Brian Jacobs and his team have created a new identity for the San Francisco Opera. The redesign coincides with the arrival this year of the opera’s new general director, David Gockley. The symbol is a graphic interpretation of the sunburst chandelier in the historic War Memorial Opera House, but is also, as the opera’s press release puts it, “open to a broader interpretation, including that of the sound waves emanating from a human voice and a sense of explosive excitement.”
