Emily Carr University
Environmental Graphics—Signage & Wayfinding


As part of a selected team, developed an effective system for the University to provide navigational autonomy for domestic and international students, faculty, staff and tourists.


Through the recognition of existing problems in navigating the school and its resources, a new room numbering and signage system was fabricated in May 2007—in correspondance with handheld maps, an online component, a signage management system, and various signage maintenance guidebooks.


Research methods included surveying, data analyzation and a trip to Washington, DC to meet with G.Scott!Design to study different signage and navigation systems at the Washington School of Law and the Seattle Public Library.
