MIHO MUSEUM, which is nestled in the rich mountain range of Shigaraki in Shiga, takes for its logo the first letter of “MIHO” and beautifully incorporates it into a design symbolizing the purity of the mountains and the harmony of the museum’s architecture in nature. This elegant charm, depicted in a flowing, soft script, expresses the essence of beauty and aesthetics. |
|
This is the concept of MIHO MUSEUM’s logo, which was designed by Carré Noir (based in Paris). The letter “M” for MIHO appears as if handwritten to create the ridged peak of Mount Fuji. This symbol has also been developed as the logo for the tableware in our restaurant and café and for accessories in our shops. These items make wonderful gifts for friends or for yourself.
