The subject of this two-phase competition was a comprehensive visual style of the institution and its subsequent application for all buildings and memorial sites of the Terezín Memorial. The new visual identity should be simultaneously applicable to all printed and online outputs of the institution, the information system of the memorial and its adjacent objects, and possibly also for the newly prepared exhibition.

The Terezín Memorial is a specialised Czech memory institution whose mission is to preserve the memory of the victims of the Second World War for present and future generations. It develops mainly museum, exhibition, research and educational activities, which have gained recognition abroad.
