OUR PROBLEM
How Can LSC Balance Family Fun With Innovation?

Liberty Science Center struggles to balance its family image with reaching a wider audience. Its brand lacks the polish and inclusivity needed to be seen as a space for learning, innovation, and community.

OUR SOLUTION
How Can A Modern Rebrand Bridge The Age Gap?

A rebrand that redefines LSC as a dynamic and inclusive space for all ages. Modernizing its visual identity reflects innovation and inclusivity while retaining the brand’s approachable essence.

By integrating collaborative communities with adaptive AI, we replace rigid structures with tailored paths that spark engagement and empower learners to reach their full language potential.

BRAND PRINCIPLES

  • Design Equilibrium:

    Achieve a harmonious balance in the design, inspired by the delicate movement of Alexander Calder's mobiles and the fundamental principles of balance inherent in seesaws. Ensure that visual elements interact dynamically, creating a captivating and visually engaging experience.

  • Vibrant Harmony:

    Infuse the design with a lively and harmonious array of colors, inspired by the dynamic hues seen in Alexander Calder's mobiles. Ensure that the color palette exudes energy while maintaining a balanced and visually appealing composition.

  • Minimalistic Modern:

    Embrace a deeply minimalistic approach, focusing intently on simplicity and clarity to convey true sophistication. Strive for exceptionally clean lines and beautifully uncluttered spaces that breathe and inspire a profound sense of calm.

ART DIRECTION

Design Direction

Geometric Chromatic Discovery

The visual identity is anchored in the concept of balanced motion, drawing a direct line between the kinetic poise of Calder’s mobiles and the playful physics of a seesaw. This is expressed through a modular grid system that prioritizes both structural stability and rhythmic energy. By layering vibrant, high saturation tones against clean, expansive whitespace, the design creates a sense of intellectual breathing room allowing the curated imagery of hands on learning to become the focal point. Instead of a traditional, static layout, we utilized asymmetrical balance and fluid transitions to mimic the 'aha!' moment of scientific discovery. The final experience is a translation of physical exploration into a digital landscape, designed to be as tactile and responsive as a science experiment in motion.

ANALYSIS

As Liberty Science Center has niche categories focusing on STEM, there is 3 specific design systems with its own symbols and logo format. Use these specific logos throughout the brand elements as needed.

Inspired by the formation and movement of the rings of atoms in science.

Science

Built of off the 4 symbols of mathematics: Addition (+), Subtraction (-), Multiplication (×), and Division (÷)

Mathematics

Built from the importance of balance and elements functioning together in engineering.
