The Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden is a modern and contemporary art museum located within the National Mall in Washington DC, US. The museum exists under the Smithsonian Institution, exhibiting a vast collection of post World War II art as well as rotating contemporary exhibitions.

The ‘H’ logomark can shift to form containers for information, large scale typography as well as organic, playful and generative form.
