The City of Melbourne Rebrands
The city of Melbourne have just re-branded and I have to say it looks sweet. The work was done by Landor . I have to say I love the typography and the amount of play that the “M” has reflects very well against the city’s livelihood.
How the rebrand worked.
- The cost for design was $147,906, in addition to developmental work which cost $91,652.
- The review undertook included an audit; research into world’s best practice; internal and external stakeholder consultation which included a range of focus groups and comprised the aspirations of Future Melbourne community plan.
- The result of the review was for the City of Melbourne to proceed with developing a new corporate identity.
- This will represent not only future savings to ratepayers but will be immediately recognisable as the City of Melbourne locally, nationally, and internationally.
The details of the new identity can be found » HERE
