great spatial/typographic ‘ambigram’ from markus raetz

welcome home
visited yesterday with the family: the revamped and revitalised stedelijk museum
finally back (on the original site) after 10 years absence; it’s been too long… but it looks amazing and if you ask me now that the new (& much criticised) identity by mevis en van deursen has been implemented and started to come to life around the museum i think that it actually works really well (i had decided to not join the flood of negative comment on the logo until seeing the whole story)
pretty in pink
simple but effective poster (i have no idea who made it)
