Orrery brand board with the orbit monogram on deep navy

The challenge

The old logo was a clip-art planet and the ticket office used six different fonts. Families loved the shows; the brand just didn't tell anyone.

The approach

The mark is built from the orbits of a mechanical orrery — three rings that also form an 'O'. A deep-night palette with one luminous blue keeps it calm by day and striking at night.

The outcome

A complete identity system rolled out across tickets, signage, the website and merchandise, with guidelines the in-house team now uses on their own.
