Want to get the most out of your next visit? Swipe to read the museum tips you never knew you needed 🔎➡️ A group of people crowd around Edouard Manet The Old Musician” in the National Gallery of Art’s West Building. Against a hilly landscape and on a patch of dirt, five people wearing tattered clothing gather around a bearded man who holds a violin in his lap in this horizontal painting. Most of them have pale skin. Starting from the left is a barefoot young woman holding a blond baby to her chest. She faces our right, and her chestnut-brown hair hides her profile. She wears a black shirt over a calf-length skirt streaked with slate and aquamarine blue. To the right two young boys face us. The boy on the left of that pair wears a loose white shirt tucked into tan-colored pants and an upturned wide-brimmed hat. The boy next to him has short brown hair and is dressed in a black and brown vest and pants over a bone-white shirt. His right arm, to our left, is slung across the shoulders of the blond boy and he looks off to our right with dark, unfocused eyes. The man who holds the violin is to our right of center. He sits on a stone with his body facing our left, but he turns to look at us with dark eyes under heavy brows. He has tan skin, dark gray, curly hair, and a trimmed silvery gray beard. A wrinkle under one eye suggests he may smile slightly at us. He wears a loose brown cloak with a ragged bottom hem, teal-blue stockings, and black shoes. He holds a violin on his lap like a guitar. One hand fingers a chord on the neck of the violin, which comes toward us, and the other hand holds the bow and plucks a string. A sand-colored bag with a strap lies at his feet. Two men stand to our right of the musician. One wears a tall black top hat, a brown cloak, gray pants, and black shoes. His face is loosely and indistinctly painted but he has a beard. Finally, the sixth person is a man who stands along the right side of the painting and is cut off by that edge. He wears a turban, a black polka-dotted scarf, and a long black cloak or coat. One hand clutches the scarf and the other rests on a wooden cane by his side. His chin and long, light-colored beard tuck back against the scarf, and he looks off to our left with dark eyes. There are loosely painted olive and forest-green leaves in the upper left corner. The landscape beyond is painted with indistinct areas of muted green, blue, and brown. Bits of azure-blue sky peek through puffy white and gray clouds overhead. The artist signed and dated the lower right, “ed. Manet 1862.”

SPECIAL FEATURE John Opper @modernistcollection (p. 22) Thanks to @robertkingdesign JOHN OPPER (1908-1994) Active as a painter for over six decades, John Opper was an early member of the New York School. Over the course of his career, he evolved from creating abstract gestural works, in which he drew inspiration from the natural world, to a pure form of abstraction. He stated in 1990: “I orchestrate color, line, and shape. My whole purpose is to produce an aesthetic response.” He held the conviction that “art is its own experience. It bespeaks a sublime relationship between the artist and his work.” Opper’s work is in numerous American museum collections, including the Museum of Modern Art, the Whitney Museum of American Art, and the Metropolitan Museum of Art. #johnopper #modernistcollection #abstraction #midcenturymodern #robertkingdesign #estaterepresentation #artgallery #nycart #berrycampbell

What does your dream home look like? What feelings does it invoke? . The vibes are strong in this home. Alison fell in love when she first stepped foot in this midcentury / postmodern masterpiece in NW DC. It belongs to a friend... but we’ll be keeping an eye out for one that comes on the market for her when she’s ready to buy a sexy beast like this of her own! . . #aRAREfind #design #dreamhome #interiordesign #archilovers #homedesign #interiordesignblog #realestate #acreativedc #igdc #dchomes #dcrealestate #midcenturymodern #allthingsrealestate #interiordesigner #interiordesigns #interiordesigninspo #interiordesignlovers #interiordesigngoals #dcinteriordesign #interiordesignlover #housegoals #archidaily #realestateporn #luxuryrealestate #realestategoals #mydccool #dchousehunting #dcstyle #postmodern

So we spent a good amount of time working through these nuances to create a cohesive brand that felt immediately familiar no matter the platform or context, and outlined everything in a comprehensive Brand Book along with brand architecture, audience personas, user journey, content strategy and a whole lot more. So now, whether it’s a podcast on Spotify, a video on YouTube, a marketing event at a local bar, or a sale sign outside a property, the client has a toolkit to create the content she needs while still keeping everything within the same brand sandbox.

Typically with rebrands, there are numerous use cases (or “fields of play”) that you need to carefully factor in when designing the new brand. For @theRAREdc, we had to not only consider the website, but a blog, podcast, YouTube channel, social accounts, and how the brand itself would play with the client’s broker, @compassdmv. Not to mention the client’s own personal social media account, professional social media account, AND review-based accounts like Yelp. It was... a lot. 🤪 - - - - - @theRAREdc is a lifestyle brand and real estate group by @reganagency.

Here’s the thing: rebranding is tricky. It might even be tougher than starting a new brand from scratch, because with a rebrand you’re taking something that exists (usually, across many different platforms and with an already-established audience) and then you’re distilling it down into its simplest form. You’re peeling away all the layers that aren’t working anymore, and then reimagining whatever’s left for not only the now, but for the future too. And like many things in life, a brand is a thing that’s way harder to simplify than it is to complicate. - - - - - @theRAREdc is a lifestyle brand and real estate group by @reganagency.

So stoked for our client and the launch of The RARE – a vibey new brand that celebrates the DC region’s most unique properties, provides no-nonsense, educational content about the real estate market, and offers a totally refreshing approach to buying or selling your own home. Or as the website says, “Part real estate porn. Part real estate pro.” 😏 It’s radically authentic real estate. @theRAREdc - - - - - @theraredc is a lifestyle brand and real estate group by @reganagency.
