Thiepval Museum and Visitor Centre

The Museum is located adjacent to the Lutyens Memorial in Northern France, erected in memory of over 72,000 British and Commonwealth troops missing in action as well as the graves of 600 British and French war dead. It is designed to give those who visit the context and understanding of all who died in the Battle of the Somme. We were the lead consultancy and provided all 3D design and layout as well as project management, film making, and graphics. There is a small amount of objects in glass cases and a large amount of graphic and audio visual interpretation.

Imperial War Museum

The Museum has the difficult task of shedding light on the grim art of war while avoiding being seen to celebrate it. Minale Tattersfield was commissioned to create a new identity for the Museum which would convey its purpose while taking account of the wider considerations.

A symbol was created which incorporates the initials W and M in the form of searchlights against a background of land, sea and sky. This identity is not only implemented across murals, promotional literature and posters but is also modified for special events such as VE and VJ day.

Signs were designed for different parts of the museum such as the shop and café and a wayfinding system was developed. We also designed a suite of literature and produced a guidelines manual to ensure the identity was applied correctly throughout.

Royal Armouries Museum

Minale Tattersfield designed the visual identity and the signage for the Royal Armouries Museum in Leeds. The identity is based on the horned helmet , the remains of a suit of armour belonging to Henry VIII.

Visitors are directed around the galleries by huge banners hanging from the very high ceilings to the floor and ranging along the length of the internal street. Directions are in the form of gigantic open books made of laminated beech and standing on a tripod inspired by Renaissance carpentry.

We also designed a suite of literature and produced a guidelines manual to ensure the identity was applied correctly and consistently throughout.

London Transport Museum

As part of the refurbishment programme for the London Transport Museum, Minale Tattersfield was asked to design a new identity and signage. The idea was to create an identity that would evoke the classic London Transport identity and commemorate the relationship between a great urban transport system and the people using it – past, present and future.

The symbol that we designed showed three different ages of London Transport travel. From a top hatted Victorian gentleman to a modern passenger, speed is communicated through movement lines which increase through the ages. We also designed a suite of literature and produced a guidelines manual to ensure the identity was applied correctly and consistently throughout.
