For the first time since the carrier was founded in 2002, Norwegian has today announced the modernization of their logo and visual identity.
On Wednesday (February 28, 2024), Norwegian Air Shuttle (Norwegian) announced the first update to their logo and brand identity since launching in 2002. The modern new logo and avatar have been designed to present a warmer and clearer expression of the brands personality and uniqueness, while meeting today’s requirements and needs in marketing work. The updated visual identity has been created by Norwegian’s marketing department, which is led by Eirik Bryn, in collaboration with Try Design, under the project management of Norwegian’s Creative Director, Camilla Aspen.
In Wednesday’s announcement, Norwegian’s EVP – Market and Customer Service, Christoffer Sundby, said,
“Norwegian's logo and brand are very well known and appreciated, and we are very proud of that. Although we are now renewing ourselves, we promise that our customers will recognize us. After more than 20 years, a modernization is in order, and this gives Norwegian a more modern, warmer and clearer expression that will take us safely into the next 20 years.”
Also commenting on the brand refresh, Norwegian’s Creative Director, Camilla Aspen, added,
“Our new visual identity has a richer color palette, a new typographic expression and image style, and a more flexible layout system. We look forward to showing this off, both internally and externally. The rollout does not happen overnight. We will start in digital channels, and will then update gradually and structured in all communication areas, offices, airports and on the planes themselves. Old and new can safely live side by side for a period of time. At the beginning of March, the new profile and logo will be visible for the first time in our own and external media.”
