01 // Kent State University Vehicular Wayfinding

While at Design Solutions & under the direction of Diane Sperko, I participated in the wayfinding committee at Kent State University.

My contribution was an update and standardization of documentation for the vehicular wayfinding on Kent State’s main campus.

This included the layout of messages on the panels. Fabricator: Akers Signage. Summer 2008.

02 // Portage Hike and Bike Trail

After 47 posts have been installed on the grounds of Kent State campus, I was brought in to develop the signage.

Working within an existing format and schedule of messages, I developed a modular system of elements.

Done in consultation with the Office of University Architect at Kent State University. Fall 2007.

03 // Kent State Pedestrian Campus Map

Pedestrian campus map of Kent State University. Spring 2008.

Largely, a response to a question whether the shapes of buildings are meaningful and necessary on a pedestrian map.

As the map sets out to show, a stylized approach that indicates only a relative size and mutual locations can be just as effective.

04 // Wendy Park Placemaking – EGD Summer Workshop Kent State/SEGD

Wendy Park in Cleveland is currently hardly accessible and barely utilized public space.

It was on of the three areas of Cleveland Flats considered in the 2008 EGD summer worksop at Kent State.

In collaboration with Vesela Kouzova, Lauren Wright, and Jennifer Vokoun. The above technical illustrations are all mine.
