The OMA recognized in "Best of Orlando."

From Orlando Weekly:

Best makeover
Orlando Museum of Art logo and website

Is Orlando’s biggest art museum moving toward more contemporary programming, or are they just blowing off the dust? Time will tell, but in the meantime, the museum’s new identity brings it into the 21st century. Designed by local agency Push, with back-end web programming by locals Hydra (now Purple Rock Scissors), the simple but sophisticated logo “is a nod to Bauhaus aesthetics,” says design director Forest Young, in the way it “points to the triangle/circle/square [and] primary colors as the building blocks for rational design.” The logo is included in 2008’s Logo Design, the most recent edition of Taschen’s annual collection of the world’s best logos, pulling Orlando onto the world design stage. Kudos.

The OMA is also recognized as Best Museum.
