Description

Marketing services. Whilst the V&A brand architecture model and rationale is already defined, the specific name and brand positioning for the new V&A Museum of Childhood is not. This was in recognition of the need for a more detailed piece of work that would occur once the museum's future proposition was more clearly developed.
Specifically, we now need to establish:

A clear name and public positioning for the new V&A Museum of Childhood, as part of the V&A's established brand architecture

A clear brand proposition for the new museum and how it will link to the V&A's other physical sites, particularly the two new East London sites in the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park (a new museum and a new Collections and Research centre)

A narrative that helps tell the museum's story, and sets out how it's both distinct from, and links into, the V&A's overall family of sites, particularly those in London

Tone of voice guidelines. The V&A has established tone of voice guidelines, but we want to develop these for MoC, helping the museum's personality come to life across all touchpoints.
