Scope Exterior and interior wayfinding, building identification, trail signage

Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art seamlessly blends modern architecture with nature. Nestled in a wooded ravine, its innovative design incorporates glass bridges over tranquil ponds, creating a harmonious connection between the surrounding landscape and the museum's stunning art collection.

 
 

The wayfinding and identity signage incorporates carved lettering and matte finished natural metals to integrate with the landscape and architecture. Bright color accents are introduced to pop in the natural surroundings.

 
 

The interior sign program includes wayfinding and information displays in the form of movable pylons that can be reconfigured if necessary and do not require wall surfaces, which are infrequent.

 
 

The Art Trail signage uses natural materials in combination with minimal geometric forms for a dynamic result that works harmoniously with the environment.
