Branding integrated with architecture
tells your story
in a place.

We apply the principles of graphic design in the built environment through large-format experiences that connect people and brands.

Experiential graphic design is the intersection of visual communication and place, embracing a range of disciplines including architecture, interior design, and landscape design. A successful EGD program starts during the earliest stages of the discipline’s planning process (typically a programming or visioning phase) to ensure a cohesive approach where the environment and the graphic expressions are synchronized into a seamless visual experience. In collaboration with architects, we identify the landscape and narrow the audience through visioning workshops where the design concept takes shape and aligns with project goals and brand storylines.

If You Build It, How Will They Get There?

It’s curious how often wayfinding and branded signage programs are left until the tail-end of a development project, often during construction and sometimes only as a missing requirement for occupancy. There is an enormous opportunity for more thoughtfully integrated approaches to wayfinding that ensure the intended markets and neighbors of your real property assets know where they are and how to get there.

Brand Value in the Built Environment

The core function of effective signage and wayfinding is to guide visitors through a built environment effectively and effortlessly. But the best signage design goes far beyond just effective navigation. It’s also about creating positive associations and a meaningful experience.

When to Consider a Comprehensive Sign Plan

Over the course of my years of experience as an architectural signage consultant, my clients in commercial real estate, whether property managers, developers or land owners, often ask when they should pursue the development of a Comprehensive Sign Plan (CSP) for their property.
