A Rapid Evolution –
For Abu Dhabi National Library, we wanted to reflect the variety of ways library visitors access knowledge. With the brand idea “River of Ideas,” we captured the spirit of discovery, and also deeply routed in the Emirati way of life, which is the flow of knowledge from one generation to the next. Even the remotest parts of Abu Dhabi now benefit from ADNL’s vision of technology-based learning.
