The Mary Rose Logo

The logo brief was to better represent and manage visitors’ expectations of The Mary Rose prior to the opening of an iconic museum in Portsmouth in 2012 – a dynamic attraction rich with narrative and emotion. The logo design emphasises all that makes the museum special, and quickly communicates the potentially complex tale of a Tudor ship whose sinking led to a story that continues today. The logo will bring the story of this famous vessel to life – it will be seen by people across the world as the key image for The Mary Rose and its new museum.
