Motel Mozaïque turns 25, and we’re kicking off this milestone in style! To mark this special occasion, we’re introducing an entirely new visual identity. The refreshed look highlights the essence of our mission, vision, and name: the mosaic. Every element of our program is unique, yet together they form an inspiring whole. This mosaic creates new patterns, connections, and movement, with Rotterdam as the binding force. Starting today, you’ll see this new design across all MOMO platforms, including MOMO Festival, MOMO Concerts, and MOMO Create.
“This year, we’re celebrating 25 years of Motel Mozaïque, and part of that celebration is unveiling a new visual identity. We’re proud of what we’ve accomplished over the past 25 years, but our focus is firmly on the future – with ambitious plans and exciting collaborations ahead. A big shout-out to the MOMO team and 75B for this fantastic rebranding as the kickoff to our anniversary year. We look forward to celebrating together with the city during MOMO Festival from April 17–19!”- Rick Mouwen, interim director Motel Mozaïque (MOMO)
The new MOMO artwork was crafted by Rotterdam-based design agency 75B, renowned for their work with International Film Festival Rotterdam, Susan Bijl, Kaapse Brouwers en Arminius, among others. Last year, their portfolio was showcased in the Kunsthal in an exhibition titled ‘75B Klootviolen’.
“We wanted to emphasize the idea behind the name, especially the mosaic concept. Each element of the program is beautiful on its own but indispensable as part of the whole. We even designed a custom typeface inspired by a classic diamond-shaped mosaic. This font, named ‘MOMO Diamond,’ is paired with a sharp-edged logo made of diamond shapes that subtly spell out MOMO. At the same time, the logo evokes the visual representation of sound.” – Rens Muis, 75B
MOMO Festival takes place from Thursday, April 17, to Saturday, April 19, 2025. The next MOMO Concert, with Blaudzun, is at Maassilo on February 13, 2025.
