The Royal Danish Collection brings together Denmark’s living and historical castles — places where the country’s royal history is preserved, experienced, and brought to life. From grand halls and magnificent art to the Crown Jewels, it tells the story of the Royal Family across centuries. We developed a brand and communications platform that reflects the scale and richness of this institution. With a new name — Den Kongelige Samling (The Royal Danish Collection) — the change marks the evolution into one of Denmark’s largest cultural institutions, spanning Amalienborg Museum, Christiansborg Palace, the Hermitage Hunting Lodge, Fredensborg Palace, Koldinghus, and Rosenborg Castle. At the heart of the new visual identity are two key elements: the shield and the crown. These symbols scale seamlessly from favicon to full layout systems. The logotype blends traditional ligatures with contemporary precision, while the color palette is drawn directly from the collection’s own artifacts. Both the visual identity and tone of voice form a sensory treasury, where tactile experiences and language leave physical impressions of history’s resonance.
