Experiential Placemaking Graphics
A Complex Problem
NorQuest College sought to transform its downtown campus, turning it into a lively, immersive environment that reflected the college’s values of inclusivity, innovation, and community engagement. The challenge was to implement Experiential Placemaking Graphics that would integrate seamlessly with the architecture, creating an inspiring space that resonated with all visitors. NorQuest needed a visually impactful solution that would not only enhance the campus’s aesthetic but also serve as a testament to its mission and identity.
A Simple Solution

The Result
NorQuest’s downtown campus now serves as a welcoming landmark, connecting students, staff, and visitors with its vibrant and meaningful graphics.
