In 2004, The Muni worked with the design and architecture department at Glamorgan University, which is based 5 miles from Pontypridd, in Treforest. The project was to re-design part of the interior of The Muni, including the cafe, foyer, staircase and Circle Gallery areas.
The project also included a re-branding of The Muni, covering aspects such as logo design and publicity materials such as branded headed paper.
The students were unaware of the assignment until they turned up for college one Monday mornig and told they had to present their completed group porject to the judging panel on the Friday afternoon of that week!
Each group rose superbly to the challenge, the projects produced were outstanding, and the judges found it very hard to choose a winning group.
Finally, the winning group was chosen and all the entries were on public display in the Circle Gallery.
