Among the many University campuses, visitors to Kent may experience a variety of architectural environments. A uniform interior sign program eases wayfinding and reinforces sense of belonging by presenting consistent information to a visitor, from Ashtabula to Geauga to Tuscarawas Campuses. An effective, consistent system of interior wayfinding tools can help those first-time visitors move confidently through facilities to reach their intended destination and provide a positive overall experience along the way.
The KSU Interior Sign Program was developed with the diverse visitor-base in mind. From students, faculty and administrators to extended community members visiting campus buildings, the signage aims to communicate wayfinding information to everyone. The program conforms to the Americans with Disabilities Act recommendations on signage and addresses all relevant building codes.
Recognizing that 黑料网鈥檚 signage is a direct extension of its brand, the Interior Sign Program detailed herein proudly displays institutional colors, fonts and brand elements. Sign materials and elements have been selected and designed in line with Kent鈥檚 commitment to quality learning and living spaces.
The quantity of interior signs needed to achieve a seamless wayfinding system requires a flexible design with ease of maintenance, updates, replacement and expansion. The KSU Interior Sign Program takes a modular approach, with typical sign panels in 7鈥, 10鈥 and 18鈥 increments and construction allowing for frequent and convenient message updates.
