Rice School of Architecture
Kontour designed the new logotype for the School of Architecture at the Rice University. The logotype animates nicely into shape on the school's website designed by Paul Kremer. The letters are derived from the typeface family commissioned by the school for their exclusive use. The custom typefaces are used on-line and for print collateral.
