Royal winner in the Rhode Island School of Design logo competition as Swedish Prince nabs award.
Posted in: Uncategorized
Looks like our very own ‘designing prince’ Carl-Philip Bernadotte – the Duke of Värmland – has won a design competition. He submitted his proposal under a psuedonym which may explain why I can’t find any information on this other than on the Royal website “Kungahuset.se”, and in the tabloids here in Sweden (#1, #2). My translation of what the official statement on Kungahuset.se says;
The spring of 2007 the Prince studied at the well known school Rhode Island School of Design in the United states.
At the school there was a contest to create the best new look for the Martha’s Vineyard Museum in Massachusetts. In a tough competition with other students, the Prince turned in his suggestion using a pseudonym.
The Prince was hired, after completed studies, by the museum to develop a corporate identity for them. This corporate identity is now in use by the museum in their advertising and information about the museum.
