space and how the end of the ampersand fits as the crossbar of the A. It&#8217;s a great example of minimalist design, since the rest of the A doesn&#8217;t even need to be filled in. The exclusion of color gives the museum an elegant persona, acting as a symbol of status in the art world. I also think the serif font combined with the simple design shows that the museum is rooted in tradition but still understands contemporary art and design.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; This first wordmark was designed for house painter, Noel Devereux.
