This wayfinding system converts a visual blight into a useful resource that also beautifies the streetscape. With the neighborhood developing a new residential population, these were conceived as a piece of residents’ backyards, bringing greenery to an under-planted area. Each box features a plant common to the area yet familiar to residents from diverse backgrounds.
The team worked closely with the South Park Business Improvement district to identify the 23 locations, recommend the level of information detail and isolate panels to optimize the client's ability to refresh information as businesses changed hands and new buildings developed.
