Rhythms of the World
Visual identity for an exhibition complex: architecture, nature, art, cosmos, organism, everyday life.
Six exhibition themes: architecture, nature, art, cosmos, organism, everyday life. Each needs its own rhythm, and all of them together need one system.

rhythm
Rhythm (lat. rhythmus, from ancient greek ῥέω — «to flow, to stream») is how music is organised in time.
It's in space: the Earth spins around the Sun and its own axis, day turns to night, seasons change. In the body: heartbeat, pulse, breath, steps. In architecture: windows, stairs, facades. In everyday life: the clatter of wheels and heels. In nature: a woodpecker, rain, hail, wind, waves. And in art: poetry, painting, theatre, music, dance.

applications
Our life runs on the laws of rhythm. Catch the right tempo and you can get far in anything. As Aristotle said, «motion is life».
The project is growing. It will come to life in St. Petersburg.
