Novum World of Graphic Design (Germany)
A comprehensive environmental graphics, donor recognition, and wayfinding sign program was created for the school’s 163,000 square feet of interior spaces. One of the building’s most distinct components, a 10-foot high granite base wall which encircles the entire building, is sandblasted with a linear pattern of names of nearly 500 international innovators. The designers were also commissioned to develop design criteria and standards for all donor recognition requirements.
The project was recognized by Novum World of Graphic Design (Germany) for Design Excellence in Environmental Graphic Design.
