It has proven challenging trying to convey to audiences what they&#8217;re all about. After all, they don&#8217;t just show operas, they have all sorts of events. While many take pictures outside of the structure, few step inside of its doors. In an attempt to attract new audiences, Stand Apart needed to tell the story of the Sydney Opera House.<br \/>\nHere are the results of the rebrand:<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/d3ui957tjb5bqd.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/2016\/02\/bad-or-rad-soh-\u2014-001.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"680\" height=\"453\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-33767\"><br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/d3ui957tjb5bqd.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/2016\/02\/bad-or-rad-soh-\u2014-002.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"680\" height=\"453\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-33768\"><br \/>\nThe resulting concept was called &#8220;Shifting Perspectives,&#8221; which is then paired with a sculptural form language. The sails pictured above are meant to draw attention, and the 3-D typeface mimics the structure of the complex. Between the two different forms, they build a brand identity for the Sydney Opera House that&#8217;s uniform and intrigues potential attendees.<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/d3ui957tjb5bqd.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/2016\/02\/bad-or-rad-soh-\u2014-004.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1500\" height=\"1000\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-33770\"><br \/>\nThe wordmark is getting a ton of attention, and that&#8217;s because it was a custom-made deal that&#8217;s not only unique but easy to work with \u2014 even if you&#8217;re not Stand Apart. They created a custom InDesign script that allows the people who work with the Sydney Opera House in the future to recreate the 3-D typeface for future design projects.<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/d3ui957tjb5bqd.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/2016\/02\/bad-or-rad-soh-\u2014-003.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"680\" height=\"453\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-33769\"><br \/>\nNow it&#8217;s time to share your thoughts: love it, hate it?
