Still growling? A new, modernised identity for New York Public Library…

YouTube: “The evolution of The New York Public Library’s new logo - with designers’ video responses below.”

“For the first time in at least a quarter century, the New York Public Library has unveiled a new logo, this one designed to work both online and in print. Consisting of a profile of a lion inside a circle, it sheds the fussy detail of the old one. Instead, it uses bold, simple lines that evoke the style of stained-glass windows, woodcuts, or old printers’ marks” — A New Look for the Public Library’s Lion Logo, New York Times
