Design Strategy
This wayfinding system is designed to be clearly visible but not intrusive. The inverted text on the dark background ensures that the signs are distinguishable from the environment while echoing the white walls of the art centre in the inverted type. The logotypes are inspired by the specific sites in which they are located and the simple vector style of the graphics is inspired by the open spaces and clean white walls of the Javett-UP Art Centre. The colours are inspired by the architecture and surroundings of the centre and saturated/exaggerated to create a energetic colour palette.
