You Are Here: Identity & Place

Catalog description

Join us to explore how designers can express the identity of places, help people navigate complex environments, and craft memorable experiences. We will spend the semester experimenting with type, color, and pattern, while pushing beyond the boundaries of 2D surfaces to also consider materiality, dimensionality, and the environmental context. We'll also learn and apply theories of wayfinding, make custom typography and utilize it to design a variety of artifacts, and discover something new about the people and places around us.
