191 College
American Campus Communities has been an valued partner and a pleasure to work with over the years. When they brought us on board to design, fabricate, and install the complete sign package for 191 College, a 642 room student housing development for Auburn University students in Auburn, Alabama, it was a no brainer.
Leveraging their brand design, this sign package included everything: 3x main identity signs, interior main identity signs (lobby), parking signage and garage level wayfinding, all interior entire ADA signage: unit id's, room id's, stairwell egress, elevator egress, upgraded signage for rooftop, fitness center, wall graphics in study rooms, and elevator lobbies. We designed the entire package along with the message schedules and sitemaps.
We fabricated and installed everything while coordinating with the city of Auburn, the client, and GC to ensure that we aligned with code, met client expectations, and worked within the GC's budget and deadlines.The entire budget for design, fabrication, and installation was a tad bit over $275K with a $50K D+D. In addition, we designed and fabricated the signage in their leasing office which is just across the street from the main property
In designing the wall-to-wall graphics for the study rooms on the property, we saw the opportunity to honor Auburn University alumni doing amazing, inspiring things. This decision filled these dedicated spaces with visualization and manifestation, featuring faces that were close to home.
This large project had so much heart behind it. We are honored to know that we were able to play a significant part in designing the spaces that will house the next generation, setting them up for good work.
