Local, | By Correspondent April 8, 2026

 

WILLEMSTAD – Punda has introduced a new visual identity and branding strategy aimed at strengthening its position as one of Curaçao’s main destinations for both tourists and local visitors.

The initiative, led by the Downtown Management Organization (DMO), includes the launch of a new logo designed to create a clearer and more consistent image of the historic city center. According to the organization, the updated branding is intended to guide how Punda is presented, experienced, and communicated, both locally and internationally.

DMO chair Michelle Metsch emphasized that the change goes beyond aesthetics. She noted that the effort is not only about branding, but also about preserving the essence of Punda while improving how the area is positioned to the outside world.

The new strategy places strong emphasis on Punda’s cultural identity and vibrancy. By creating a more cohesive narrative, the organization aims to increase recognition and attractiveness, while also strengthening the connection between the district, visitors, and the local community.

With the rollout of the new brand, the DMO hopes to lay the groundwork for further growth and a more distinct positioning of Punda as a dynamic and recognizable urban destination within Curaçao.
