Örkény Színház

Rebranding of a leading art theatre of the city of Budapest

Project summary

Örkény Theatre is one of Budapest’s leading art institutions, celebrated for its artistic excellence and socially engaged productions. The rebranding introduces a modern, internationally competitive visual identity that reflects the theatre’s progressive and timeless spirit. Designed to strengthen the connection between the institution and its audience, the refreshed brand remains accessible while opening toward younger generations. The emblem symbolizes the theatre’s central role in the city, drawing on the Hungarian “ö” through a dynamic circular composition that conveys movement even in its static form. The identity is completed by the TT Firs Neue typeface, whose expressive yet restrained Scandinavian-influenced design ensures clarity, versatility, and character.
