DIG created environmental graphics and wayfinding signage that promotes the mission and values of the Foundation Academies, a K-12 charter public school. Imagination, vision, aspiration and education are all illustrated in creative, energetic ways to inspire the students as they walk the halls of the four academies.
The walls of all four schools that comprise Foundation Academies were devoid any sense of identity and place. DIG designed graphics that function as “landmarks” throughout the schools, helping to guide, educate and inspire students, staff and visitors as they navigate the halls.
The designs are intended to reinforce the values of the academies, using branded colors to create visual experiences that enrich the imaginations and education of the students. Since each academy floor serves 3-4 grade levels, themes have been chosen that align with the student ages and grades represented within each academy.
