The visual identity design of the Hungarian Museum of Science, Technology and Transport has been completely renewed. The new colours, the new logos, and the new webpage reflect the image of a vivid and modern institution. Beside the almost one-hundred-year-old Museum of Transport, which is currently being renewed, the image of the other technology-oriented member institutions has been modernised as well. The new image was created by MITTE Communications based on the results of the tender.
The newest exhibition of the Hungarian Museum of Transport opened on the 26th of April, with the co-operation of the Balassi Institute, the Hungarian Institute in Istanbul.
