The Design Behind Resilience: How "Keep Calm and Carry On" Engineered National Composure

Unpacking the masterstroke of wartime messaging, psychological fortitude, and symbolic architecture

It was never just a slogan. It was infrastructure. In this podcast, we dismantle the myth of “Keep Calm and Carry On” as wartime reassurance — and reframe it as a psychological architecture of obedience, control, and imperial storytelling. From the aesthetics of restraint to the elegance of manipulation, we decode how calm was weaponized not as a feeling, but as a frame. For audiences fluent in power, silence, and signal.
